ASSEMBLY AND SIMPLE PLUMBING
THIS PRODUCT BUILD IS RATED SUITABLE FOR DIY PURPOSES PROVIDING THE CUSTOMER IS OF ABOVE AVERAGE SKILLS AND FEELS CONFIDENT IN
THEIR ABILTY. ONLY YOU THE CUSTOMER WILL KNOW THIS SO BEFORE ANY ATTEMPT IS MADE TO ASSEMBLY READ THROUGH THE FOLLOWING PAG-
ES IN DETAIL THEN DECIDE. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT USE THE SERVICES OF A PROFESSIONAL. IN PICKING SUCH, ALLOW THEM TO DECIDE IF THEY
ARE CAPABLE OF BUILD BY FIRST SHOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS TO THEM. ALWAYS GET THREE QUOTES.
REMEMBER THE BEST IS NOT ALWAYS THE CHEAPEST!
REMEMBER PLUMBERS PLUMB! 90% OF THIS JOB IS NOT PLUMBING!
DUE TO THE NATURE OF THIS PRODUCT WE HIGHLY ADVISE THE PURCHASE AND FITTING OF A WATER SOFTENER
REMEMBER:
These showers are designed to be free standing and movable from their location should you have need to replace anything. ALWAYS USE Flexible braided water inlet
pipes at least a metre long (not central heating plastic type! )
from house supply to the shower and again flexible waste pipe to join to your house waste. NEVER fix with rigid pipes, never fix the unit to the wall.
DURING BUILD, LIKE ALL SHOWERS CORRECT SEALING IS IMPERATIVE.
ATTENTION
ALWAYS FIT EASY TO GET TO TAPS ON BOTH HOT AND COLD WATER SUPPLY. AS A DISHWASHER OR WASHING MACHINE, THIS PROD-
UCT MUST BE ISOLATED WHEN NOT IN USE. FLEXI SUPPLY HOSES (SUPPLIED) COUPLE HERE AS ORIGIN OF SUPPLY

Whilst the next steps show you how to assemble your shower we want to make sure you have a correct build to ensure you get a trouble free shower. Therefore our advice
is to follow the instructions and perform a dry run to ensure you are confident with the build and you understand fully how the unit is assembled. When we use the word
“DRY RUN” this means you do not silicone anything, just simply construct the shower, align, drill and screw everything together. Once you are happy with the build take the
unit apart and carry out the final fix.

Pressure Requirements from your house supply
We recommend a bar pressure between 2.5 and 3.4 BAR. If you have a combi boiler system no problem should be experienced. If you have a gravity feed older type
installation (hot water tank type usually less than 1 bar) you will almost certainly need a pump. We cannot advise on which type of pump is used, location or design because
all house plumbing layouts vary. This is a job for your installer/plumber. The end delivery however must fall within the scope above.
Debit Requirements
You will need the debit capabilities of at least 10 litres per minute. Again an average combi boiler will supply this but please check if you have a gravity feed system.
Important Note Do not exceed 3.4 BAR pressure under any circumstances. Warranty is void if so as damage will occur. If you have a combi supply, please use a pressure
reducing valve if required to lower the BAR pressure to the shower.
Please Remember that this product is free standing and is designed to be pulled away from the wall. The water supply and waste require flexible pipes. If you purchased the
fitting kit with this shower you will have the required fittings. The water supply pipes need to be at least 1 metre in length and must be that of a flexi braided type..
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN IT CAN CAUSE THE CONNECTION TO POP AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF USE
Please note if a shower pump is used via gravity system we recommend a separate cold feed bypassing pump direct to generator to avoid damage to the
generator.
Further to this as you would with a washing machine or dishwasher, it is highly recommended that accessible water valve taps are installed to turn off the shower when not
In use. This will avoid any possible flooding due to a burst pipe or connection failure in the future.

TO START
Make sure you have a clear space, remember when finished and in place you need access to check your build and
able to pull the shower out for servicing or should you have the need to replace anything!
Take the shower tray and remove all the protective wrapping and fit the waste. If you purchased the fitting kit it is
possible this may have already been fitted in the tray hole yet please note this is only for transportation reasons
therefore you will still need to ensure the correct sealing and alignment is carried out. In the side of the waste
supplied in the optional fitting kit you will notice a spigot not seen on an ordinary waste. In most cases this is blanked
yet should you have a steam version you need to gently drill this out as this item is for the steam generator drainage
and will be connected in the instructions later.
Now please level the tray by firstly placing the tray in its final location and then using a spirit level, adjust the tray feet
accordingly. Once you are happy with the levelling of the tray, you can pull it out to begin the main construction.
Step 1
Attach the uprights to the top and bottom curved rail using
the ST35 screws. The end with the groove is designed to
sit on the tray, with the flat end connecting to the roof.
Please note the ‘U’ shaped channel is meant to face
inwards to allow the glass to fit correctly.
(Insignia logo on top rail)
PLEASE NOTE
The screw head needs to bypass the OUTER hole. If this
does not occur please bore out the outer hole only by
about 2-4mm

Step 3
Align the 2 x side glass panels with the rubber seal into the
glass frame as shown below and push tightly in to position.
Once both panels are tightly in place you can secure the outer
edges of the glass in to position using the glass retaining clips
(PRC20) as shown in the image. To do this simply align the
clips tight up to the glass and using screw type ST13 screw in
to position. Do this for all 4 clips (2 x top and 2 x bottom)
Step 2
Take the 2 x pieces of flat side glass and run the plastic seal down 1
side of each piece and cut to length if required.
