FAQs

What is a positive head application?

A positive head application means that the water source (e.g., the cold-water tank) is positioned above the shower head. The pump is designed to boost the existing water pressure in this type of system.

Can I install this shower myself?

The shower is designed for easy installation, but it may require some plumbing experience. If you are not comfortable with plumbing, it is recommended to hire a qualified professional.

What is the warranty period?

Please refer to the product documentation or contact the manufacturer for specific warranty information.

What should I do if the shower head is blocked?

Remove the shower head and clean the nozzles with a descaling solution or a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly before reattaching.

How do I adjust the water temperature?

Use the single lever to control both the flow and temperature. Rotate the lever to adjust the temperature to your preference.

What kind of cleaning products can I use?

Use a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or any products containing bleach or alcohol.

Is the pump noisy?

The Stuart Turner Techflo pump is designed to be quiet in operation, but some noise is normal.

Troubleshooting

Shower temperature fluctuates.

Check the water pressure to the shower. Ensure the hot and cold water supplies are adequate. If the issue persists, the thermostatic cartridge may need replacing.

Low water pressure.

Ensure the shower pump is functioning correctly. Check for any blockages in the shower head or hoses. Check that the pump is receiving power and is properly connected to the water supply.

Shower valve leaking.

Check all connections for tightness. Inspect the valve cartridge for damage. If the leak persists, contact a qualified plumber.
