For correct operation & installation, it is essential to observe these instructions.
Operation
All surfaces should only be cleaned with liquid detergent or soap and water. Under no circumstance should any abrasive or acid-base cleaning agents be used.
Servicing
Periodically clean the aerator for any lodged sediment that may restrict
flow. A Puretec whole house water filter is highly recommended to ensure the
longevity of all household tapware.
Should it be necessary to have your mixer serviced while under warranty, please carry out the following procedure:
- Firstly call the plumber, preferably the one that has installed it, (most problems are caused by the supply lines not being cleaned out properly, prior to connecting the mixers).
- Make sure that the plumber has installed your mixer according to the User Guide.
- If the plumber is satisfied that he cannot rectify the problem then contact your plumbing supply store or your local Puretec stockist.
Important: We do not recommend the dismantling of any internal parts of the mixer purely to see what is inside as this will breach your warranty.
Technical Information
Puretec mixers can be used in conjunction with:
- pressure storage hot water systems
- any mains water pressure not exceeding 500 kPa
- maximum hot water temperature of 60°C
- instantaneous hot water systems
Recommended Working Pressures
- Minimum working pressure 50 kPa (7.5 PSI).
- Maximum working pressure 500 kPa.
It should be noted that water mains pressure builds up during off-peak
periods, mainly at night, sometimes doubling or trebling normal daytime
pressures.
Note: Not suitable for unequal pressure. On high-pressure areas where the
pressure exceeds the recommended working pressure as indicated above pressure
limiting valves must be installed or a warranty is voided.
Installation Guide
(BL1 & BL2 models)
Note: It is important to flush out the supply pipes to the mixer before
connecting the flexible hoses with the initial installation, so no foreign
matter can enter into the cartridges.
A Puretec Water Filter is highly recommended for product longevity.
