Installation

   3   The supply system to which the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap is to be installed into must 

        be thoroughly flushed and cleaned to remove any debris, which may have accumulated 
        during the installation. Failure to remove any debris will affect the performance and the 
        manufacturer’s warranty of the product.  

        In areas that are subject to aggressive water, provision must be made to treat the water 
        supply prior to the supply entering any product.

   4   The maximum flow rate of the tap will only be achieved when the supply conditions are 

        achieved as quoted within the Technical Specification, with a flow condition under 1 bar 
        differential pressure. 

   5   This thermostatic mixer tap has been designed for basin mounting. It is essential that access 

        to the tap is not be obstructed for commissioning, testing, or any future maintenance that 
        may be required. 

   6   The hot and cold water supplies must be connected to the tap strictly in accordance with 

        these instructions i.e. hot water supply to the hot port of the tap. 

   7   In a situation where one or both of the water supplies are excessive, it is possible to fit a 

        pressure reducing valve or a flow regulator to reduce the pressure(s) to within the limits as 
        quoted previously. 

   8   Any thermostatic basin tap must be fitted with a back flow prevention device, such as check 

        valves to prevent the cross contamination of supplies. 

   9   The taps are supplied with integral filters and check valves in the compression connections 

        on the hot and cold supplies. 

        Independent isolation valves must be fitted in conjunction with the basin taps, as close as 
        practically possible to the water supply inlets. 

  10  It is essential that the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap should not be installed in situations 

        where there is a possibility of the tap being deprived of water or where demands for water 
        are greater than the actual stored supplies. 

  11  To ensure that the performance levels of the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap is maintained 

        (in the event of cold water failure), the temperature of the hot water supply at the point of 
        entry to the valves must be a minimum of 10˚C above the commissioned mixed water 
        discharge temperature. 

  12  The Intatherm thermostatic basin tap must not be subject to any extreme temperature 

        variations either during the installation or under normal operating conditions. 

Commissioning

IMPORTANT

 - The following instructions must be read and understood prior to commissioning 

the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap. If under any circumstances there are aspects to the 
installation / system which do not comply with the specification laid down, the tap MUST NOT be 
put into operation until the system / installation complies with our specification. However if all 
these conditions are met, proceed to set the temperature as follows; 

   1   Ensure that the system is thoroughly cleaned and free from any debris prior to the 

        commissioning the Intatherm thermostatic basin tap.
