Operation of PIN / Wireless Model Shower Timer
How it Works
- Allows you to set a different shower time for each user using up to 10 PIN codes that you allocate
- A 5 digit PIN number activates the shower for the time duration allocated to that user
- Only one shower is allowed in a 24 hour period for each PIN number, unless you activate a special one.
- One minute before the time expires, the hot water is cut off for one second giving the user adequate warning before the shower cut off
- Wireless (radio) connection is available for easy programming
Settings
- Shower and waiting times are chosen by setting the unit to the desired shower length and wait time, which is done after installation
- There is no shower timer beeper in this model
- The settings are changed by programming the PIN box unit – it does not need to be removed from the wall
Installation
- In order to fit the solenoid valve (electrically operated water switch), you must have access to the hot water pipe serving the shower and you may need a plumber to cut that pipe and fit the valve.
- The 24 Volt AC power pack is located near the solenoid valve so you may need to run an extension cord from the nearest power point.
- The keypad (pictured) is easily installed in or near the bathroom. It is a standard power fitting (80 x 120 mm) and will screw to a standard backing plate. No wires are necessary here as it contains a radio transmitter.
- Included is 5 meters of data cable to hard wire the keypad to the solenoid valve if required – however a very easy wireless connection is a standard alternative
- Program the user PINs and times prior to use.
- The shower timer is ready to use once connected to power.
Important Note: The shower head and batteries are not supplied.
You can usually use your existing shower head with the shower timer or save more water by replacing it with a water saving shower head!
