What’s included in the price?
Steam Shower Fitting Services, will assemble your shower, seal and connect to your water supply and waste. Connect the Pressure Equalising Valve*, connect to the Mains and fully test the shower.

They will then do a complete handover and demonstrate the full functions and features of your new shower.

All work is guaranteed - if there is a problem within the first 28 days that is as a result of the work they have undertaken, they will return and fix the problem at no extra cost to you.
The installers will remove/clean/tidy any mess they make during the install.

Your bathroom or en-suite, where the AquaLusso Shower is going to be installed will need to be made ready for the installation. Hot and Cold water supplies must be provided to either the corner, or centre rear (depending upon model) of where the shower is to be installed. The pipework should be fitted with 15mm compression fittings and finished to approximately 1 meter from floor level.

The floor should be a smooth and even surface. Where floor tiles etc are used, these should extend fully under where the shower will be installed so that the shower will not be in any way restricted from being slid in or out of the final installation location.

Do not use vinyl or carpet on the floor or other similar materials that might restrict the movement of the shower.

Any pipework or other extrusions within the footprint of the shower may have an impact on the final positioning of the shower against any of the walls.

A waste connection to your soil pipe will also be required to connect the shower to. You may also need to have a Waste Trap fitted. You can purchase this separately or it can be pre-arrange for the installers to bring one for you**. If the shower requires an electrical supply, then a spur/power outlet in the locality of installation will also be required for the installer to connect to.

Once delivered, ensure the shower has been carefully inspected and it's fully ready for installation BEFORE the installers arrive, any additional visits due to the neglect of checking the shower will incur further charges.

Additional costs

Additional works are charged at £45 per hour which covers 2 installers for the hour. Where any additional work is required, the installers will advise before proceeding and provide timescales and costs as required. Where you require the installers to do additional work as part of the install, this must be notified to the installers before booking so that costs, timescales any any additional parts or tools can be calculated.

Terms and Conditions

A booking deposit of £100 is required to be paid in advance, with the remainder to be paid after the installation handover has taken place.

If you are deciding to install the unit yourself heres a quick guideline of the installation enviroment required

Our Units

All the fittings, hoses, wastes, everything you need are included in one great price. There are a few guidelines which need to be meet so you can enjoy your perfect new shower.

1. SPACE

Because all steam shower units are free standing and built away from their final resting positions, there must be enough room available in the bathroom to access the unit from all sides; this is due to the fixings behind the unit. There must be enough room for the installer (at least 40cm maneuverability on all sides) and 15cm at least from the celine to plumb the overhead waste. Please check the dimensions of your desired unit before ordering.

Floors should be completely finished tile or plywood without any gaps to ensure unit support legs can be placed; 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.

If you the installation is on ground level on a solid floor, please ensure adequate drainage is in place and fully operational prior to our arrival, in some cases showers installed in this situation are installed on a raised platform to help aid the units drainage

2. 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 may result in damage to the Thermostatic Cartridge, a pressure equalising valve should be fitted

The pipe work 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 pipe work should be finished between 100 - 150 cm from the floor with 15mm compression fittings. For low level tray and corner units (Desire, Pure, Classic, Essence) pipes should be installed tight into the corner as the units have an apex recess behind the centre control panel. (SEE IMAGE BELOW) For large tubs or whirlpool bath units (Triton, Inspire, Aquatic, Indulge) pipe can be situated either under the tub or recessed behind

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, you will need to install a Pump prior to our arrival
to increase water pressure/flow.

The fee for the fitting is not only for the build of the unit itself, it includes all the fittings, hoses, wastes AND plumbing work that goes with it. All we ask is that there is a hot and cold feed already present, ideally behind the unit, or somewhere in the bathroom to connect to and that there is a working, 1 1/2" waste pipe present anywhere under the floor of the unit or out the back to ensure the unit can sit against the wall. Please see image below.

3. Electric Supply

All our steam units are powered off a single standard 13 amp supply unless the unit is a whirlpool unit which is powered by two standard 13 amp supplies. The supply must come from a Isolated Fused Spur that MUST be switched from outside the bathroom. The unit has a supply lead of 1600mm.

PLEASE ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR ELECTRICIAN IF UNSURE

Due to strict installation laws it is not possible for our installers/plumbers to wire the shower unit up to the present electrics, the unit does however come with a standard UK plug fitting which can be used to demonstrate the unit fully working and should be removed by your electrician upon its final fix.

All electrical work MUST be carried out by a qualified Part P registered electrician and in accordance with current regulations, Failure to adhere to these regulations may cause serious injury, even death, it may also be illegal.
