This mixer is not recommended for use in uncontrolled heating systems such as wetbacks or solar heater units unless a NEFA TLV valve is fitted. BIA G12 requires all hot water supplies to any sanitary outlet to be tempered to 55°C.
ALL PIPEWORK MUST BE THOROUGHLY FLUSHED PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF THE MIXER. AN
INLINE FILTER MUST BE FITTED TO PREVENT FOREIGN PARTICLES DAMAGING THE CERAMIC
CARTRIDGE.

Installation Instructions
A single 35mm diameter hole is required in the mounting surface. The mount surface can be a maximum of 40mm thick. Screw the threaded rods into the base of the mixer.
Insert the O ring into the groove in the bottom of the base ring and fit the base ring into the bottom of the sink mixer.
Insert the flexible hoses through the hole in the mounting surface (from the underside) and screw them into the base of the sink mixer.
Important: The non-return valve must be fitted in the
HOT supply line. Fit the valve to the Hot supply connection before connecting the HOT flexible hose.
Feed the threaded rods through the hole in the mounting surface. Fit the mounting gasket and mounting plate onto the threaded rods. Tighten the mounting nuts to secure the sink mixer in place. Connect the flexible hoses to the hot and cold supplies (hot on the left, cold on the right).
Two filter baskets are provided for the flexible hose connections to the nipples. Nipples with machined ends are required to ensure a seal to the flexible hose nuts and the filter baskets.
