Installation of a Architeckt Linear Thermostatic Bar

[mikedowson]

Hi,

I am currently installing a Architeckt Linear Thermostatic Bar shower. On the back of the shower where the pipes enter are two stickers, one red, one blue. Consequently, i would assume hot goes to red and cold to blue, however, the red sticker is nearest the "cold" control valve and the blue sticker is nearest the "hot" control valve (i.e. the things you turn in the shower to make it work and adjust the temperature!)

This seems wrong to me as i would assume the hot should enter nearest the hot valve and be controlled by that valve and the same for the cold.

Has anyone installed one of these and can they tell me if i am right or the shower is right?!!

Thank you for your time

Regards,

Mike

What do the instructions that accompany it say

Nothing of any use what so ever

The instructions are exactly the same as the pdf below:

Which, from an installation point of view is really not very helpful!

Cheers

The instructions are exactly the same as the pdf below:

The instructions show a Customer Service email address. Why not try them?

Hi there,

The markings on the shower will be correct.

The controls knowbs are for temp and flow not for hot and cold.

As per the picture the temp control is on the cold side as this is whre the hot and cold get mixedd for the correct temp.

The other one controls the flow speed / on/off

Hope this helps
Rico
