Exposed Thermostatic Mixers
For Built-in Thermostatic Mixers go to section:
‘Installation, Built-in Thermostatic Mixers’.
Installing the Thermostatic Mixer
1. The thermostatic mixer can be installed with
rear, rising or falling supply inlets. Decide
on the most appropriate method for your
installation, and if necessary, loosen the
grubscrews and rotate the inlet elbows to
suit.
Important! Make sure that the elbows are
pushed fully onto the mixer before tightening
the grubscrews.
Important! A ow regulator is tted inside the
cold inlet elbow (some models). This can be
removed for gravity fed / other low pressure
systems (0.5 bar or below), refer to section:
‘Specications,FlowRegulators’.
2. Use the installation template to mark the
positions of the holes for the backplate and
the pipe centres.
For rising or falling supplies the pipe positions
should be set 39 mm from the centre of pipe
to the nished wall at 110 mm centres.
Note! If replacing an existing installation
with pipework centres between 133 mm and
153 mm a universal retrot accessory kit is
available, refer to section: ‘Accessories’.
39 mm
3. For solid walls drill the holes for the backplate
with a 6 mm drill and insert the wall plugs
(supplied). For other types of wall structure
alternative fixings may be required (not
supplied).

4. For Rear Entry Supplies Only:
a) Drill the holes for the supply pipes at

Note! Recess the inlet holes Ø19 mm x
2 mm deep to allow for the concealing
plates.
5. Fit the supply pipework: Hot - Left, Cold
- Right. The inlet pipework should extend
23 mm from the nished wall surface.
Note! If it is not possible to install the
mixer with this pipework conguration follow
