Mira Select Flex User manual

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a quality Mira product. To
enjoy the full potential of your new product, please
take time to read this guide thoroughly, having done
so, keep it handy for future reference.
Mira shower fittings are designed to give a
satisfactory shower over a range of pressures.
These ttings are suitable for pressures between
0.1 and 5.0 bar.
These ttings can be corner mounted, maximising
space in small enclosures.
General
1. Make sure that the shower ttings are installed
by a competent installer.
2. Installations must comply with Water Regulations
(Bye-Laws, Scotland), and any other Local
Regulations and Building Regulations in force
at the time of installation.
3. Before installation carefully inspect the new
xture for any signs of damage.
4. The shower ttings should be positioned at a
convenient height for all the family. Position the
showerhead to spray across rather then towards
the opening of the cubicle and also away from
the shower control. Avoid layouts where the
shower hose will be sharply kinked. This may
reduce the life of the hose.
5. A hose retaining ring is supplied to prevent the
showerhead from dropping below the spill over
level of the bath or shower, which could lead
to contamination from backsiphonage. The
supplied hose retaining ring should meet the
great majority of user requirements for shower
installations with exible outlet ttings. However,
there will be occasions when the hose retaining
ring will not provide a suitable solution. In these
instances an outlet double check valve, e.g. the
Mira DCV-H, must be tted. The inclusion of the
Mira DCV-H will increase the required supply
pressure typically by 0.1 bar.
6. Do not t any form of ow control in the outlet
pipework.
7. Special consideration should be given to the
xing arrangements when installing onto a dry
lined, stud partition, shower cubicle or laminated
panel wall structures. Installers may wish to
obtain alternative proprietary cavity xings, or
choose other options, however, these methods
of xing are beyond the scope of this guide.
Spray Plate
The showerhead has been been fitted with a
low capacity spray plate, suitable for pressures
between 0.06 and 0.5 bar (0.6 to 5 m head).
For high pressure installations (e.g. combination
boilers) we advise that you t the high capacity
spray plate (supplied).
Cleaning
Many household cleaners contain abrasives and
chemical substances, and should not be used for
cleaning plated or plastic ttings.
These finishes should be cleaned with a mild
washing up detergent or soap solution, and then
wiped dry using a soft cloth.
The showerhead included with these ttings has
been specically designed for use in hard water
areas. The design incorporates an automatic self
drain action and pins to resist and clear limescale
build up. The face of the showerhead is cleared
with pins coming through the spray plate to stop
the build up of limescale. The pressure of the water
moves the spray plate over the pins which enables
the holes in the showerhead to be automatically
cleaned. As this is automatic there is generally no
need to touch the pins. If a need arises, care should
be taken as although the pins are blunt-ended
and perfectly safe, they may feel uncomfortable
to the touch.
Spare Parts
Spare parts are available from authorised stockists
or merchants (locations on request) or direct from
