ASSEMBLY AND PLUMBING
THIS PRODUCT BUILD IS RATED SUITABLE FOR DIY PURPOSES PROVIDING THE CUSTOMER IS OF ABOVE AVERAGE SKILL AND FEELS CONFIDENT IN
THEIR ABILITY. ONLY YOU THE CUSTOMER WILL KNOW THIS SO BEFORE ANY ATTEMPT IS MADE TO ASSEMBLE, READ THROUGH THE FOLLOWING
PAGES IN DETAIL THEN DECIDE. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT USE THE SERVICES OF A PROFESSIONAL. IN PICKING SUCH, ALLOW THEM TO DECIDE IF

REMEMBER THE BEST IS NOT ALWAYS THE CHEAPEST!

DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS PRODUCT WE HIGHLY ADVISE THE PURCHASE AND FITTING OF A WATER SOFTENER
(PLEASE NOTE LIMESCALE BUILD UP MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR SHOWER AND WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY)
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO HOUSE MAINS
WHEN YOUR ITEM IS ASSEMBLED ALWAYS USE THE SERVICES OF A FULLY QUALIFIED ELECTRICAN COMPANY TO COMPLETE THE CONNECTION FROM
SHOWER TO THE HOUSE SUPPLY. LAWS DEMAND IN MANY CASES YOU DO THIS AND YOUR WARRANTY IS VOID IN REGARDS TO THE ELECTRICAL
ITEMS IF THIS IS NOT UNDERTAKEN.
YOURS AND OTHERS SAFETY IS PARAMOUNT. NEVER ATTEMPT THIS YOURSELF!
REMEMBER:
These showers are designed to be free standing and movable from their location should you have the need to replace anything. ALWAYS USE Flexible braided water
inlet pipes (not supplied) at least a metre long (not central heating plastic type!)
Always use a flexible waste pipe from your house supply to the shower .
NEVER FIX with rigid pipes, NEVER FIX the unit to the wall.
DURING BUILD, LIKE ALL SHOWERS CORRECT SEALING IS IMPERATIVE.
If you are using Insignia’s RubberGum, please ensure the product does not come in contact with your silicone as this will cause the RubberGum to fail and
will not adhere as intended.
ATTENTION
ALWAYS FIT EASY TO GET TO ISOLATION TAPS ON BOTH THE HOT AND COLD WATER SUPPLY (NOT SUPPLIED). JUST LIKE A
DISHWASHER OR WASHING MACHINE, THIS PRODUCT MUST BE ISOLATED WHEN NOT IN USE.
FLEXIBLE SUPPLY HOSES (NOT SUPPLIED) COUPLE HERE AS ORIGIN OF SUPPLY

TOTAL ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Voltage Rating 220 -240AC
Frequency Rating 50HZ
Power Rating 25W
Your electrical contractor should understand ALL legal requirements of connection before undertaking any work or installation.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES UNDERTAKE THIS YOURSELF!!!
Note for electrician. This product comes with 3 amp plug. We leave it this way for you to connect this your own way due to continued additions
to current regulations.
1) Connect within current laws and IP directives.
2) (Preferred) Wire into isolated fused feed connecting directly to the house consumer/service box.
Always use protection against electrical surge. Your shower should be treated the same as a home computer. A surge protector should
eradicate the possibility of either the transformer or control panel being burnt out.

Whilst the next steps show you how to assemble your shower we want to make sure you have a correct build to ensure you get a trouble free shower. Therefore our advice
is to follow the instructions and perform a dry run to ensure you are confident with the build and you understand fully how the unit is assembled. When we use the word
“DRY RUN” this means you do not silicone anything, just simply construct the shower, align, drill and screw everything together. Once you are happy with the build take the
unit apart and carry out the final fix.

of charge during or after the build. Any claims can only be within the timescale permitted (48 hours after delivery) and

Pressure Requirements from your house supply
We recommend a bar pressure between 2.5 and 3.4 BAR. If you have a combi boiler system no problem should be experienced. If you have a gravity feed older type
installation (hot water tank type usually less than 1 bar) you will almost certainly need a pump. We cannot advise on which type of pump is used, location or design because
all house plumbing layouts vary. This is a job for your installer/plumber. The end delivery however must fall within the scope above.
Important Note Do not exceed 3.4 BAR pressure under any circumstances. Warranty is void if so as damage will occur. If you have a combi supply, please use a pressure
reducing valve if required to lower the BAR pressure to the shower.
Please Remember that this product is free standing and is designed to be pulled away from the wall.
The waste hose must be of a flexible type (1m flexible waste supplied).
The water supply pipes need to be at least 1 metre in length and must be that of a flexible braided type (not supplied).
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE BRAIDED HOSES AS IT CAN CAUSE THE CONNECTION TO POP AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF USE
