Plumbing Connections
Plumbing to be carried out before wiring
DO NOT use jointing compounds on any pipe
fittings for the installation.
DO NOT solder fittings near the shower unit
as heat can travel along pipework and
damage components.
Compression fittings MUST be used to
connect to the inlet of the shower.
Note: We recommended that a WRAS (Water
Regulations Advisory Scheme) listed isolating
valve be fitted between the rising main and
the unit. This will allow the unit to be serviced
without having to turn off the house water at
the stop valve.
The unit should be connected to the mains
COLD water supply. This must have a
minimum running pressure of 0.07 MPa
(0.7bar / 10 p.s.i.) and a maximum pressure
of 1MPa (10bar / 145 p.s.i.).
This unit can also be fed from a header tank
provided this has a minimum head of 7 metres
(23ft).
IMPORTANT: Before completing the
connection of the water supply to the inlet of the
shower, flush out the pipework to remove all
swarf and system debris. This can be achieved
by connecting a hose to the pipework and
turning on the mains water supply long enough
to clear the debris to waste.
A blockage in the waterways (particularly the spray
plate of the handset and solenoid valve) will prevent
the unit from working correctly.
The shower is designed to have an open outlet and
should ONLY be used with the fittings recommended
by the manufacture.
Installation Procedure
Turn off the water supply either at the mains
stopvalve or the isolating stopvalve.
For ease of access to the inlet fitting the right hand
side of the shower has a removable inlet cover. See
Diagram 1. Also remove the backplate side access
trimplate shown in Diagram 1.

Switch OFF electricity at ceiling/wall isolating switch,
wait a few seconds, switch on again.
(Note: The shower should be switched OFF each
time after use at the ceiling/wall isolating switch.
Note: If there is no water flowing then the shower will
automatically switch OFF after about 5 seconds.
Check the water supply is turned ON.
Check ceiling/wall isolating switch is ON.
Check power is ON.

PROFESSIONAL SERVICE CHECK LIST
This additional checklist is provided for the benefit of the qualified service representative.
WARNING! Switch Off The Electricity At The Isolator Before Removing The Front Cover To
Make Checks.
a) Poor temperature control.
b) Water too COLD
c) Poor or no control over water flow.
d) No water when button are pressed.
e) Unit has been switched OFF using
START/STOP button but can be heard
heating the water.
f) Pressure relief valve operated.

Check inlet thermistor to see if it is in circuit.
Check for blockage in the inlet filter.
Check circuit through thermal cut-out.
Check circuit through all 3 elements.
Test should be done using a low voltage resistance
meter whilst the power is switched OFF at the isolating
switch.
Check working voltage.
Replace flow valve assembly.
Check water supply. Check circuit through solenoid coil.
If OK replace logic PCB.
Replace triac PCB.
Check for cause of high pressure and remove it.
Replace pressure relief valve. (Not covered under
Guarantee).

Unit has been set with Temperature limiter set at 43°C.
Flow transducer fault.
Check that internal blade “spins” when the water flows:
If not, replace transducer.

f) Shower runs on about 5 seconds after
pressing Start / Stop Button then
switches OFF.
This is normal. Unit is in phased shutdown mode
indicated by the relevant LED flashing.
Re-press the High (or Eco) button and re-adjust the
temperature dial to give the desired temperature.
Re-press the High (or Eco) button and re-adjust the
temperature dial to give the desired temperature.
g) The flow rate is too low but the
temperature is correct.
h) The temperature dial is at its hottest but
the temperature is too low.
