FAQs

Is this shower panel suitable for all types of water heaters?

This panel is not suitable for use with gas or solar water heaters for its thermostatic function. Standard electric or tankless water heaters are generally compatible, provided they can supply water within the recommended temperature ranges.

How do I activate the LED lights?

The LED lights are integrated into the showerhead and massage jets. They require batteries (not included) to operate. Once batteries are installed, they will function when water is flowing through the respective components.

How many shower modes does it have?

The shower panel features four distinct modes: rain shower, waterfall, massage spray from body jets, and a handheld showerhead.

What is the recommended water pressure for this unit?

The ideal water pressure for optimal performance is between 2 and 5 bar.

How do I clean the shower panel and jets?

Clean the aluminium body with a soft, damp cloth. The silicone nozzles are limescale resistant and can be cleaned by gently rubbing them. Avoid abrasive cleaning agents.

What is the temperature accuracy of the thermostatic faucet?

The thermostatic faucet controls water temperature with an accuracy of +/- 2°C.

Does it come with all the necessary mounting hardware?

Yes, the delivery includes all mounting accessories required for assembly and installation.

Troubleshooting

LED lights are not working

Ensure batteries are correctly inserted and have sufficient charge. Check the battery compartment for corrosion.

Water temperature fluctuates significantly

Verify that your water heater is compatible and functioning correctly. Check that the hot and cold water inlet temperatures are within the recommended range (5-29°C cold, 50-80°C hot). Ensure water pressure is within the ideal range (2-5 bar).

Low water flow from showerheads or jets

Check for blockages in the main water supply lines. Gently rub the silicone nozzles to clear any potential limescale buildup. Ensure water pressure meets the minimum requirement.

Thermostatic valve is not sensitive or responsive

This may be caused by sediment or lumps in the tap water. If possible, flush the system and ensure your water source is clean. Consider installing a water filter if sediment is a persistent issue.

Panel is difficult to install

Review the included mounting instructions carefully. Ensure all connections are secure. If you are uncomfortable with plumbing, seek assistance from a qualified professional.
