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

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.

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.

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

TO START
Make sure you have a clear space, remember when finished and in place you need access to check your build and
able to pull the shower out for servicing or should you have the need to replace anything!
Take the shower tub and remove all the protective wrapping and fit the waste. In the side of the waste supplied in the
optional fitting kit you will notice a spigot not seen on an ordinary waste. In most cases this is blanked yet should you
have a steam version you need to gently drill this out as this item is for the steam generator drainage and will be con-
nected in the instructions later.
Now please level the tray by firstly placing the tray in its final location and then using a spirit level, adjust the tray feet
accordingly. Once you are happy with the levelling of the tray, you can pull it out to begin the main construction.
Step 1
Attach the uprights to the bottom curved rail using the ST35 screws. The
end with the groove is designed to sit on the tray, with the flat end
connecting to the roof. Please note the ‘U’ shaped channel is meant to
face inwards to allow the glass to fit correctly.
(Thinner rail without Insignia logo on)
PLEASE NOTE
The screw head needs to bypass the OUTER hole. If this does not occur
please bore out the outer hole only by about 2-4mm

Step 2
Push the “U Shape” glass seal onto the glass panel prior to insertion into the frames.
Please ensure the thin seal is on the entrance side of the panels with the thicker to
the rear side.
The next step is to attach both front fixed glass panels. In order to do this take the
glass panel and offer it up to the upright as shown by the arrows.
Step 3
The next step is to attach both front uprights and the top rail. In order to
do this insert the front uprights over the glass seal as push on tightly as
directed by the arrows in the image. Now attach the top rail (wide rail
with logo) and then screw into place using the ST35 screws
Now place your completed front frame on the front of
the shower tray as per the image on the right
Once the top rail is in place, secure the front uprights to the top
and bottom rails (from inside the cabin) using ST14 screws
Then continue to Rubbergum along the bottom curved
frame

Step 4
Apply RubberGum to the bottom of the remaining back panel and position the panel
to the completed front frame in the position shown in the image marked “1”
Once you have met the back panel inside the front upright as per the close up image
walk the panel around to the position shown in the image marked “2”
Now repeat for the other side

Step 5
Now you have locked the two back panels in position, Rubbergum the
bottom of the column and align the back panels to the central column.
Once you are happy with the alignment, run a bead of silicone up the
edge of the column and fix together using the ST20 screws and SW9
Washers as per the image.
(please note, if your column has a rubber seal at the bottom , take the
rubber off and apply silicone inside the rubber and replace)

Step 6
Align the roof with your shower walls and using the ST25 screws fix the back walls to
the roof by screwing upwards from the rear of the shower.
NOTE: If a small gap exists silicone seal later
Step 7
Fit the adjustable wheels to the top and bottom of the glass doors and ensure the wheels
are at their lowest position and hang on the inner curved rails with the wheels facing the
outside of the glass.
Once all wheels are fitted and on the rails you can adjust the wheels by turning the plastic
bolt clockwise in which in turn will pull the wheels towards the track ensuring a secure a
tight fit.
Now grease the track to ensure a smooth and long lasting operation

Shelf
Fix the chrome floating shelf brackets to your glass back panel by using the provided screws. Now attach the chrome tubed bars to your glass shelf as illustrated in the
below image. Next slide the shelf into your shelf brackets and secure by tightening the grub screw situated on the bottom of the bracket.
Accessory Installation
Please Note
Ensure all grey backing film on the rear of the glass panels are pierced through the existing glass holes
with a knife to provide an efficient smooth fitting and location of the accessories. We recommend using
a screwdriver on the smaller holes.

Hand Shower
Attach the chrome riser bar to the glass wall ensuring the water inlet is inserted
through the lower large hole and hand tightened from the rear side.
Now tighten the chrome shower holder ensuring that this will take the hand shower
itself without falling (please note over tightening will prevent the holder from sliding up
and down)
Thermostatic Probe
Insert the probe into the hole situated below the control panel roughly 6mm into the
cabin and run clear silicone around the rear side of the probe
Ozone (o3)
Unscrew the chrome pepper pot end and drop the white box upside down into the
rear hole as shown in the image. Now from the inside of the shower re-attach the
chrome pepper pot end and tighten.
Monsoon Head
Attach the grey hose from your valve to the inner black tube using PTFE tape
(please note this only needs to be hand tight. Over tightening will snap/damage the
inner black tube)
Handle
Ensuring that the inner thread is protruding out from the handle far enough, place
the handle on the outside of the door and secure by tightening the inner chrome
knob to the protruding inner thread.

Door Seals
Magnetic Seal: Push the magnetic door seal on the handle side of the glass door ensuring this is
tightly fitted.
Rear Door Seal: Place the rear door seal on the opposite side to the magnetic strip ensuring the
Shower Valve
Connect the corresponding hoses to the rear of the valve as shown.
Device output may differ from the image. Please refer to your outer chrome faceplate in-
side your Insignia shower as a reference point.
IF YOUR DIAL DOES NOT CORROSPOND TO THE APPROPRIATE DEVICE:
Turn on your water to the shower and note which output the water exits from then turn off
the water and swap over the relevant hose.
Alternatively remove the outer chrome knob by removing the chrome cap and loosening
the grub screw (please ensure not to unscrew fully as this will drop within the chrome
knob) this is found on the opposite side to the chrome pillar. Once you have succeeded in
loosening this you can now slide your faceplate to correspond to the device.

Silicone the area highlighted in red
where the glass panel frame meets at
the bottom (next to the column) Silicone fill the area highlighted in red at
the end of the bottom runner as
indicated in the image on the left.
Silicone Seal (vertical joints) - RubberGum (horizontal joints)
TESTING FOR WATER LEAKS
LEAVE THE SHOWER 24 HOURS AFTER BUILD TO ALLOW SEALANT TO CURE AND ENSURE THE SHOWER IS
AWAY FROM ITS FINAL POSITION TO ALLOW REAR VIEWING
Ensure all connections are tight and sealed including the waste, body jets and steam outlet (model dependent) on your
shower. We also advise to run a thin bead of silicone around the control panel.
Switch on the overhead shower NOT the massage jets, remember these will fire water out at you and are not suitable for
checking leaks as they would normally only operate when a person is in front of them. DO NOT AIM THE HAND SHOWER
AT THE JOINTS OF YOUR SHOWER AS THIS DOES NOT FALL UNDER “NORMAL EVERYDAY USE”. Adjust the feet
to ensure the direction of the water flows towards to the waste to prevent puddling.
Just use COLD water setting as hot will make cabin misty and condensate thus the inspection becomes very difficult. Now
on the OUTSIDE of the shower inspect each joint, factory seal, hose, clip and jet by walking from one side and going
around to the back and then to the other side finishing at the front. If you have a small leak (normally caused through
insufficient sealer or air bubble on assembly, dry the area thoroughly and reseal.
Please remember the location of the water may not be exactly where the leak is as it could have run around to a low point.
Never seal your inner fittings unless necessary, remember you will see this for the life of the shower! Again leave to cure
and check. Once you are happy check the shower functions i.e. jets for back massage, foot massage and finally hand
shower (model dependent) check your joints to these functions at the rear again. Never use the shower until all checks
have been made and the installer is 100% happy in the knowledge no leaks are present.
Important Note: It is not uncommon due to temperature changes, glass seals fitted into the frame lower horizontal and
sides can and do shrink leaving a small gap. This is normal to prevent rubbers perishing or opening later in your showers
life. Check yours now, any slight gaps simply seal neatly with a thin bead of silicone. This will prevent chances of leakage
both now or later in life.
All good?
Now push your shower FROM THE BASE and NEVER THE GLASS OR FRAME into its final resting position.
Happy Showering!
