FAQs

What water pressure is required for this shower?

The Bristan Qubo is designed to work with both high and low pressure water systems, offering flexibility for different home plumbing setups.

How do I set a maximum temperature?

The shower has a pre-set safety stop at 38°C. You can select a higher temperature by using the override function, but this should be done with caution.

Is the riser rail height adjustable?

Yes, the riser rail is adjustable to accommodate users of different heights.

What is included in the box?

The box includes the bar shower valve, hose, riser rail, and a multi-function handset with rub-clean anti-limescale properties.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners to prevent damage.

What happens if the hot or cold water supply fails?

The shower features an automatic shut-off mechanism that will stop the water supply in the event of a failure in either the hot or cold water line, ensuring safety.

Can I replace the handset with a different one?

While the included handset is designed to work optimally with the valve, standard shower hoses and handsets are generally compatible, provided they use the same thread size.

Troubleshooting

No water or low water flow

Check that the isolation valves are fully open and that there are no blockages in the hose or handset. Ensure your water system is providing adequate pressure.

Temperature is too hot or too cold

Verify that the hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected to the valve. Adjust the separate temperature control dial. If the issue persists, check the thermostatic cartridge for blockages or damage.

Leaking from the valve or connections

Ensure all connections are securely tightened. Check seals and washers for wear or damage and replace if necessary. If leaking from the valve body, contact customer support.

Handset not spraying correctly

Clean the rub-clean nozzles by rubbing them with a finger or cloth to dislodge any limescale. Check the hose for kinks or blockages.
