Electric shower

ADVICE TO USERS

The following points will help you understand 
how the shower operates:

a.

  The electric heating elements operate at a 

constant rate at your chosen power setting. 
It is the rate of the water passing through 
the heater can which determines the water 
temperature. The slower the flow, the hotter 
the water becomes; the faster the flow, the 
cooler the water.

b.

  During winter, the mains water supply will be 

cooler than in the summer. The flow rate will 
vary between seasons at any one temperature 
setting. At different times of the year you 
may have to adjust the position of the 
temperature control to maintain your desired 
temperature setting.

c.

  The stabiliser valve minimises variations in 

shower temperature during mains water 
pressure changes. If changes in shower 
temperature are experienced during normal 
use, it will most likely be caused by the 
water pressure falling near to or below the 
minimum level. The drop in pressure may 
be due to water being drawn off at other 
points in the house whilst the shower is in 
use. If pressure drops appreciably below 
the minimum, the heating elements will 
automatically cut out. 

NOTE:

 If ever the water becomes too hot and 

you cannot obtain cooler water, first check 
that the sprayplate in the shower head has 
not become blocked.

DO NOT

 place items such as soap or shampoo 

bottles on top of the unit. Liquid could seep 
through the joint between the cover and 
backplate.

ADVISORY - CLEANING

It is recommended that all products  

are cleaned using warm, soapy water.

DO NOT

 use abrasive or aggressive  

chemical cleaning products as this may 

affect the product surface finish and 

invalidate your guarantee.

COMISSIONING ADVICE

When first installed the unit will be empty. 

It is essential the unit should contain water 

before the elements are switched on. It is 

vital that the commissioning procedure 

is followed. Failure to carry out this 

operation will result in damage to the unit 

and will invalidate the guarantee.

To check the product suitability for commercial and multiple installations, please contact Triton’s 
specification advisory service before installation.
