SUITABILITY
This extension kit is for use with Black lever (BL) and Godolphin (GD) models
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. All products and connections
should be accessible for routine servicing.
About this kit
The standard concealed shower valve is designed
to allow up to a 50mm wall thickness, this
extension kit will enable you to increase the wall
thickness to a maximum of 75mm.
If you have a wall cavity deeper than 70mm to
conceal the valve, we recommend the valve is
secured to a wooden baton on the mounting wall
to reduce the cavity depth (or fit this extension kit
to extend the shower valve by 25mm).
