Troubleshooting

No hot or cold water flow

Check that the hot and cold water supply valves are fully open. Ensure your water system meets the minimum pressure requirement of 0.5 bar.

Temperature fluctuations during use

Verify that the water system pressure is at least 0.5 bar, ideally 1.0 bar for optimal thermostatic performance. Ensure no other appliances are drawing significant water during use.

Low water pressure

Check for blockages in the shower head or any inline filters. Confirm that the water system's overall pressure meets the recommended levels.

Anti-scald device not functioning

Ensure the thermostatic valve is correctly installed and functioning. If the issue persists, consult a qualified plumber.
