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 shower hose connection is G½.
Flushing system
It is most important to flush out all pipework
thoroughly before connecting the product.
This is the single most common cause of poor flow.
Servicing
Suitable access should be available to aid any
future maintenance/servicing. All serviceable
parts are available to maintain your Lefroy Brooks
product (contact retailer for details).

The flow rate from the hand shower is usually governed by the flow valve or diverter that supplies water to
it. The below flow rates were obtained with the hand shower connected to flow valves fitted with ½" and ¾"
