IMPORTANT AND SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read these instructions carefully before starting installation and keep in a safe place
for future reference.
This Installation Guide contains instructions for the correct
connection of the Duo product. The warranty will be
invalidated if the product is not installed according to these
instructions. Aquatica accepts no liability for loss or damage
resulting from installation or use of the product that is not
in accordance with these instructions.
All Aquatica valves are mixed flow products, which, for
optimum performance, require hot and cold supplies
to be reasonably balanced, with no more than 0.5bar
pressure difference between them.
This product MUST be installed by a competent person in
accordance with all current relevant state and municipal
statutes and regulations, including building regulations.
All showers requiring an electrical connection MUST be
installed by a certified plumber and electrician. Before any
electrical connections are made, the electricity supply must
be turned off at the mains switch. All electrical installation
must be carried out only by a certified electrician.
We recommend that the temperature of the shower hot
water supply should not exceed 65°C (149F).
The processor is supplied factory pre-set at a maximum
temperature of 40°C (104F), in line with cUPC standards.
The maximum temperature is fully adjustable to suit the site
conditions.
Important: The processor must be installed in an ac-
cessible location for servicing and maintenance (and
no warranty claim can be considered or liability ac-
cepted by Aquatica if lack of accessibility has pre-
vented maintenance).
The processor must not be installed in situations where
either the ambient temperature is likely to exceed 40°C
(104F) or where freezing may occur.
The user controls must not be installed in situations where
the ambient temperature is likely to fall below 5°C(41F) or
rise above 70°C. (158F).
The minimum depth of w’)all required to fit the control fixing
brackets is 70mm (2 3/4”). 35mm (1.4”) depth is required if
the rear of the bracket is cut down.
Cables mounted on surfaces must be protected by a suit-
able approved conduit. This applies even in a loft, where
there may be a risk of damage by vermin.
Cables that are chased into walls must also be
protected by a conduit or sheathing to allow removal
for service and maintenance.
The power lead must not be replaced by anyone other than
the manufacturer or its accredited agent.
The user control operates from a low voltage source.
Please check for hidden pipes or cables before drilling
any holes.
The Multiplex Duo is suitable for domestic or commercial
use. This product is supplied with a 5 year guarantee.
This product is not intended for use by children or persons
with reduced physical or mental capabilities, and should
not be used by such persons without appropriate instruc-
tion and supervision.
WARNING
CONTINUOUSLY TURNING THE CONTROL WHEEL IN
THE CLOCKWISE DIRECTION MAY OVERRIDE THE
PRE-SET MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE, RESULTING IN
A RISK OF SCALDING.
ALWAYS TAKE CARE WHEN OPERATING THE
CONTROL WHEEL, AND DO NOT LEAVE CHIL-
DREN UNATTENDED WHILST THE PRODUCT IS IN
OPERATION.
Pipe sizing
To reduce pressure losses and help maintain flow rate, 3/4”
pipework should be used on the inlets and reduced to 1/2”
as close to the processor as possible, and elbows should
be kept to a minimum.
Pipe runs on both inlet and outlet should be as short as
possible to avoid reduction of flow rate at the shower head.
If 1/2” pipe must be used, or long pipe runs are unavoida-
ble on the outlet, copper pipe should be used rather than
plastic, particularly if a diverter is fitted.
All copper pipework must be cross-bonded and connected
to an earthing point.
Full bore isolation valves must be fitted for maintenance
purposes.
Flushing
After completing soldering the pipework should be thor-
oughly flushed out in accordance with the state and munic-
ipal regulations prior to connection of the product.
After installation
We recommend that the shower is not used for 24 hours
after first being installed to allow the back up battery to
become fully charged before use.Please familiarise the end
user with how the Multiplex Duo works.

Prepare the wall to take the
control fixing brackets. The
installation of the control
fixing brackets will depend
on each individual situation
i.e. if there is access from
behind the shower.
Brackets attached from
‘behind’:
40mm diameter holes are
required.
Brackets attached from
‘front’:
68mm diameter holes are
required.
Conduits should be used in
the walls where necessary
to protect the cables and
allow maintenance.
Note: If a double trim plate
is used the control fixing
brackets must be
positioned so that the
openings at the back are
horizontal as shown.
