WARNING:
ALLWIRING AND INSTALLATION

SUITABLYQUALIFIED PERSON.
DO NOT INSTALLTHISSHOWER

We recommendthat theinstallationisdone in
the following sequence.
a. Fixingtheshowertothe wall
b. Plumbing
c. Electricalconnections
a. FIXINGTHE SHOWER TOTHE WALL
1. Position theriser railata convenient height
formajorityof users (fig.1) andmark its
position (see fig.9 foraccessory details).
2. Position theheatersothat the showerhead
cannot be immersed in the bathor shower
traywhen hanging down.
Choosea flat piece ofwall toavoidthe
possibilityofdistorting thebackplatethus
makingthe front covera poor fit.
3. Adjust thepositiontoget the most
convenient arrangementtaking the following
intoaccount.
·DO NOT MOUNT THE UNIT IN
THEDIRECT HANDSET SPRAY.
·Thehandsetmust not be ableto come into
contact with used waterinthecubicle,bath
or basin. If it can,evenafterthehosehas
beenretained by the soap-dish (fig.9),
a vacuumbreaker mustbefitted.
4. Fix theriserrail withscrews provided (fig.9)
5. Remove the front cover by undoingthe
retainingscrews at thetopandbottom of
theunitand lifting the coveroff.
6. Remove thedetachable lowersectionby
undoingthe2 x fixingscrews (fig.2).
7. Decide thepositionof the electricalcable
into the unit. Yourshower offersthe ability
to have the connections on therightsideor
theleft. Ifleft hand side is requiredthe
terminalblocks willhave to be movedfrom
theright tothelefthand side (seefig.3).

If the topentries are chosen,remove the
cable/pipe entry,and cut away (fig.4a).
If rear,bottom or side entries are chosen,
remove the relevant cable/pipe entry as shown
(fig.4b).
8. Your showeris provided with 3 wall-fixing
positionsinthe backplate.
The top-fixinghole isa ‘key-hole’ slot,
andshould be marked anddrilled first.
Tightentopscrewwithhead protruding
about 10mmfrom thewall and hookthe

andfixing thebottom position.
Youmay wishto leave bothscrews atthis
stage loose astheholes are elongatedto
allow for adjustment afterotherconnections

b. PLUMBING
WARNING:
ENSURETHAT THEMAINSWATERSUPPLY

BEFORECONTINUINGINSTALLATION.
The heatermustbe connectedtothemains cold

This musthave a minimumrunning pressure of
100kPa (1.0 bar,15 psi) at a minimumflow rate
of8litres/minute*.
The maximum static pressure mustbenogreater
than 1000kPa (10bar,150psi).
* Minimumrunningpressure must be obtained
at 9litres/minute for 9.5kW.
WARNING:
BEFORECONNECTINGTHEPIPEWORK TO
THE SHOWER, ENSURETHATTHE PIPE
WORK IS FULLY FLUSHED OUT.
1. Itis recommended that a WRAS(Water
RegulationsAdvisory Scheme) listedisolating
valveisfitted tothe incoming mains cold
waterbefore the shower unit. (see page 14)
Thiswill allow theunit tobeserviced or
exchanged withouthaving toturn off the
wateratthewater stop valve.
2. Thewaterinlet connections are plain
Ø15mm straightshanks/shafts.
They will accept a Ø15mm compression
elbow (ora Ø15mm ‘push-onelbow’ in top
orrearentryonly).
If rear entry isrequired, take the pipework
throughwall or treatastop entry with an
additional ‘Yorkshire’ elbow (soldered type)
for fittingintotherearchannel. (seefig.5)
Ø15mm copperor stainless steel pipe can be
used.
Theunused pipe entry MUST be sealed
with thebrasscompressionendcap
supplied.
Inmultiple installations,correct pipework
sizesshould be calculatedtomaintain
adequate flow toeach shower.
3. Itis permissible to use a WRAS (Water
RegulationsAdvisory Scheme) approved
sealant sparingly, avoiding excessfindingits

1. Waterisheated instantaneouslyasitflows
overtheheating elementsinthe heat
exchanger (fig.15).
2. Theheaters areonly switched on when
sufficient water is flowing.
This is doneautomatically with a switch
whichworks onwaterpressure.
3. Thewateris turned onand off bythe
solenoidvalve built intotheshower.
This is switched onwhen Button‘C’ is
pressed.
4. The flow ofwateris automatically held atthe
level setbytheusereventhoughthe supply
pressure mayvary (see ‘Advice toUsers’).
5. If the watersupply fallsbelow a setlimit,the
pressure switchwill operate and switchoff
thepower tothe elements, resulting ina cold
shower (see ‘Advice toUsers’onpage.2) .
6. As afurther safeguard, a thermalcut-out
switchesthe poweroff if thewater
temperatureclimbs above thesetlimit and
the ‘autoreset’lightwill illuminate.
This cut-out,whichgivesanaudible click,
may alsooperatedue toresidual heatwhen
theshowerisswitchedoff.
Itwill reset itself if wateris runthroughthe
showerfor 10to20 seconds,and the ‘auto
reset’light will goout.
7. The pressure reliefdevice is to safeguard
against abnormal pressure conditions, and
provides a level of appliance protection
should anexcessive build up of pressure
occurwithintheshower.
Effectof SeasonalIncomingWater
TemperatureChanges
Therequired watertemperature isachieved by
adjusting therateofwaterflow.
The diagram shows theprinciple involved in
relatingtemperature
risetoflow rate.
Thehigherthewater rate thelowerthe
temperature and vice versa.
The temperature ofthe watersupplied fromthe
mains canvary considerably throughout theyear
from 5to 20°C.
This means thatinthewinter,flow rate will be
lessthaninthesummertoachieve thesame
outlet temperature.
In summer the ‘Economy’ (2x redbars) power
setting may give adequate hot water.
Effectof Other WaterDevices onIncoming
Water Supply
Your showeris designed to stabilise
temperature changescaused by water
pressurefluctuations.
Thesecan resultfromtoiletsbeing flushed or
taps being turnedonandoff.
Whenthishappensyourshowering temperature
will beheldwithin a controlled band,provided
that the minimumpressurerequiredbythe
shower ismaintained.
Your showerrequires a minimumrunning
pressure of 100kPa (1.0 bar, 15 psi) at a
minimumflowrateof8litres/minute.
(9litres/minute for9.5kW).
Atpressuresabove 100kPa (1.0 bar,15 psi) at a
minimumflowrateof8litres/minute.
(9litres/minute for9.5kW), it willminimise
temperature fluctuationsas detailed above.
If thewaterpressure fallsbelow 100kPa
(1.0 bar,15 psi) at a min
imumflowrateof
8litres/minute, (9litres/minute for9.5kW),
itislikelythatthepressure switch willturnoff
the powertotheheating elements,resultingin a

Blockage inthewater ways (particularly the

Note: You may be chargedfor a service cal l
