FAQs

What is the minimum water pressure required for this shower system?

The system requires a minimum water pressure of 0.5 Bar to operate effectively.

Can I use this shower with a combi boiler?

Yes, this shower is compatible with combi boilers, provided the system pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.5 Bar.

How do I clean the shower heads?

The shower heads feature rub-clean nozzles. Gently rub these nozzles with your finger or a soft cloth to remove limescale and ensure optimal water flow.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Architeckt concealed valve system comes with a 5-year guarantee.

What materials is the shower made from?

The shower is constructed from solid brass and 304-grade stainless steel, finished in polished chrome.

How do I switch between the drencher head and the handset?

Use the integrated diverter, typically part of the concealed control mechanism, to switch the water flow between the drencher head and the wall-mounted pencil handset.

Is professional installation necessary?

Due to the concealed nature of the installation, professional plumbing is highly recommended to ensure correct fitting, waterproofing, and long-term reliability.

Troubleshooting

No water or low flow from shower heads.

Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure the system pressure is above 0.5 Bar. Verify that the diverter is correctly set to the desired outlet. Check for any blockages in the shower heads or the inlet filters.

Water temperature is too hot or too cold.

Ensure the thermostatic control is set correctly. If the issue persists, it may indicate a problem with the hot or cold water supply or the thermostatic valve itself, requiring professional inspection.

Difficulty switching between shower heads.

Ensure the diverter mechanism is functioning smoothly. If stiff, it may require lubrication or adjustment by a qualified plumber.

Leaking from controls or shower heads.

Check all connections are secure. If leaks persist, internal seals may need replacement, which typically requires professional service.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek, minimalist design with concealed controls.
  • Offers versatile showering options with two distinct outlets.
  • Thermostatic valve provides stable and safe water temperatures.
  • Constructed with high-quality, durable materials for longevity.
  • Adjustable handset adds user convenience and personalized comfort.

Cons

  • Concealed installation can be more complex and costly.
  • Requires a minimum water pressure of 0.5 Bar for optimal performance.
  • Maintenance may require accessing the wall cavity.
  • Polished chrome finish can show water spots if not wiped dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a concealed system, meaning the main valve body is installed within the wall cavity. Professional plumbing is recommended for installation to ensure correct connections and waterproofing. The G1/2" inlet connections are standard. Ensure the wall cavity is prepared to accommodate the valve depth and associated pipework.

Compatibility: The system is compatible with water systems operating between 0.5 Bar and 5.0 Bar pressure. It is suitable for gravity-fed systems (if pressure meets minimum) and high-pressure systems like combi boilers or pumped unvented systems.

Care: To maintain the polished chrome finish, regularly wipe the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the finish. For the rub-clean nozzles on the shower heads, gently rub them with a finger or cloth to dislodge any limescale buildup.
