FAQs

What type of water systems is the Aqualisa Optic Q compatible with?

The Optic Q Concealed valve is designed for HP (High Pressure) and Combi boiler systems. It requires a minimum water pressure of 1 bar. It can be used with gravity-fed systems if a suitable shower pump is installed.

Can I control the shower without a smartphone or voice assistant?

Yes, the main control is via the illuminated controller screen mounted on the wall. Smart features like app and voice control are additional conveniences.

How do I save a new shower profile?

Once you have adjusted the temperature and flow to your preference using the controller, you can typically save this setting via the controller interface or through the Aqualisa app, assigning it to a user profile.

What is the 'Eco Mode' and how does it save water?

Eco Mode adjusts the water flow rate to reduce consumption by up to 33% without significantly impacting the shower experience. This setting is typically configured by the installer.

How often should I clean the showerhead nozzles?

It is recommended to wipe the nozzles regularly, especially if you have hard water, to prevent limescale build-up. A quick wipe with a damp cloth after use is usually sufficient.

What is the warranty period for this shower?

Aqualisa showers, including the Optic Q model, typically come with a 5-year guarantee, provided the product is registered with Aqualisa upon purchase and installed correctly.

Can I use the Aqualisa app if I'm not at home?

Yes, as long as your shower is connected to your home WiFi and your smartphone has an internet connection, you can control and monitor your shower remotely from anywhere.

Troubleshooting

Shower is not heating to the set temperature.

Ensure the shower is correctly installed for HP/Combi systems. Check that the hot water supply is adequate and that the thermostatic valve is functioning correctly. If the issue persists, contact Aqualisa support.

Smart features (app control, voice control) are not working.

Verify that the shower is connected to a stable WiFi network. Ensure your smartphone or voice assistant device is on the same network. Restart your router and the shower controller. Check the Aqualisa app for any updates or service status.

Water pressure is low.

Check your home's main water pressure. Ensure no other appliances are running simultaneously that might affect pressure. If you have a combi boiler, ensure it is operating correctly. For gravity-fed systems, ensure a shower pump is installed and functioning.

Controller display is unresponsive.

Try resetting the controller by turning off the power supply to the shower for a few minutes, then turning it back on. Ensure the proximity sensor is not obstructed.

The showerhead nozzles are blocked.

Gently rub the easy-clean nozzles with your finger or a soft cloth to dislodge any limescale or debris. For stubborn build-up, use a mild vinegar solution briefly before wiping clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Installation of the Aqualisa Optic Q requires a water system pressure of at least 1 bar, suitable for HP (High Pressure) or Combi boiler systems. It is recommended that installation is carried out by a qualified plumber due to the digital nature of the valve and smart connectivity. During setup, the installer can configure the 'Eco Mode' and connect the shower to your home WiFi network for smart features.

Compatibility:

This model is compatible with gravity-fed systems if a shower pump is installed to achieve the minimum required pressure. It requires a mains cold water supply and a hot water supply from a system boiler or combination boiler. Ensure your router is within range for WiFi connectivity to use the app and voice control features.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Showerhead: The easy-clean nozzles require simple maintenance. Wipe away limescale and soap scum with a damp cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Controller Screen: Clean the illuminated control screen with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • General Maintenance: Periodically check the shower hose for any kinks or damage. Ensure the anti-twist feature remains effective.
