DANGER - RISK OF SCALDING:
Your Kingkraft product is manufactured using top quality components and assemblies. As an option, in
order to minimise the risk of scalding, a Thermostatic Mixer Valve (TMV) can be fitted between your
hot water supply and the shower (optional) and bath inlets. THESE ARE NOT FITTED AS
STANDARD – PLEASE CHECK THE SPECIFICATION OF YOUR BATH AND IF IN ANY DOUBT
CONSULT KINGKRAFT FOR ADVICE. The operation of these TMV’s should be regularly checked,
especially after any maintenance. See the section below on maintenance of your unit for further
instructions. The safe temperature of the mixed water must be checked prior to bathing on each
occasion – see section of filling the bath.
