INTRODUCTION
Please read this book thoroughly and familiarise yourself with all instructions before
commencing installation
Please keep it for future reference.
The shower installation
MUST
be carried out by a suitably qualified person,
in the sequence of this
fitting instruction
.
ADVICE TO USERS
Important
:
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.
The following points will help you understand how the shower operates:
a) Temperature/flow rate
The temperature control can be adjusted to provide shower temperatures between 35°C and
47°C.
Alternatively, the maximum temperature can be restricted to 41°C or 43°C by adjusting the
temperature stop mechanism inside the unit.
Important:
To comply with BEAB care mark requirements the unit must not be able to run
hotter than
41°C
(this is used in healthcare or special needs environments).
The
Omnicare thermostatic
unit is factory set at 47°C, see Adjusting the Maximum
Temperature section on how to adjust the MAXIMUM temperature to
41°C.
At a selected showering temperature the unit will provide the optimum flow rate possible.
Note the flow rate for any showering temperature will be greater in the summer than in the winter
because of the variance in the ambient mains water supply temperature.
b) Temperature stabilisation
The shower will maintain temperature in accordance with the BEAB care mark.
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 and possibly damage the sealing rubber.
IT IS ADVISED THAT WHERE THE PROPERTY IS LEFT UNATTENDED FOR
AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, THAT THE WATER AND ELECTRICITY
SUPPLIES TO THE SHOWER ARE ISOLATED.
