This Caral surface-mounted thermostatic valve, which is mounted on the wall, is the valve from the Caral thermostatic rain shower set, supplied separately. It has a connection for the rain shower bar and a connection for a shower hose.
Design & finish
The valve is made of brass with a high-gloss chrome finish. You mount it on the wall (surface-mounted), so without a concealed part in the wall.
Application & compatibility
The valve connects to two wall couplings with a center-to-center distance of 15 cm. With the included S-couplings, you can bridge a center-to-center distance of 140 to 160 mm. The connection is 1/2 inch. The valve operates at a water pressure between 0.5 and 5 bar; at a higher pressure, you place a pressure-reducing valve before the valve. The pressure difference between hot and cold water must not exceed 2 bar. The valve is not suitable for a close-in boiler or any other low-pressure system.
Installation & use
The cold water inlet is on the right. Gaskets for the wall couplings are not included. The maximum temperature is preset at 38 °C; make sure the hot water is at least 10 °C warmer than this setting. If the thermostatic internal mechanism wears out, you only replace that part. Clean the valve with a soft cloth, without using aggressive cleaning agents.

Frequently asked questions
Does this thermostatic valve work with a close-in boiler? No. The valve is not suitable for a close-in boiler or any other low-pressure system; it requires a minimum water pressure of 0.5 bar.
Does the valve fit if my wall couplings are not exactly 15 cm apart? With the included S-couplings, you can connect the valve to wall couplings that are 140 to 160 mm apart.
