ASSEMBLY AND SIMPLE PLUMBING
THIS PRODUCT BUILD IS RATED SUITABLE FOR DIY PURPOSES PROVIDING THE CUSTOMER IS OF ABOVE AVERAGE SKILLS AND FEELS CONFIDENT IN
THEIR ABILTY. ONLY YOU THE CUSTOMER WILL KNOW THIS SO BEFORE ANY ATTEMPT IS MADE TO ASSEMBLY READ THROUGH THE FOLLOWING PAG-
ES IN DETAIL THEN DECIDE. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT USE THE SERVICES OF A PROFESSIONAL. IN PICKING SUCH, ALLOW THEM TO DECIDE IF THEY
ARE CAPABLE OF BUILD BY FIRST SHOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS TO THEM. ALWAYS GET THREE QUOTES.
REMEMBER THE BEST IS NOT ALWAYS THE CHEAPEST!
REMEMBER PLUMBERS PLUMB! 90% OF THIS JOB IS NOT PLUMBING!
DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS PRODUCT WE HIGHLY ADVISE THE PURCHASE AND FITTING OF A WATER SOFTENER
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO HOUSE MAINS
WHEN YOUR ITEM IS ASSEMBLED ALWAYS USE THE SERVICES OF A FULLY QUALIFIED ELECTRICAL COMPANY TO COMPLETE CONNECTION FROM
SHOWER TO HOUSE SUPPLY. LAWS DEMAND IN MANY CASES YOU DO THIS AND YOUR WARRANTY IS VOID REGARDS ELECTRICAL ITEMS IF THIS IS NOT
UNDERTAKEN.
YOURS AND OTHERS SAFETY IS PARAMOUNT. NEVER ATTEMPT THIS YOURSELF.
REMEMBER:
These showers are designed to be free standing and movable from their location should you have need to replace anything. ALWAYS USE Flexible braided water inlet
pipes at least a metre long (not central heating plastic type! )
from house supply to the shower and again flexible waste pipe to join to your house waste. NEVER fix with rigid pipes, never fix the unit to the wall.
DURING BUILD, LIKE ALL SHOWERS CORRECT SEALING IS IMPERATIVE.
ALWAYS FIT "EASY TO GET TO TAP VALVES" ON BOTH HOT AND COLD WATER. THE SAME AS A DISHWASHER OR WASHING MACHINE THIS PRODUCT
SHOULD BE ISOLATED WHEN NOT IN USE.

Your electrical contractor should understand ALL legal requirements of connection before undertaking any work or installation.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES UNDERTAKE THIS YOURSELF!!!
Note for electrician. This product comes with 13 amp plug(s) fitted with an RCD unit. We leave it this way for you to connect this your own way due to continued additions
to current regulations. As at October 2010 we offered two methods.
1) Connect within current laws and IP directives using plug and RCD provided with steam version or supply one for non steam version
2) (Preferred) Wire into isolated fused feed connecting directly to the house consumer/service box. Remove the fitted plug and ensure the Consumer unit has capabilities to
replace RCD feature if RCD is removed.
Always use protection against electrical surge. Your shower should be treated the same as a home computer. A surge protector should eradicate the possibility of either
the transformer or computer control being burnt out. Please note earth is required and found on chassis of shower tray. A further earth is required from Steam Generator
unit. Each earth must ground through power supply line.

Whilst the next steps show you how to assemble your shower we want to make sure you have a correct build to ensure you get a trouble free shower. Therefore our advice
is to follow the instructions and perform a dry run to ensure you are confident with the build and you understand fully how the unit is assembled. When we use the word
“DRY RUN” this means you do not silicone anything, just simply construct the shower, align, drill and screw everything together. Once you are happy with the build take the
unit apart and carry out the final fix.
