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.

YOU WILL NEED
TOTAL ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Voltage Rating 220 -240AC
Frequency Rating 50HZ
Power Rating 3.0KW
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.

Pressure Requirements from your house supply
We recommend a bar pressure between 2.5 and 3.4 BAR. If you have a combi boiler system no problem should be experienced. If you have a gravity feed older type
installation (hot water tank type usually less than 1 bar) you will almost certainly need a pump. We cannot advise on which type of pump is used, location or design because
all house plumbing layouts vary. This is a job for your installer/plumber. The end delivery however must fall within the scope above.
Debit Requirements
You will need the debit capabilities of at least 10 litres per minute. Again an average combi boiler will supply this but please check if you have a gravity feed system.
Important Note Do not exceed 3.4 BAR pressure under any circumstances. Warranty is void if so as damage will occur. If you have a combi supply, please use a pressure
reducing valve if required to lower the BAR pressure to the shower.
Please Remember that this product is free standing and is designed to be pulled away from the wall. The water supply and waste require flexible pipes. If you purchased the
fitting kit with this shower you will have the required fittings. The water supply pipes need to be at least 1 metre in length and must be that of a flexi braided type..
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN IT CAN CAUSE THE CONNECTION TO POP AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF USE
Please note if a shower pump is used via gravity system we recommend a separate cold feed bypassing pump direct to generator to avoid damage to the
generator.
Further to this as you would with a washing machine or dishwasher, it is highly recommended that accessible water valve taps are installed to turn off the shower when not
In use. This will avoid any possible flooding due to a burst pipe or connection failure in the future.

TO START
Make sure you have a clear space, remember when finished and in place you need access
to check your build and able to pull the shower out for servicing or should you have the need
to replace anything!
Take the shower tub and remove all the protective wrapping and fit the waste. If you
purchased the fitting kit it is possible this may have already been fitted in the tray hole yet
please note this is only for transportation reasons therefore you will still need to ensure the
correct sealing and alignment is carried out. In the side of the waste supplied in the optional
fitting kit you will notice a spigot not seen on an ordinary waste. In most cases this is blanked
yet should you have a steam version you need to gently drill this out as this item is for the
steam generator drainage and will be connected in the instructions later.
Now please level the tray by firstly placing the tray in its final location and then using a spirit
level, adjust the tray feet accordingly. Once you are happy with the levelling of the tray, you
can pull it out to begin the main construction.
Step 1
Run a bead of silicone along the edge and bottom of the large squared
side glass panel and the angled back panel glass and place onto the tub
and screw together using the ST20 screws

Step 3
Now apply silicone to both sides and the bottom of the large square back
glass panel to the column and fix together using the ST20 screws.
Step 2
Now apply silicone to both sides and the bottom of the control column and place the
next to the angled back glass panel and fix together using the ST20 screws.
(please note, if your column has a rubber seal at the bottom , take the rubber off and apply
silicone inside the rubber and replace)

into position using the ST14 and once fixed slide the flat rubber glass seal into this
newly fitted upright on the inside (as of the red line in the image)
Please note, ensure you drill no deeper than 5mm
Step 11
Pierce through the holes using a screwdriver to show pre-cut holes in the
glass as indicated in the image. Now using the chrome “L” brackets, fix these to the
glass panels using the provided nuts and bolts (B22) please ensure the bolt goes
through the plastic cover holder (PCH13) first
Align the shower panels until you are happy with the sitting of these and now using
the ST25 screws, screw the brackets to the tub
Now place the Chrome cover caps (CPC16) onto the cover holders (PCH13)

Please Note
Ensure all grey backing film on the rear of the glass panels are pierced through the existing glass holes
with a knife to provide an efficient smooth fitting and location of the accessories. We recommend using
a screwdriver on the smaller holes.

Shower Valve
Device output may differ from the image. Please refer to your outer chrome faceplate in-
side your Insignia shower as a reference point.
IF YOUR DIAL DOES NOT CORROSPOND TO THE APPROPRIATE DEVICE:
Turn on your water to the shower and note which output the water exits from then turn off
the water and swap over the relevant hose.
Alternatively remove the outer chrome knob by removing the chrome cap and loosening
the grub screw (please ensure not to unscrew fully as this will drop within the chrome
knob) this is found on the opposite side to the chrome pillar. Once you have succeeded in
loosening this you can now slide your faceplate to correspond to the device.

Safety precautions
Never leave children unattended in the shower or bath.
Never bath children (under 12) using whirlpool function if fitted.
Regulate the temperature of water before showering
Never allow children to use the steam function. This function is for
ADULTS ONLY.
Always be aware of the steam outlet pod position. Never use in close proximity to
the person using it.
Never use this shower if you have been drinking alcohol.
Never use with more than one person unless the shower is designed for this.
This product is not to be used for washing/bathing animals
Connection For Tray & Column Lights
Using the supplied extension lead, please connect the end with the single connection to
your tub lights. Next bring the extension lead up the back of the shower and connect one

Silicone Seal where shown in red on the inside of the shower
TESTING FOR WATER LEAKS
LEAVING SHOWER 24 HOURS AFTER BUILD ALLOWING SEALENT TO CURE
With all connections tight, the waste and hoses checked, jets fully sealed, your shower still around 18 inches
from its designated final resting point and the silicone fully cured (hence leaving for 24 hours minimum)
Switch on the overhead shower NOT the massage jets, remember these will fire water out at you and are
not suitable for checking leaks as they would normally only operate when a person is in front of them. Just
use COLD water setting as hot will make cabin misty and condensate thus the inspection becomes very
difficult. Now on the OUTSIDE of the shower inspect each joint, factory seal, hose, clip and jet by walking
from one side and going around to the back and then to the other side finishing at the front. If you have a
small leak (normally caused through insufficient sealer or air bubble on assembly, dry the area thoroughly
and reseal on the OUTSIDE. Please remember where you see the water this may not be exactly where the
leak is as it could have run around to a low point. Never seal your inner fittings (accessories) inside unless
you feel it necessary and make sure it is thin and neat, remember you will see this for the life of the shower!
Again leave to cure and check. If all good now check shower functions i.e. jets for back massage,
foot massage, (if you have one) and finally hand shower, check your joints to these functions at the rear
again. Never use the shower until all checks have been made and the installer is 100% happy in the
knowledge no leaks are present.
All good?
Now push your shower FROM THE BASE NEVER GLASS OR FRAME into its final resting position.
Now you can shower in the knowledge that you have no leaks a job done well and long product life.
Happy showering!
