DELIVERY
Your AquaLusso shower will either be delivered or collected from the place of purchase (your AquaLusso Stockist) or delivered directly from stock. If the shower is delivered from stock, your shower will arrive on a pallet and is delivered on a large tail-lift lorry. We can arrange a smaller 7.5 ton vehicle if you notify your stockist at least 48hrs before delivery is due. You will need to ensure you have a place to check and unpack the pallet and store it safely upon its arrival - a garage is ideal.

ON ARRIVAL
Please check your delivery fully upon its arrival. If there are any damages to the packaging and/or contents, please inform us immediately, and refuse the delivery. We will then check the damaged delivery upon its return and organise a prompt replacement. If you sign the slip it assumes there are no damages unless you indicate otherwise. If you see any damages once you have opened the boxes, also inform your retailer or ourselves of these within 48 hours of delivery, so we can quickly arrange replacement parts for you and issue a claim to the delivery company (notification beyond 48hrs WILL incur charges for the delivery of your replacement parts).

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Our steam shower cabins require 1 x 13amp electrical connection. Steam shower and Whirlpool Cabins require 2 x 13amp electrical connections. Whirlpool baths require 1 x 13amp electrical connection.

Connection to the main electricity supply should be made via an isolated fused spur wired back to your consumer unit with an RCD fitted in the consumer unit. The cabin arrives with a standard 3 pin socket and inline RCD used for testing during manufacture.
The Plug and RCD should be removed.

WATER REQUIREMENTS
Your shower cabin requires a separate hot and cold water supply of between 1 -3 bar of pressure. The water pressures MUST be balanced (the same pressure on both supplies). Failure to have balanced water pressures will result in damage to the Thermostatic Cartridge.

Where the product is installed in a Hard Water area, measures MUST be taken to fit a descaling device to provide the shower with clean water that will not build up deposits in the valve, steam generator, thermostatic cartridge or other parts of the shower resulting in reduced function or total failure. AquaLusso will not cover parts that fail due to Limescale build up.

The pipework should be recessed to allow the cabin to fit flush to the wall. The connections for the water are at the rear of the cabin at a location corresponding into the control panel. The hot and Cold water pipework should be finished to between 120 - 150 cm from the floor with 15mm compression fittings.

Our Steam Showers and Whirlpool baths are able to operate from:

1. Combi Boilers
2. Pressurised Pumps
3. Pressurised Cylinders/Megaflow Systems

Where the water supply is gravity fed or the pressure
is not adequate, we recommend you install a Pump
to increase water pressure/flow.

FLOOR AND WALL PREPARATION
It is recommended that you prepare your walls and floor prior to installation of your cabin. The cabins are either acrylic backed or mirrored glass, so you may choose not to fully tile the walls behind.

The floor must be smooth and level. Tongue and grooved floorboards, carpet and vinyl’s are not recommended as they will not allow the cabin to be moved freely over the surface (which is required for assembly and possible service access at later times).

SPACE AND ACCESSIBILITY
When choosing your new steam shower cabin, bear in mind that some of our cabins have large tub bases. Ensure that you have enough space to store the cabin safely (especially the glass) until it is to be fitted.

Check you are able to get the packages and contents to the bathroom or room the shower is to be installed in with ease (consider especially stairways and narrow hallways).

During the assembly process and for servicing after installation you will need to ensure you can slide the cabin away from the wall/corner to move around the cabin as required. The cabins have long flexible hoses to allow it to remain connected for both water and waste for this purpose.

DO NOT POSITION SINKS, TOILETS ETC THAT WILL RESTRICT ACCESS BEHIND THE CABIN.
