DO NOT
install the product in a position or location
that will limit access for servicing.
4. A suitable position for the shower will have a minimum
clear distance of 200 mm above and below the
shower unit to allow for cover removal and refitting.
5. The position of the shower and shower fittings must
provide a minimum air gap of 25 mm between the
showerhead and the spill over level of any bath,
shower tray or basin. There must be a minimum
distance of 30 mm between the showerhead and the
spill over lever of any toilet, bidet or other appliance
with a Fluid Category 5 backflow risk.
Note: There will be occasions when the hose retaining ring will not provide
a suitable solution for Fluid Category 3 installations, in these instances
an outlet double check valve must be fitted, this will increase the required
supply pressure typically by 10kPa (0.1 bar). Double check valves fitted in
the inlet supply to the appliance cause a pressure build up, which affect
the maximum static inlet pressure for the appliance and must not be fitted.
For Fluid category 5 double check valves are not suitable.
