CLEANING
Water contains lime which remains on the surface after the water has evaporated. These lime deposits can be prevented from forming by wiping immediately after use.
To clean the chrome-plated surface use a soft cloth, soap and warm water. Never use cleaning agents that contain a corrosive acid or a scouring additive.
Do not use any sharp objects to clean nozzles
Important Installation Considerations
1. NOTE: Some showers may not provide an effective shower when used with gravity fed heated water systems or where pressures are less than 150kPa at the outlet. Additionally showers with flow rates of less than 9L/min may not allow the following to function correctly:
_ some instantaneous water heaters
_ some tempering valves
_ some thermostatic mixing valves
2. Some shower heads only operate correctly when hot and cold water supplies are both mains pressure and may not be suitable for some instantaneous hot water services.
3. When water pressure is in excess of 500kPa a pressure limiting device is required in accordance with AS/NZS 3500 1.12 recommendation.
