FAQs

What does 'Doc M' compliance mean?

Doc M refers to the UK's Building Regulations, specifically Approved Document M, which provides guidance on accessibility for disabled people. Compliance ensures the bathroom is designed to be safe and usable for individuals with a wide range of needs.

What is a TMV3 approved mixer tap?

TMV3 (Thermostatic Mixing Valve) approval signifies that the tap has undergone rigorous testing to ensure it can safely control water temperature, significantly reducing the risk of scalding. It also helps in reducing the risk of Legionella bacteria growth by maintaining a safe temperature.

Can this pack be installed in a left-hand configuration?

This specific pack is configured for right-hand installation. Armitage Shanks also offers a left-hand version of the Contour 21+ Doc M Pack.

Does the toilet seat come with a lid?

No, the toilet seat included in this pack is designed without a cover, as per specific accessibility guidelines. It does feature retaining buffers for stability.

What materials are the grab rails made from?

The grab rails are typically made from durable materials like stainless steel or coated metal, designed for strength and longevity in a bathroom environment.

How do I clean the basin?

Clean the ceramic basin with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Warranty details vary by retailer and manufacturer. It is recommended to check the product documentation or the retailer's website for specific warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Tap is dripping

Check if the tap is fully closed. If the dripping persists, the internal cartridge may need replacement. Contact a qualified plumber.

Grab rails feel loose

Ensure all mounting points are securely fastened to the wall. If the wall construction is inadequate, additional support may be required. Consult a professional installer.

Water temperature from mixer is inconsistent

Verify the TMV3 settings and ensure the integral thermostat is functioning correctly. Professional servicing may be required.

Basin shows signs of staining

Clean gently with a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the ceramic surface.
