Avoid layouts where the shower hose will be sharply kinked. This may
reduce the life of the hose.
A Hose Retaining Ring is supplied to prevent the handset from dropping
below the spill-over level of the bath or shower tray, which
could lead to contamination from back-siphoning. The supplied Hose
Retaining Ring should meet the majority of user requirements for
shower installations with exible outlet ttings. However, there will be
occasions when it will not provide a suitable solution. In these instances
an outlet double checkvalve, e.g. a Mira DCV-H, must be tted. This
will increase the required supply pressure typically by 0.1 bar (see section
“Accessories”).
Supply pipework must be ushed to clear debris before connecting to
the appliance.
To avoid damage to the case when soldered ttings are used, pre-solder
the pipework and ttings before connecting them to the inlet connector
assembly. Refrain from applying excessive force when making any
connections. Always provide mechanical support when making the
plumbing connections.
The appliance is tted with a brass inlet compression assembly for
connecting to a 15mm supply pipe from the top, bottom or back. Double
checkvalves, if tted in the inlet supply to the appliance, can cause a
pressure build-up, which could exceed the maximum static inlet pressure
and damage the appliance.
