General:
Methven recommends this product is installed by a licensed plumber in compliance with all
relevant regional regulations.
After installation all connections must be checked for leaks.
All outlets used primarily for personal hygiene shall deliver water at a safe temperature as per
regional regulations.
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure a waterproof seal is achieved.
NOTE: Some showers may not provide an effective shower when used with gravity fed heated
water systems or where pressures are less than 150kPa/1.5bar at the outlet. Additionally showers
with flow rates of less than 9L/min may not allow the following to function correctly:
- some instantaneous water heaters
- some tempering valves
- some thermostatic mixing valves
Low and Unequal Pressure:
Never use abrasives or abrasive cleaning agents to clean this product. Clean regularly with
contamination free warm soapy water and a damp soft cloth.
A filter washer should be installed in the hose cone on the water outlet and it should be
cleaned periodically.
If shower performance is compromised by the build-up of lime-scale, soak in limescale
remover for up to 10 minutes. Do not use products containing chlorine bleach or
hydrochloric acid as these can damage the shower. Always rinse the shower thoroughly after
cleaning to remove cleaning products that can damage the shower.
