IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
1 Plumbing
1.1 All installations must comply with Water
Regulations/Bylaws.
1.2 DO NOT connect the pump unit to the
mains water supply.
1.3 Supply pipes must be flushed thoroughly to
clear debris and flux before connecting to the
pump and shower.
1.4 DO NOT use excessive force when making
connections to the flexible connector hoses.
1.5 DO NOT turn on the electrical supply to
the pump until the plumbing connections
and commissioning procedure have been
completed. The pump MUST NOT be
operated dry without water.
1.6 DO NOT solder pipes or fittings within
300mm of the pump, as heat transfer can
damage the components.
1.7 The pump must be connected to dedicated
water supplies. DO NOT fit the pump to a
common supply.
1.8 The dedicated cold water supply must be
taken directly from the cold water cistern
to the pump. This draw-off must be on
the opposite side of the cistern to the float
operated valve. This also helps to prevent
nuisance tripping of the pump.
1.9 The action of the pump is to increase the
flow rate. If the supply pipe work cannot
handle the resulting flow rate then:
1.9.1 The anticipated flow rate may not be
achieved.
1.9.2 Air may be drawn into the hot supply
from the vent pipe causing spluttering and
temperature fluctuations at the showerhead.
1.10 A high level hot feed pipe must not rise
above the level of the water in the cistern.
To reduce the risk of air locks pipes should
be run level with or below the base of the
cistern.
1.11 Pipe runs must be as short as possible and
standard full flow isolating gate valves or
lever valves MUST be fitted to both inlet and
outlet sides of the pump as an independent
means of isolating the water should
maintenance or servicing be necessary.
1.12 DO NOT use jointing compound on any pipe
fittings, use only the flexible hoses supplied
to connect to the pump.
1.13 It is strongly recommended that copper pipe
is used for the installation to avoid nuisance
tripping of the pump.
2 Electrical
2.1 The installation must be undertaken by a
suitably competent person and comply
with BS7671 “Requirements for electrical
installations” (IEE wiring regulations) and
building regulations. Make sure the hot and
cold water connections to the pump are
adequately bonded.
2.2 DO NOT turn on the electrical supply to the
pump until the plumbing connections have
been completed. The pump MUST NOT be
operated dry without water.
2.3 The mains supply must be 230V 50Hz,
connected to the pump via a double pole
switched connection unit fused at 5 Amps,
having a contact separation of at least 3mm
in all poles.
2.4 In accordance with “The Plugs and Sockets
etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994”, the pump is
intended to be permanently connected to the
fixed electrical wiring of the mains system.
2.5 To enhance electrical safety a 30mA residual
current device (RCD), also known as a
residual current circuit breaker (RCCB),
should be installed in the supply circuit.
This may be part of the consumer unit or a
separate unit.
2.6 The wires in the supply cable are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Brown — Live L
Blue — Neutral N
Green/Yellow — Earth E
The supply cable can only be replaced by the
manufacturer or an authorised agent.
2.7 Always disconnect the supply before any form
of work or maintenance on the pump.
Replacement parts can be ordered from Triton
Customer Service. See ‘spare parts’ for details.

SAFETY WARNINGS
In the interest of electrical safety a 30mA
residual current device (RCD) should be
installed in all UK electric and pumped
shower circuits. This may be part of the
consumer unit or a separate unit.
a. Under no circumstances must this pump
be connected to a mains cold water
supply. Failure to comply will invalidate the
guarantee.
b. The shower pump MUST NOT be used if
suspected of being frozen.
c. The pump MUST be earthed.
d. Switch off immediately at isolating switch if
water ceases to flow during use.
e. DO NOT operate the unit outside the
guidelines laid out in 'site requirements'.
