2. Check for any leaks around the cartridge housing and connections.
3. Test the shower's temperature and flow controls to ensure proper operation and temperature stability.

5. Принципи рада

Once installed, the Bristan Brass Thermostatic Cartridge automatically maintains the desired water temperature. It contains a wax element that expands and contracts in response to temperature changes, adjusting the mix of hot and cold water to compensate for fluctuations in either supply. This ensures a constant, comfortable, and safe water temperature, preventing scalding or sudden cold shocks.

6. Одржавање

• Чишћење: The cartridge itself does not require regular cleaning. However, if water quality is poor (e.g., hard water), mineral deposits can build up over time.
• Каменац: In hard water areas, limescale can affect cartridge performance. If you notice temperature fluctuations or reduced flow, the cartridge may need descaling. This typically involves removing the cartridge and soaking it in a suitable descaling solution designed for brass components, following the descaler's instructions.
• подмазивање: Periodically, the O-rings can be re-lubricated with silicone grease to ensure smooth operation and prevent wear. This is usually done during descaling or if the shower controls become stiff.
