INSTALLATION
General
1.
Make sure that the shower fittings are installed by a
competent installer.
2.
Installations must comply with Water Regulations (Bye-
Laws, Scotland), and any other Local Regulations and
Building Regulations in force at the time of installation.
3.
Before installation carefully inspect the new fixture for
any signs of damage.
4.
The shower fittings should be positioned at a
convenient height for all the family and so that the
deluge head will discharge down the centre of a bath
or shower cubicle. Position the deluge head to spray
across rather than towards the opening of the cubicle
(if applicable) and also away from the shower control.
5.
Special consideration should be given to the fixing
arrangements when installing onto a dry lined, stud
partition, shower cubicle or laminated panel wall
structures. Installers may wish to obtain alternative
proprietary cavity fixings, or choose other options,
however, these methods of fixing are beyond the
scope of this guide.
Install the Shower Arm and Showerhead
The shower arm and showerhead must be fitted after the
installation of the shower control and the outlet pipe must
protrude 18 mm (± 2 mm) from the finished wall surface.
The outlet pipe must be fitted at a suitable height and so
that the showerhead will discharge down the centre of a
bath or shower cubicle.
