Unscrew existing shower from wall. (anti-clockwise direction)
Remove any old thread tape from exposed wall thread.
In a clockwise direction wind thread tape onto exposed thread up to 10 times. Maintain pressure applying tape.
Place chrome backing plate on wall bracket then screw to wall, hand tighten only. IMPORTANT: The bracket must be positioned in a horizontal direction (male thread facing floor of the shower).
Connect shower filter to the male thread of bracket. Ensure washer Is placed in the pivot end, hand tighten.
Connect shower hose (hexagon shaped end) to shower filter.
Connect shower head to hose (conical end of hose).
Test the shower installation (see below) and if no leaks, flush shower filter (cold water) for 2-3 minutes prior to first use.
Turn cold water on and run for a minute. This will swell washers to seal system. Check for any leaks. If you find a leak:
Gravity Fed Showers: Where water pressure is less than 150kpa (outlet) the installation of any water saving shower may affect performance of instantaneous water heaters, thermostatic mixing valves and some tempering valves.
High Water Pressure Areas: Where water pressure exceeds 500kpa a pressure limiting device should be installed. Otherwise hose warranty will be voidable.
This product is manufactured for domestic use only.
Ensure hose is installed correctly. Incorrect installation may force outer hose to pinch inner tube and lead to failures. Such damage is easily recognized and not covered by warranty.
ALWAYS consult a licensed plumber if in any doubt regarding the installation.
We recommend shower filter cartridge be replaced every 6 months or when a significant water pressure drop from the shower is noticed, whichever occurs first. Filter life expectancy will vary depending on pre-existing pipe work condition and age, locality and local TDS levels.
