2. The product you have purchased is designed for home DIY fitting. You are only required under the Terms and Conditions to get any electrics feeding the shower installed by a qualified specialist.

ATTENTION
ALWAYS FIT EASY TO GET TO ISOLATION TAPS ON BOTH THE HOT AND COLD WATER SUPPLY (NOT SUPPLIED). JUST LIKE A DISHWASHER OR WASHING MACHINE, THIS PRODUCT MUST BE ISOLATED WHEN NOT IN USE.

REMEMBER:
These baths are designed to be free standing and movable from their location should you have the need to replace anything. ALWAYS USE Flexible braided water inlet pipes (not supplied) at least a metre long (not central heating plastic type!)
Always use a flexible waste pipe from your house supply to the bath . NEVER FIX with rigid pipes, NEVER FIX the unit to the wall.

Before you begin

Assembly requires two persons.

Tools needed to assemble this shower cabin:

Electric screwdriver with a selection of heads, regular screwdrivers, pipe grips, spanners, spirit level, sharp knife and rubber mallet. Connection of the electrical supply and plumbing may require additional tools.
Do not fully tighten any screw fixings initially during build as this allows the frame to move a little and aid location of all holes and screws; remember to fully tighten before completion and subsequent use. There is a drill bit supplied with the kit, to allow either widening of holes or drilling new holes which you feel cannot be located during construction.

Water requirements

This shower requires two water supplies (1 x hot and 1 x cold) tested to be between 1 and 3 bar, with a flow rate over 7.5 litres per minute.
NOTE: We recommend water pressures over 2 bar to achieve optimum showering results.

Gravity Fed systems

If you have a Gravity fed system, then fitting a Shower Pump will almost certainly be required. Fitting a Shower pump rated over 1.5 bar is necessary as a minimum. Shower pumps MUST be properly sited, installed and commissioned. Incorrectly installed shower pumps will cause adverse affects to your showering and bathing resulting in pulsing or starting and stopping of the pump. If a pump is installed, a separate Mains Cold supply must be fitted and directed to supply the Steam Generator separately (bypassing the pump).

Isolating Valves

You MUST fit isolation valves to the shower unit on both hot and cold incoming feeds as it enables you to turn off the water supply to the shower when not in use (for example going away on holiday). Additionally isolating valves makes service checks easier than locating the house stop cock.

DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS PRODUCT WE HIGHLY ADVISE THE PURCHASE AND FITTING OF A WATER SOFTENER
(PLEASE NOTE LIMESCALE BUILD UP MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR SHOWER AND WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY)
