INSTALLATION GUIDE
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 hot water supply should be connected to the
left port and the cold water supply to the right
port as viewed from the front.
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.
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, in an accessible position close to
the valve.
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 ceramic cartridges.
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 ceramic
cartridge failure.
Servicing
All serviceable parts are available to maintain your
Lefroy Brooks product.

INSTALLATION
1 Unscrew and remove the nuts, washers,
‘C’ washer and flange ring (with ‘O’ ring) from
the underside of the valve.
2 Ensure that the ‘O’ ring is located into the
recess in the underside of the flange ring. Place
the flange ring over the pre-cut Ø3032mm
hole in your work surface or pre-cast sanitary
ware. The ‘O’ ring should be in contact with
the work surface or sanitary ware.
3 Pass the flexible hoses and threaded studs
through the hole in the work surface or
pre-cast sanitary ware (maximum thickness
60mm).
4 Sit the valve into the recess in the flange ring.
Place the spout in the correct position.
5 From the underside of the work surface or
sanitary ware locate the c-washer onto the
threaded studs and secure with the washers
and nuts.
6 Ensure that the spout is in the correct
position. Using a 6mm spanner or socket
tighten the nuts suciently to secure the valve.
7 The flexible hoses can now be connected to
the appropriate supplies using compression
fittings.
8 Do not use soldered fittings as the heat may
damage the flexible hoses.
