KUDOS ULTIMATE 1 Series User manual

CLEANING
For frame work and fixings use only warm soapy water and damp
cloth/sponge on a regular basis. Do not use abrasive scouring powders,
chemicals or aerosol products - these may result in damage to the surfaces.
See instruction below for glass cleaning advice.
IMPORTANT
Check that you have the correct packs and shower tray to
suit your installation
Check appearance of shower enclosure and tray. Any
defects must be reported to Kudos Shower Products
before assembly/installation. Claims for imperfections will
only be accepted prior to installation.
Ensure shower tray is installed level in all directions.
Prior to installation, any gap or crevice between tray and
walls must be filled with silicone sealant flush with the top
of the tray.
Waterproof walls (using tiles/shower panels etc.), before
installing the shower enclosure.
Care should be taken when drilling into walls to avoid
hidden pipes and electrical cables.
The blended water to the handset can be supplied from
above or below the enclosure:
OVERHEAD WATER SUPPLY:
Maximum ceiling height allowable (from top of tray) =

supply is clear of any structural framework.
UNDER-TRAY WATER SUPPLY:
Overall height of enclosure (including shower tray) =
2036mm / 6’ 8”
We recommend that you fit lagging to the 2m flexible
hose if it is being installed into a situation where the
ambient temperature may drop below 5c.
Choose your Quartz Processor site and install.
Run data cable to recommended position for shower
control.
Connect 2 metre flexible hose to Quartz Processor.
NB- This connection must be carried out at this stage if
it is not possible to make the connection after the
shower tray has been installed, i.e, when installing the
tray directly onto a solid floor.
Install shower tray.
Apply finish to walls e.g. tiling.

Your Kudos product is treated with Life Shield on the inside and
outside surface. Though this helps prevent the build up of lime-
scale and soap deposits, the glass still needs regular
maintenance. We recommend the use of a detergent and aroma
free glass cleaner (A 50/50 mix of vinegar and water works well)
Strong detergents and abrasives can damage the coating.
After showering use a squeegee to remove droplets of water from
the glass.
