FAQs

What is the warranty period for this shower valve?

The RAK Ceramics Feeling Round Horizontal Dual Outlet Thermostatic Shower Valve comes with a 15-year warranty from the manufacturer.

Does this valve come with a shower head?

What is the required water pressure for this valve?

The valve requires a minimum water pressure of 0.5 bar and can handle a maximum of 5 bar.

Can I use this valve with a combi boiler?

Yes, this valve is generally compatible with combi boilers provided the water pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.5 bar.

How do I clean the matt black finish?

Clean the matt black finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or chemical solvents, as they can damage the surface.

Is this valve suitable for a power shower?

The valve has a maximum pressure of 5 bar. If your power shower system exceeds this, you may need a pressure-reducing valve installed.

What material is the valve body made from?

The tap body material is brass.

Troubleshooting

Water temperature is inconsistent.

Ensure the minimum water pressure of 0.5 bar is met. Check that the thermostatic cartridge is functioning correctly and is not blocked by debris. Professional servicing might be required.

Low water flow from one outlet.

Check for blockages in the outlet or showerhead. Ensure the diverter is correctly positioned to direct water to the desired outlet. Verify that the water pressure meets the minimum requirement.

Valve is difficult to operate.

Over time, limescale can build up. Gently clean the handles and controls. If stiffness persists, a professional may need to service the internal cartridge.

Leaking from the valve body.

This usually indicates a faulty seal or cartridge. The valve will need to be turned off at the mains, and a plumber should inspect and replace any worn internal parts.
