caroma marc newson – rail shower with overhead water efficient tapware (nominal flow rate = 9 L/min) PLUMBERS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS IS1224A(08/12) Important Information • O  utlet connection of rail (14) is fitted with a 9 L/min flow regulated check valve (18). Showerhead (10) is fitted with a 9.0 L/min flow regulator (9). Note: Warranty is void if flow regulator (9), check valve (17) and flow regulated check valve (18) are not installed as shown. • Not suitable for gravity feed systems. • A  ll pipework must be thoroughly flushed prior to installation, as foreign materials may block the flow regulating device and reduce the flow of water. • T  hreaded nipple (1) must be square to, and of the correct length from, the Wall/Tile face to ensure correct installation. • T  o prevent drill from wandering on tiled surfaces it is recommended that masking tape be applied prior to drilling the tiled surface. The centre of mounting plug (5) must be vertically aligned with the centre of threaded nipple (1) and have a centre distance within the recommended range of 650-690mm. • SHOWER RAIL (14) MUST NOT BE USED AS A GRAB RAIL. • Turn off hot and cold water supplies before installation. IMPORTANT Pressure & Temperature Requirements • Hot and cold water inlet pressures should be equal. • S  tatic inlet pressure range: 150 - 1000kPa New Regulation:- 500kPa maximum static pressure at any outlet within a building. (Ref. AS/NZS 3500.1-2003, Clause 3.3.4) • Maximum hot water temperature: 80°C. Wall Requirements • Penetration hole (in wall lining): Ø30 - 35mm Installation Requirements • T  he installing plumber is responsible for waterproofing all penetrations for Taps in Shower areas at installation by a proprietary flange system or a sealant. (Ref AS3740-2010, Clause 3.10) PAGE 2 OF 12 G1/2B Ø30/35mm 1 8mm Wall/Tile Face 1 Check that threaded nipple (1) is the correct length, as shown. Cut to length if required ensuring end face is square. Apply thread tape to the thread. Important: • The cut length of the threaded nipple (1) must be accurate. • Care must be taken that thread tape cannot become dislodged and block the flow regulating device, causing a reduction in water flow. PAGE 3 OF 12 1 2 3 Plain diameter 2 Apply a suitable sealant to the back face of plate (2), leaving an unsealed section at the bottom for drainage. Slide plate (2) onto plain diameter of adaptor (3), as shown. Screw adaptor (3) onto threaded nipple (1) until plate (2) is held securely against the wall/tile face and the sealant is compressed to form a watertight joint. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Wipe clean any excess sealant from the wall surface. PAGE 4 OF 12 3 650-690mm Ø6.0mm Mounting Hole Fig.2 Fig.1 3 Determine the position for the lower mounting base (15, step 6). Drill one hole Ø6.0mm (Fig.2). Important: • For solid walls Ø6.0mm drilled hole must be a minimum 45mm deep. • The Ø6.0mm hole must be placed in vertical alignment to, and at the specified distance from, the threaded nipple (1). PAGE 5 OF 12 Mounting Hole Wall/tile face 4 5 6 4 Insert the tapered end of the wall plug (4) into pre-drilled mounting hole and tap until flush with wall/tile face. Place the screw (6) through the centre hole of the mounting plug (5) as shown then tighten screw (6) into already installed wall plug (4) until mounting plug (5) is securely fixed to the wall. Important: • The base of the mounting plug (5) must be seated on the wall/tile face. PAGE 6 OF 12 7 Outlet thread Inlet socket 8 9 10 12 ' O' ring 14 5 Ensure flow regulator (9) and strainer washer (8) are fitted into the inlet socket of the showerhead (10). Screw the inlet socket of the showerhead (10) onto the outlet thread of the shower arm (7). Tighten the inlet socket of the shower head onto the outlet thread of the shower arm using a 21mm A/F spanner, taking care not to damage the decorative finish. Screw the rail (14) into the upper mounting base (12) and tighten by hand, taking care that the 'O'ring seal remains in position during assembly. PAGE 7 OF 12 3 11 Wall/tile face 12 13 ' O' rings Spigot 14 15 14 5 6 16 Ensure handshower bracket (13) and lower mounting base (15) are in position on rail (14), as shown. Apply suitable lubricant to 'O'rings on spigot of adaptor (3). Locate the upper mounting base (12) on the spigot of adaptor (3) then position the lower mounting base (15) onto the mounting plug (5), taking care not to damage the 'O'rings on the spigot of adaptor (3). Carefully guide both mounting bases (12 & 15) equally until they contact the wall/tile face. With both bases held firmly against the wall surface, use a 2.5mm allen key to tighten the four grub screws (11 & 16). PAGE 8 OF 12 15 14 17 Outlet connection 18 Flow Direction Arrows 7 19 20 24 23 22 21 Ensure that check valve (17), flow regulated check valve (18) and 'O'ring (19) are in position in the outlet connection of shower rail (14). Connect the shorter conical nut (20) of shower hose (21) to the outlet connection of rail (14) and tighten. Ensure rubber washer (23) is in position in the remaining conical nut (22) of shower hose (21) then connect the conical nut (22) to the thread of the handshower (24) and tighten. Place the handshower (24) into the handshower bracket (13). Important: • If water does not flow from the handshower (24) make sure that check valves (17 & 18) are installed with the arrows pointing in the direction of flow. PAGE 9 OF 12 Diverter Knob Button 8 Turn on hot and cold water supplies and check operation. Information: • If water does not flow from the handshower, check valves may be installed incorrectly. Refer to step 7 (page 9). • Height of handshower (24) can be adjusted by pressing button and sliding shower bracket (13) up or down rail (14). • To deliver water to the shower head (10), the dot on the diverter knob must be indicating in the vertically up position (as shown). To deliver water to the handshower (24), the dot on the diverter knob must be indicating in the vertically down position.
