The valve is designed to safely handle a maximum hot water supply temperature of 80°C.
While technically possible for advanced DIYers, it is strongly recommended to hire a professional plumber, as it requires recessed wall installation and proper sealing to prevent water damage.
The valve performs optimally between 0.2 and 5.0 bar of pressure.
Yes, it supports pressures up to 5.0 bar, making it compatible with most domestic high-pressure systems.
The unit is designed to be fully serviceable from the front, meaning you can access internal components without dismantling the wall.
Yes, this model features a built-in twin diverter to manage water flow between different outlets.
Check if the integral stopcocks are fully open or if there is a blockage in the shower head or hose.
Ensure that the hot and cold water supplies are balanced within the recommended pressure range.
Isolate the water using the stopcocks and inspect the internal cartridge/seals for debris or wear.
Installation of this valve requires a recessed cavity within your shower wall, necessitating precise wall preparation and tiling. Always use a professional plumber to ensure the unit is correctly seated to prevent leaks behind the wall.
Regarding compatibility, the valve is suitable for all plumbing conditions, provided they meet the pressure requirements. To maintain the chrome finish, clean the surface only with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid abrasive chemicals or scouring pads, as these will scratch the chrome and lead to premature corrosion. Periodically check that the stopcocks function correctly to ensure emergency shut-offs remain effective.
