General Cleaning
Bristan products are made from premium materials, with
hand polishing and electroplated finishes.
Your taps or shower should be regularly cleaned with warm water, a mild pH-neutral liquid soap, and polished with a soft cloth. Any residues from soap, toiletries etc. should be rinsed off straight after use.
Household bleaches and cleaners contain harsh chemicals and may damage the surface finish. Avoid using abrasive cloths, scouring pads, scrub sponges, steel wool or anything similar.
Some surfaces such as nickel and pewter may be affected by the dye found in some cloths, so it is also important to avoid hanging cloths on spouts.
Operation
Wall Outlet Installation
Choose the location for the wall outlet and create a 25-30mm hole in the wall. Ensure your shower accessories have enough reach from that position.
Finish the wall surface.
Servicing Intervals
To reduce the build up of lime scale and to ensure this shower works to its maximum performance we recommend this shower is serviced every 6-12 months depending on the hardness of your water
With rear access
Fit the wall outlet, ensuring the
washers are fitted either side of
the wall.
Without rear access
Follow Step 6 in the Installation Steps, fitting a 1/2” female connection at the hole in the wall (not supplied).
Screw the wall outlet into the 1/2” female connection, using a suitable thread sealant ensuring the rubber seal is fitted to the back of the wall outlet.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Remedy |
No flow or low flow rate | Partially closed isolation valve. | Open isolation valve. |
| Instantaneous water heater cycles on and off as flow rate or pressure is too low. | Increase water flow rate or pressure through system. | |
| Head of water is below the minimum distance required. | Refer to the specification for the minimum distance required. | |
| Are the water supply pressures balanced? | If pressures are unbalanced, a pressure reducing valve should be used for optimum performance. | |
| Hot or cold water being drawn off elsewhere causing pressure changes or instantaneous boiler temperature changes. | Do not use other water outlets when using the shower. | |
| Airlock or partial blockage in the supply pipework. | Flush through pipework and filters to ensure removal of debris and any airlocks. | |
| Hot/Cold water supply has failed | Check the hot and cold feeds. The shower will not work if either fails. | |
| Maximum Water Temperature too Hot/Cold | Maximum Water Temperature needs adjusting. | Refer to the Temperature Setting section to set your desired maximum temperature. |
Outlet Water Temperature too Hot/Cold | Filter/pipe blockage | Flush through pipework and filters to ensure removal of debris and any airlocks. |
| Installtion conditions outside operating parameters. | Refer to the specification for the minimum distance required. | |
| Hot water temperature is less than 10°C above the required blend temperature | Adjust hot water temperature or wait for water to reheat if a stored water system is used. | |
| Instantaneous water not igniting because the water flow rate is too low. | Increase water flow rate through the system. Refer to the Maintenance section to clean/check the cartridge and filters for any damage. Contact your boiler manufacturer. | |
| Instantaneous water not igniting because the water pressure is too low. | Refer to the specification for system requirements. Increase water pressure through the system. Contact your boiler manufacturer. | |
Only hot/ cold water from Shower Valve | Inlet water supplies are reversed. | Check the water inlet connections are the correct way around: Hot on the left, Cold on the right when viewed from the front. Rework pipework as necessary. |
| Filter/pipe blockage | Flush through pipework and filters to ensure removal of debris and any airlocks. | |
Water dripping from shower | This is normal for a short time after using the shower. | This is caused by residual water tension, the build up of water in the shower. |
| If water continues to drip, possibly due to the cartridge | Remove cartridge and clean, refer to ‘Maintenance’ section before starting any maintenance. | |
Shower does not turn on | Closed isolation valve. | Open isolation valve. |
| Mains water supply turned off. | Turn on mains water supply. |
