IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
This/these fitting/fittings needs/need 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 2004.

Requirements or Notes.
IRN R005 -QD BF C, QD BSM C
This tap or combination tap assembly has a
Type AUK2 air gap and is therefore only
suitable for installation in domestic premises
or in other premises to protect against a
backflow risk up to a Fluid Category 3, unless
additional backflow protection for the higher
risk is included in the installation.
IRN R030 -QD BSM C -Schedule 2-15 (1)
Multiple inlet fittings installed in domestic
premises or in other premises to protect
against a backflow risk up to a Fluid
Category 3, incorporating a self cancelling
diverter acceptable as a backflow
prevention device (HC) and having an
AUK2 or AUK3 air gap, shall be installed
in accordance with IRN R010.
Multiple inlet fittings installed in premises
other than domestic to protect against a
backflow risk up to a Fluid Category 5,
incorporating a self cancelling diverter
acceptable as a backflow prevention
device (HC only) and having an AUK2 or
AUK3 air gap, shall be installed in
accordance with IRN R010. Alternatively
the fitting shall be supplied in accordance
with IRN R040 unless the shower head is
constrained above the spill-over lever of
the bath, wash basin or shower tray.

Schedule 2-15 (1)
Water supplies shall be a reasonably
balanced pressures from a common source
(e.g. hot and cold supplies both from the
same storage or both from a supply pipe).
Where the fitting is supplied from
unbalanced supplies (e.g. hot and cold
supplies from separate sources) a ‘Listed’
single check valve or some other no less
effective backflow prevention device shall
be fitted immediately upstream of both hot
and cold water inlets.

BIDETS WITH OVER-RIM SUPPLY ARRANGEMENTS
(a) Bidets installed in domestic locations of
the over –rim type, that have no
ascending spray and/or flexible hose
may be supplied with cold and hot water
through single or combination tap
assemblies from either a supply pipe or
distributing pipe providing that a Type
AUK2 air gap is provided between the
outlet of the water fitting and the
spillover level of the bidet and shall also
comply with (c) below.
(a) Bidets installed in premises other than
domestic locations of the over –rim
type, that have no ascending spray and
/ or flexible hose where a higher fluid
category of risk may be present, may
be supplied
with cold and hot water through single or combination tap assemblies from either a
supply pipe or a distributing pipe providing that a Type AUK3 air gap is provided
between the outlet of the water fitting and the spillover level of the bidet as (a)
above and shall also comply with (c) below.
(c) In case of a bidet equipped with a single outlet (single flow) mixing tap, shall
also be installed in accordance with IRN R010. See Diagram 1 below
Bidets, including WCs adapted as bidets,
incorporating and ascending spray inlet or
utilising a flexible hose or an arrangement with
a spray or jet, are a fluid category 5 risk in
that the ascending spray inlet could be
contaminated with urine or other matter and
the spray or jet handset could be deposited in
the bidet or WC. Bidets of this type must not
be supplied with water from a cold or hot
water supply pipe or a common distributing
pipe. The zone of backflow risk is shown and
the highest part of this zone must be not less
that 15mm below any cistern serving the
bidet. See Diagram 2 below. 05

The method of supplying water to
an ascending spray and / or hose
and spray bidet is illustrated in
Diagram 3 and which is described
in the formal guidance, is difficult
to achieve in practice. The air gap
should be located above the fully
extended hose and spray, or zone
of backflow risk, and this height
may need to be increased to
provide sufficient water pressure,
to overcome friction loss in the
pipes and fittings, in order to
operate the ascending spray and
hose spray effectively. This method
of supplying blended water to a
bidet involves complicated control
methods as the control of water
to the bidet itself has to be linked
with the control

ensuring plinth (8) and washer (9) and
fitted between the mixer body (7) and
the basin.
3. Screw the threaded rods (12) and flexible
connecting pipes (14) into the bottom of
the mixer body (7).
4. Slide the ‘C’ shape rubber washer (10)
and ‘C’ shaped metal washer (11) onto the
threaded rods (12) up to the underside of
the basin.
5. Secure the mixer body (7) to the basin
by tightening the fixing nuts (15) onto
the threaded rods (12) until they are fully
tightened against the ‘C’ shaped metal
washer (11).
6. Turn on both water supplies and operate

Installation -Eco Basin Mixer & Eco Basin Mixer (No Waste)
1. Identify all components are present prior to starting installation.
2. Fit the mixer body to the basin/bidet using the 'C' plate fixing kit. The full
rubber washer (8) goes between the fitting and the basin and the 'C' shaped
rubber (9) and metal washers (10) on the underside of the basin to be secured
by the nuts (12) and threaded rods (11).
3. Fit the flexible tail pipes (13) by (HAND
ONLY) (DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN) inside
of the fitting and connect the hot and cold
supplies using washers (14) and suitable
fittings. (Not Supplied).
(See ADDITIONAL
SAFETY FEATURE)
4. Fit the pop up waste (if applicable) washer
(16) above and washer (18) below the
basin/bidet.
It is recommended that a silicone sealant be
applied to both sealing faces of washers 16
and 18. The plug height can be set by,
adjusting the waste rod (6) and operating
rod (19) connecting bracket(15), and the
screw in the base of the plug. Friction for
the waste mechanism can be adjusted using
the waste cap (20) (DO NOT OVER-
TIGHTEN).
5. Fully open the mixer in the mid position,
letting it run for a few minutes and check
all joints and connections for leaks.

Installation –Tall Basin Mixer
1. Identify all components are present prior to
starting installation.
2. Install the mixer body (7) to the basin, ensuring
the plinth (8) and washer (9) are fitted between
the mixer body (7) and the basin.
3. Screw the threaded rods (12) into the bottom of the
mixer body (7).
Note: The copper connecting pipes are pre-installed into the
mixer body (7). DO NOT attempt to remove them as this
could cause a leak from the connection.
4. Slide the ‘C’ shaped rubber washer (10) and ‘C’ shaped
metal washer (11) onto the threaded rods (12) up to the
underside of the basin.
5. Secure the mixer body (7) by tightening
