Electric shower
If the riser kit is supplied with a ‘soapdish hose
retainer’ or bespoke ‘hose retainer’, it will in
most cases meet this requirement. If the shower
head can still be placed within a bath, basin
or shower tray within the 25mm limit, then a
double check valve or similar,
MUST be fitted
in the supply pipework to prevent back-
flow
.
Pressure Relief Safety Device
A pressure relief device (PRD) is designed into
the shower unit which complies with European
standards. The PRD provides a level of appliance
protection should an excessive build up of
pressure occur within the shower.
DO NOT operate the shower with a
damaged or kinked shower hose, or a
blocked shower head. This may cause the
PRD to operate.
When commissioning, the shower head must
be removed from the hose. Failure to follow
this procedure may cause the PRD to operate.
Ensure the shower is positioned over a bath or
shower tray. If the PRD operates, then water
will eject from the bottom of the unit. Should
this happen, turn off the electricity and water
supplies to the shower at the isolating switch
and stopvalve. Contact Customer Experience for
advice on replacing the PRD.
