FAQs

Is professional installation required?

Yes, due to electrical and plumbing requirements, professional installation by a qualified electrician and plumber is strongly recommended for safety and optimal performance.

Can this be installed in a corner?

Yes, the Triton UniQ Aspirante is designed to be installed on a flat wall or in a corner.

What size is the showerhead?

The showerhead is 200mm in diameter, providing a rainfall effect.

How does the phased shutdown feature work?

The phased shutdown activates after the shower is turned off, flushing residual hot water from the unit. This helps to reduce limescale buildup inside the shower.

What is the benefit of the telescopic arm?

The telescopic arm allows you to adjust the height of the showerhead, providing a more personalized and comfortable showering experience for users of different heights.

How do I clean the showerhead?

Gently rub the rubber nozzles with your finger or a soft cloth to dislodge any limescale. For tougher deposits, you can remove the showerhead and soak it in a mild descaling solution.

What type of water system is it compatible with?

It is designed for use with mains cold water systems.

Troubleshooting

Shower not heating

Check the power supply and ensure the circuit breaker is engaged. Verify that the water flow is sufficient. If the issue persists, professional inspection may be required.

Low water pressure

Ensure the water inlet is not blocked. Clean the showerhead nozzles by gently rubbing them or soaking in a descaling solution. Check for any kinks or blockages in the water pipe.

Unit making unusual noise

This could indicate limescale buildup. Ensure the phased shutdown is functioning correctly. Regular cleaning of the showerhead may help. If noise is persistent or severe, consult a professional.

Controls not responding

Ensure the unit is powered on. Clean the soft-touch buttons with a damp cloth. If illuminated buttons are not working, check the power supply and consider a professional assessment.
