thoroughly and retain for future use.
• All products manufactured and
supplied by Bristan are safe provided
they are installed, used correctly
and receive regular maintenance in
accordance with these instructions.
• If you are in any doubt about your
ability to install this product safely
you must employ the services of

wires, cables or water supply pipes.
This can be checked with the aid of an
electronic detector.
• Do not install this shower unit in a
room/environment without adequate
ventilation or an extractor fitted. This
is required to prevent condensation
forming within the unit.
• Do not operate the shower unit if
the shower head or spray hose has
been damaged or is blocked.
• Do not block the flow of water
from the shower head, by placing it
(smothering it) on your hand or any
other part of your body or foreign
object.
• Do not operate the shower if
the water stops flowing during
use or if the water is leaking from
the Mixing Valve itself. Turn o at
the mains electrical supply and refer
to the Troubleshooting section or
contact Bristan Customer Services on
0330 026 6273.
Warning: Do not operate this
product if you suspect it is
frozen. Do not site the Mixing
Valve where it might be
subjected to freezing conditions.
Warning: Before installing the
new Digital Electronic Mixer
Shower it is essential that you
thoroughly flush through the
pipe work in order to remove any
remaining swarf, solder, etc.
Failure to carry out this
procedure could cause problems
or damage to the workings of
the Mixing Valve.

• Remove all packaging and check the contents for damage before starting any
installation.
• Fitting isolation valves to the inlet feeds is required as close as is practical to
the inlet connections for ease of maintenance.
• Always switch o the power at the consumer unit and isolate the electrical
supply before making any electrical connections or if you have to remove the
cover of the Control Panel.
• This product must not be modified in any way as this will invalidate the
guarantee.

Water Requirements
This fitting needs to be installed in accordance with
the following Installation Requirements and Notes
(IRN) to ensure they meet the requirements of the
Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and
the Scottish Byelaws 2014.
The fitting shall be installed so that its outlet
discharges above the spill-over level of any fixed
appliance as indicted on the illustration to the right.
For backflow protection in premises or installations
up to, and including Fluid Category 3 and 5.
The vertical distance of the outlet above the spill-
over level shall be not less than 20mm or twice
the diameter of the inlet pipe to the fitting, which
ever is the greater. If the fitting cannot be installed
as indicated it shall be installed with a backflow
prevention arrangement suitable for the Fluid
Category.
If the shower is to be installed in a hard water area, we recommend that an in-line scale inhibitor
is fitted which will prolong the life of the shower. Please refer to your supplier for advice.
Maximum ambient temperature: 40°C.
A minimum working inlet pressure of 0.1MPa (1bar) at a minimum flow rate of 10 litres
per minute is recommended for full performance.
The maximum static inlet pressure must not exceed 1.0MPa (10bar).
The shower must be connected to a mains water supply only with a minimum working inlet
pressure of 0.1 MPa (1bar) at a minimum flow rate of 10 litres per minute. The maximum static
inlet pressure must not exceed 1.0MPa (10bar).
If it is intended to operate the shower at pressures above the maximum stated, a suitable
pressure reducing valve (PRV) should be used.
Water regulations stipulate that the shower head be ‘constrained by a fixed or sliding
attachment (hose retainer) so that it can only discharge water at a point not less than 20mm
above the spill over level of the bath or shower tray or other fixed appliance’.
If a shower head can sit within a bath, basin or shower tray, you must fit a double check valve
in the supply pipe work to prevent back siphonage. If the shower head can sit within a WC then
the air gap should be a type AUK3 not less than 20mm or twice the diameter of the inlet pipe to
the fitting, whichever is greater.
As this shower unit is already supplied with a single check valve pre-fitted in each water supply
inlet, a further single check valve would be required in such a situation, fitted in each water
supply as close as possible to the existing check valves.
Warning: The shower must not be installed in an area subject to freezing conditions.
Do not use if you suspect the shower is frozen, this will damage the shower unit.

Water Connections
Plumbing Connections
Warning: Do not solder within 300mm of the Mixing Valve or allow solder or
flux to fall onto the casing.
Important: An additional independent stop valve complying with the current
water regulations must be fitted in the mains water supply as a means of
isolating the supplies to the Mixing Valve for servicing and/or maintenance
work.
It is essential that all pipe work is flushed through to remove debris and
swarf that could otherwise damage the unit. Once the pipe work has been
flushed through, turn o the water supplies at the stop/service valves.
The supplied filter washers supplied must be fitted into both inlets.
The connecting pipe work must present 1/2 BSP connectors to the male thread on
the inlet connections.
Important: The pipe work must run as straight as possible to the Mixing Valve
minimising 90º angled bends as this could aect the inlet pressure to
the Mixing Valve reducing performance.
Pumped Inputs
It is possible to use a pump to boost a low pressure system to meet the inlet
requirements.
Note: The pump must be a Bristan Twin-End Negative Head Pump - ST NHPUMP
18TN.
Pump installation must be in accordance with the Fitting Instructions supplied with
the pump.
The Negative Head Pump is required to maintain the 0.5 bar minimum static
pressure requirement.
