Safety and Important Information
Hansgrohe products are safe provided they are installed, used and maintained in accordance with these
instructions and recornrnendations.
Please read these instructions thoroughly and retain for future use.
The plumbing installation of this shower must comply with the requirements of UK
Water Regulations/Bylaws (Scotland), Building Regulations or any other regulations specified by the local
Water Authority and supplier.
We strongly recommend that you use a plumber registered with or a member of an Association:
Institute of Plumbing (IOP) - throughout the UK
National Association of Plumbing, Heating and Mechanical Services Contractors

Dispose of plastic bags carefully
Keep children well away from the work area.
Check for hidden pipes and cables in the wall before drilling holes.
The unit must be mounted on a finished waterproofed wall surface (usually tiles).
If you are using power tools (e.g. to drill holes) wear safety glasses and always disconnect tools from the
power supply after use.
Do not operate the shower unit if the hand shower or spray hose has been damaged or is blocked.
Do not block the flow of water from the hand shower, by placing it on your hand or any other part of your
body or foreign object.
The thermostatic unit should be serviced annually by a qualified person to ensure maximum safety during
use.
The mixer incorporates check valves (page 14 pos. 4) and filters (page 14 pos 7).
The fitting of isolation valves is required (preferred location page 6 and 7 Installation Requirements)

Installation Requirements
This thermostatic mixer valve must be installed
in compliance with current Water Regulations. If
you have any doubts about the Water Regulation
requirements contact your local water services
provider or use the services of a professional
plumber.
This mixer valve is suitable for use with the following
water supply systems:
Gravity Fed Hot and Cold (pressure balanced) 0.1 - 1.0 bar
Gas Combination Boiler (multi-point) 1.0 - 10 bar*
Unvented System (pressure balanced) 1.0 - 10 bar
Pumped System 1.0 - 10 bar
IMPORTANT: If you install this mixer with a
gravity fed system, there must be a minimum head
(vertical distance) from the underside of tlie cold
water storage tank to the showerhead position of
at least 1 metre.
Before connecting the mixer, water should be flushed
through the system to remove all debris that might
otherwise damage the valve.
* If pressure is in excess of 3.5 bar, a pressure-
reducing valve should be fitted.

1. The hot and cold water outlets should be 150mm
apart (plus or minus 12mm). Hot on the left and
cold on the right (fig. 1). The recommended
plumbing fittings are “ back plate elbows (not
supplied).
2. Flush through the hot and cold water supplies.
3. Wrap PTFE tape round the S-unions and screw
into the backplate elbows. The S-unions must
protrude beyond the tiled surface between 32
and 41mm (figs.2-3).
4. Seal the gap between the S-unions and the tiles
(fig.3).
5. Screw the escutcheons onto the S-unions.
6. Fasten the thermostatic mixer onto the S-unions
using the union nuts. Align the unit and tighten
the nuts (be careful not to damage the chrome
finish). The S-unions allow inaccuracies to be
compensated for.

Commissioning and in-service
tests
Commissioning
Purpose
Since the installed supply conditions are likely to
be different from those applied in the laboratory
tests it is appropriate, at commissioning, to carry
out some simple checks and tests on each mixing
valve to provide a performance reference point for
future in-service tests.
Procedure
1. Check that:
a) the designation of the thermostatic mixing
valve matches the intended application
b) the supply pressures are within the range of
operating pressures for the designation of
the valve
c) the supply temperatures are within the range
permitted for the valve and by guidance
information on the prevention of legionella
etc.
2. Adjust the temperature of the mixed water in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
and the requirement of the application and then
carry out the following sequence:
a) record the temperature of the hot and cold
water supplies
b) record the temperature of the mixed water
at the largest draw-off flow rate
c) record the temperature of the mixed water
at a smaller draw-off flow rate, which shall
be measured
d) isolate the cold water supply to the
mixing valve and monitor the mixed water
temperature
e) record the maximum temperature achieved
as a result of (d) and the final stabilised
temperature
NOTE: The final stabilised mixed water
temperature should not exceed the values in
Table A.
Application Mixed water
temperature
Shower 43°C
Washbasin 43°C
Bath (44°C fill) 46°C
Bath (46°C fill) 48°C
f) record the equipment, thermometer etc. used
for the measurements
Table A: Guide to maximum stabilised
temperatures recorded during site
tests

In-service tests
Purpose
The purpose of in-service tests is to regularly monitor
and record the performance of the thermostatic
mixing valve. Deterioration in performance can
indicate the need for service work on the valve and
/ or the water supplies.
Procedure
1. Carry out the procedure 2. (a) to (c) on page
10 using the same measuring equipment, or
equipment to the same specifications.
2. If the mixed water temperature has changed
significantly from the previous test results (e.g. >
1 K), record the change and before re-adjusting
the mixed water temperature check:
a) that any in-line or integral strainers are
clean
b) any in-line or integral check valves or other
anti-backsiphonage devices are in good
working order
c) any isolating valves are fully open
3. With an acceptable mixed water temperature,
complete the procedure 2. (a) to (c) on page 9.
4. If at step 2. (e) on page 10 the final mixed water
temperature is greater than the values in Table
A and / or the maximum temperature exceeds
the corresponding value from the previous test
results by more than about 2 K, the need for
service work is indicated.
NOTE: In-service tests should be carried out with
a frequency which identifies a need for service
work before an unsafe water temperature can
result. In the absence of any other instruction
or guidance, the procedure described in
„Frequency of in-service tests“ may be used.
Frequency of in-service tests
TMV3*
General
In the absence of any other instruction or guidance on
the means of determining the appropriate frequency
of in-service testing, the following procedure may
be used:
1. 6 to 8 weeks after commissioning carry out the
tests given in 2. on page 9.
2. 12 to 15 weeks after commissioning carry out
the tests given in 2. on page 9.
3. Depending on the results of 1. and 4. several
possibilities exist:
a) If no significant changes (e.g. < 1 K) in
mixed water temperatures are recorded
between commissioning and 1., or between
commissioning and 4. the next in-service test
can be deferred to 24 to 28 weeks after
commissioning.
b) If small changes (e.g. 1 to 2 K) in mixed
water temperatures are recorded in only one
of these periods, necessitating adjustment of
the mixed water temperature, then the next
in-service test can be deferred to 24 to 28
weeks after commissioning.
c) If small changes (e.g. 1 to 2 K) in mixed
water temperatures are recorded in both of
these periods, necessitating adjustment of
the mixed water temperature, then the next
in-service test should be carried out at 18 to
21 weeks after commissioning.
d) If significant changes (e.g. > 2 K) in mixed
water temperatures are recorded in either
of these periods, necessitating service work,
then the next in-service test should be carried
out at 18 to 21 weeks after commissioning.
4. The general principle to be observed after the first
2 or 3 in-service tests is that the intervals of future
tests should be set to those which previous tests
have shown can be achieved with no more than
a small change in mixed water temperature.
*TMV2: The frequency of performing the in-service
tests is 1 year maximum.
