b. Turn o the water supplies.
WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Hot Water Maximum: 65˚C
Recommended 60-65˚C
Cold Water Minimum: 5˚C
Recommended 10-15˚C
Operating Pressure Range: Min. 0.2 bar, Max. 5.0 bar
Dream™ valves are suitable for gravity stored, gravity boosted, balanced
high pressure and combination boiler systems.
N.B. The combination boiler MUST have a minimum rating of 24kW
(80,000 Btu) and be of the type fitted with a fully modulating gas valve.
Boiler performance may aect outlet temperature.
Operating pressures on hot and cold supplies should be kept as even as
possible in order to ensure the maximum eciency of the mixer.
When water pressure is higher than 5 bar, a pressure reducing valve (not
supplied) must be fitted before the mixer. A setting of 3 bar is recommended.
Before making any pipe connections all supplies MUST be
thoroughly flushed to remove any debris.

Arrange the pipework so that the hot water is connected from the
left to the inlet marked ‘H’ and the cold from the right to the inlet
marked ‘C’, on the valve body.
For single outlet: The outlet pipe connects to the top of the valve
body.
For dual outlet: The fixed head or bath fill outlet pipe connects to the
left outlet (Outlet 1) on the valve body.
The adjustable head or hand shower outlet pipe connects to the right
outlet (Outlet 2) on the valve body.
For triple outlet: The fixed head outlet pipe connects to the left
outlet (Outlet 1) on the valve body. The adjustable head outlet pipe
connects to the right outlet (Outlet 2) on the valve body. The bath
fill outlet pipe connects to the bottom outlet (Outlet 3) on the valve
body.
For all models: Ensure sucient pipe length; the pipe ends insert
into the valve inlets and outlet(s) a minimum of 10mm.
