IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Professional installation
We recommend that our products are fitted by
a fully qualified professional plumber. They should
be installed correctly and in accordance with all
local water regulations and the system protected
by non-return valves (not supplied). All products
should be accessible for routine servicing.
Suits all systems
This Lefroy Brooks product is potentially suitable
for every possible application, type of boiler and
water supply pressure. However, if your supply
pressure is below 1 bar it is advisable to fit a water
pump. For systems with combination boilers,
it is not advisable to fit pumps (refer to boiler
manufacturer).
Supply connections
The water supplies should be connected using a
suitable G½ (BSP) connector.
Supply temperature safety notice
To comply with local building regulations, current
legislation, relevant standards and codes of
practice a thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) should
be fitted (not supplied) to the hot supply. This
will restrict the temperature to a safe working
maximum temperature. Maximum allowed
temperatures vary subject to type of installation or
specification of building.
The recommended safe temperature is 38 °C.
Balancing flow
If there is a significant dierence in water pressures
between hot & cold supplies, we recommend an
in-line flow suppressor/regulator (not supplied) be
fitted. This should be fitted to whichever has the
greater flow rate.
Water quality
In hard water areas, a suitable water treatment
system should be provided to prevent limescale
deposits (calcium deposits) which may eect
the long term performance of the shower rose.
Exterior surfaces should be gently wiped with a
dry soft cloth after use to minimise water stains
and limescale deposits.
Flushing system
It is most important to flush out all pipework
thoroughly before connecting the product.
This is the single most common cause of irregular
or reduced water flow.
