Product Information

Full details

This Nuie Sequential Thermostatic Shower Valve in Silver is ideal for homeowners seeking precise control over their shower experience. Its key benefit is the combined control of temperature and flow with enhanced safety features. A minor caveat is the 12-month manufacturer's guarantee, which excludes serviceable parts. This shower valve offers sequential control for temperature and flow, is suitable for various water systems including unvented, combi, gravity, and mains pressure, and features single-piece cartridge technology for reliability. It's factory set at 43°C to prevent scalding and maintains temperature stability within +/- 2 degrees, with failsafe protection for both hot and cold supplies, making it suitable for high-pressure systems.

FAQs

What types of water systems is this shower valve compatible with?

This valve is compatible with unvented supplies, combi boilers, gravity systems, and mains pressure systems.

What is the factory preset temperature, and can it be changed?

The valve is factory set at 43°C to prevent scalding. It can be adjusted according to the installation instructions if a different temperature is desired.

What is the warranty period for this shower valve?

The manufacturer provides a 12-month guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials, excluding serviceable parts, provided it is installed and used according to instructions.

What is the minimum water pressure required for this valve to function?

The minimum operating pressure required is 0.2 Bar.

How does the failsafe feature work?

The failsafe mechanism is designed to shut off the water supply automatically in case of a failure in either the hot or cold water supply, preventing burns or sudden cold shocks.

How do I clean and maintain the shower valve?

Clean the valve with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals to preserve the chrome finish.

What does 'sequential control' mean for this shower valve?

Sequential control means you operate the valve in a sequence: typically, you turn it on and set the temperature first, then adjust the water flow. This simplifies operation.

Troubleshooting

No water flow or very low flow

Check if the minimum operating pressure of 0.2 Bar is met. Ensure there are no blockages in the pipes or showerhead. Verify that the valve is correctly installed and all isolation valves are open.

Water temperature is too hot or too cold

Verify that the valve is correctly set to the desired temperature. Check the hot and cold water supply temperatures. If the issue persists, refer to the installation manual for recalibration steps or contact a professional plumber.

Temperature fluctuations during use

Ensure the valve is functioning correctly and the +/- 2-degree stability range is not being exceeded by external factors (e.g., simultaneous high water usage elsewhere). Check for any debris in the cartridge that might affect performance.

Leaking from the valve

Check all connections to ensure they are tight. Inspect the valve for any visible damage. If the leak persists, the internal cartridge or seals may need replacement, which could be covered under warranty or require professional service.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This valve is designed to work with unvented supplies, combi boilers, gravity systems, and mains pressure systems. It requires a minimum operating pressure of 0.2 Bar and performs optimally at higher pressures.

Setup: During installation, it is crucial to take extra care to avoid damaging the fittings. Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free. The valve is factory set at 43°C, but it can be adjusted if necessary according to installation instructions.

Care: To maintain the finish and functionality, clean the valve with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the chrome surface. Regularly check for any signs of leaks or wear and tear.
