Triton Aspirante 8.5kW pressure release device

[Richard90]

Hi,

The pressure release device in my Triton Aspirante shower has blown; unfortunately I can't work out how to access it to replace it
It is behind the outlet pipe and there's just not enough room to maneuver the outlet pipe around to get access.
Does anyone know how to replace it in this model?

Hard to tell from manual (if you can post a photo?), looks like it’s 2 screws, then twist to undo?

yes that's right - two screws holding in the outlet pipe
unscrewing them allows it be move up and down a little, but not enough to get it out
rotating it around isn't possible because the pressure relief device itself gets in the way

How far does it rotate and is it enough to pull down?

 

[Richard90]

Only a couple of mm either way, and unfortunately no

Had a plumber round this morning - the answer here is that the bottom of the shower is a trim piece that can be removed to give access. Unfortunately this wasn't obvious because it had been siliconed all the way round (apparently wrong) and a bunch of limecale also made it a bit tricky
