Hi everyone - was wondering if anyone has ever fitted or tried to fit one of these ? I have, as a builder, fitted hundreds of shower valves with no problems until I came across this thing !!

The instructions consist of 5 pictures and which one of these relates to the unit I have god only knows. There is no info as to the fixing of the body, eg wether it is suitable for studwork or has to be fitted to a solid wall.

Also it looks like the hot and cold inlets require a threaded male "whatever" at bath size, 3/4" !! so am I to assume i need a 15mm to 3/4 threaded elbow or what? as again there are no instructions or info given. On all the diagrams it shows what looks like a threaded pipe being tightened by a set of stilsons -my god !! almost looks as if its a gas fitting.

Can anyone help me with this or do I tell the customer to spend some money and get a proper shower valve, one that conforms to our plumbing standards like maybe a mira.

Thanks :)
