Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This is a concealed shower valve, meaning the main body is installed within the wall cavity. Professional installation by a qualified plumber is highly recommended to ensure correct fitting, waterproofing, and connection to water supplies.
Compatibility:
- Water Systems: Compatible with most standard UK water systems, including combi boilers, unvented systems, and gravity-fed systems (ensure adequate pressure).
- Outlets: Designed to supply two outlets. Ensure your chosen shower heads or body jets are suitable for use with a dual-control valve.
- Minimum Pressure: Check the product specifications for minimum required water pressure for optimal thermostatic performance. Typically, this is around 0.5 to 1.0 bar.
Care:
- Clean the valve and handles regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the black finish.
- For limescale buildup, use a mild limescale remover and rinse thoroughly.
- Periodically check for leaks around the handles and trim.
- Refer to the manufacturer's guide for any specific maintenance procedures for internal components.
