Designed to comply with and be used within systems designed to BS 6700.
BS 6700 recommends the temperature of stored water should never exceed 65°C.
A stored water temperature of 60°C is considered sufficient to meet all normal
requirements and will minimise the build up of lime scale in hard water areas.
If the fitting is installed at low pressure (tank fed), then the minimum distance from the
highest installed position of the outlet to the underside of the cold tank should be at
least 10 metres to ensure adequate performance.
This shower should be installed in compliance with the Water Regulations. Where
the supplies are unbalanced, i.e. Hot water from cylinder tank / cold from the mains,
approved check valves must be fitted in the supply pipes.
For further details contact your Local Water Authority.

1. Prepare water supply pipes
Terminate suitable pipework inside the
wall cavity / stud partition with
145-165mm pipe centres and 1/2" BSP
female connectors.
Flush through the pipework to ensure
removal of any debris.
Important: The pipework and 1/2" BSP
female connectors must be secure and
rigid so that it is unable to move. If
installing the pipework in a stud
partition, a wooden batton may be
required to secure the female connectors
(as shown).
The 1/2" BSP female connectors must be
installed in such a position that when the
elbow shrouds are screwed fully onto the
elbows and the valve is fitted to the wall,
the elbow shrouds are flush against the
finished wall surface. This is to ensure
that the valve can not move.
Note: If 1/2" female connectors are not
used the compression nut and olives can
be used however the pipework must be
secure and rigid so that it is unable to
move.
2. Finish Wall
Finish the wall surface using
plasterboard and tiles.
3. Fit Elbows
Screw the elbows into the 1/2" BSP
female connectors using a suitable thread
sealant.

Important: The riser clamp must be fitted
200mm above the centre of the shower valve to
ensure maximum security.
6. Fit Shower Head
Remove the grub screw from the top of the
showerhead and remove the backplate. Push the
backplate into the top of the riser ensuring the
nipple is fully fitted into the riser and mark the
position on the wall surface. Remove the
backplate from the riser tube and unscrew the
centre nut to reveal the backplate fixing.
Position the backplate fixing onto the wall at the
marked position and mark the fixing holes onto
the wall surface. Drill suitable holes and secure
the backplate to the wall using suitable
fixings (Not supplied).
Fit the backplate into the top of the riser tube
and onto the backplate fixing and secure with the
centre nut. Replace the shower head and secure
