These can result from toilets being flushed or taps being turned on and off. When this happens your showering temperature will be held within a controlled band, provided that the minimum pressure required by the shower is maintained (page.4) If the water pressure falls below the minimum pressure required, it is likely that the pressure switch will turn off the power to the heating elements, resulting in a cold shower. DO NOT place items such as soap, shampoo or other such bottles on top of the unit.

The top-fixing hole is a ‘key-hole’ slot, and should be marked and drilled first. Tighten top screw with head protruding about 10mm from the wall and hook the backplate over the screw head. This allows for correct and accurate alignment of your shower before marking and fixing the bottom position.

6. As a further safeguard, a thermal cut-out switches the power off if the water temperature climbs above the set limit. This cut-out, which gives an audible click, may also operate due to residual heat when the shower is switched off. It will reset itself if water is run through the shower for 10 to 20 seconds. 1. Water is heated instantaneously as it flows over the heating elements in the heat exchanger (fig.14). 7.
Effect of Seasonal Incoming Water Temperature Changes The required water temperature is achieved by adjusting the rate of water flow. The diagram shows the principle involved in relating temperature rise to flow rate. The higher the water rate the lower the temperature and vice versa. The temperature of the water supplied from the mains can vary considerably throughout the year from 5 to 20°C. This means that in the winter, flow rate will be less than in the summer to achieve the same outlet temperature.
