General instructions

Follow the instructions in this manual. Otherwise there is a risk of a dangerous situation. The solar shower is intended for home personal use in private gardens. The solar shower is designed for individual showering. Do not use the solar shower for purposes other than those for which it is intended. Do not use the solar shower in commercial setting.
Recommended water pressure: max. 3.5 bar. Under no circumstances may the solar shower be used with any auxiliary pumps or as part of domestic water distribution.
Water heating causes the water to expand. Therefore, water may leak slightly from the shower head.
The first time you use the solar shower, you may notice a slight odor of plastic and oil. This is normal. To get rid of the odor, let the water flow through the shower head for a few minutes.
Do not use salt or any other commonly used anti-freeze agent for cleaning or maintenance.
If you will not be using the solar shower for a long time, empty it and store it in a dry place in the home. The solar shower is not equipped with any means that improves water or removes microorganisms. If the water remains in the solar shower for a long time without the possibility of its replacement, there is a risk of the formation of harmful organisms.
The water in the solar shower can reach up to 60 ° C. Therefore, take extra care not to scald yourself with hot water.

Install the solar shower in a place that has plenty of sunlight. It is also important that the solar shower is installed within reach of the water pipe.
Attach the bottom part of the solar shower (B) to a concrete slab or wooden base using the supplied anchor kit (K). We recommend using a wrench to tighten.
Attach the shower head (D) with seal (G) to the shower arm (E). Screw the shower arm (E) with the seal (F) into the thread at the top of the solar shower (A). Tighten this part by hand only. Do not use any tools.
Insert the 0-ring (C) on the bottom part of the solar shower (B).
Place carefully the upper part of the solar shower (A) on the bottom part of the solar shower (B). Connect the hoses.
Turn the center lock clockwise to connect the top and bottom parts of the solar shower (A+B). It is important that the shower head and the faucet handle point in the same direction.
Screw the tap (H) with the seal (F) in the bottom part of the solar shower (B).

Pull the faucet handle towards you and turn it to the “hot” position. This will ensure that no air pockets remain in the hoses while they are being filled with water.
Connect the garden hose to the hose connector (J) located at the rear part on the bottom of the solar shower. Open the water tap and let the interior of the shower filled with water. Filling of the solar shower with water can take a few minutes.
Once the water start coming out of the shower head (D), push the faucet handle toward the showery to stop the water flowing out. The water in the solar shower will start warming up.
Depending on the sunlight and the outdoor temperature, heating the water in the solar shower will take about two hours.
The water temperature in the solar shower can reach up to 60 ° C in intense sunlight and high temperature.
WARNING: Be very careful not to get scalded by too hot water. There is a risk of severe scalding from hot water. Turn the handle to the “cold” position and test the water temperature on your hands, only then set the desired water temperature by turning the handle towards “hot”.

WINTERIZING

Turn off the water tap and disconnect the garden hose.
Pull the faucet handle towards you and turn it to the “hot” position. Allow the water to flow freely from the shower head to drain the water from the inner hoses. The water will flow for about 8 to 10 minutes. Once the water stops flowing, the inner hoses are empty. Do not close the handle or block water flow. The water would remain in the inner hoses; it could freeze and seriously damage the hoses.
Turn the center lock counterclockwise to disconnect the top part (A) from the bottom part of the solar shower (B). Disconnect the hoses. The water can still flow out of the hoses.
Unscrew the bottom part of the solar shower (B) and pur out the remaining water from the solar shower.
Clean and wipe all parts of the solar shower dry. 6. Store the solar shower in a dry place in the house to prevent ice during the winter.
