Combi HP thermostatic mixer shower

washer.
Make sure the inlet elbows are positioned the
correct way. Offer the valve up to the mounting
bracket and secure using the screws provided
(fig.42).
Complete the pipework to the shower marking
off the length to enter the elbows. Remove the
valve and cut the pipes to length.
Flush pipework to clear the system of all
debris and check for leaks.
Important: The inlet elbows contain check
valves that may be damaged if debris is not
flushed through prior to fitting.
Where this is not possible refer to the ‘flushing	T00260
procedure’ on page 20.
Refit the valve to the mounting bracket and
pipework. Tighten the inlet nuts and inlet elbow
grub screws.
If fitting a fixed head, refer to the ‘Fitting the
fixed head’ section and complete the outlet
pipework to the fixed head position.
Note: The outlet pipe for the fixed head should
protrude from the surface of the wall between
50 mm and 65 mm. Before fitting the fixed head
to the wall, connect a hose to the pipework and
direct to waste.
If fitting a riser rail kit refer to ‘Fitting the
bulkhead’ and complete the outlet pipework.
Before fitting the bulkhead to the wall, connect
the shower hose and direct it to waste.	T00261
Open the isolating valves to the shower and
flush through. Make sure the flow control
is opened fully and the temperature control
is rotated to ‘Hot’ and then to ‘Cold’ (if
necessary depress the maximum temperature
override button). Check for leaks and remedy if
necessary.
Make good the wall surface and make sure
the plastering/sealing is taken tight to the pvc
shroud (fig.43). Should the shroud protrude
beyond the wall surface, trim flush with a sharp
knife (fig.34).
Offer the flush mount plate up to the finished
surface. Make sure the valve and the plate are
aligned and mark the ‘arrowed’ fixing holes
(fig.35). Remove the flush mount plate then	T00262
