VOLA 2261 shower compatibility FAQ

Can I use the VOLA 2261 with a combination boiler?

Boiler type alone does not confirm suitability. The VOLA documentation checked identifies the 2261 as a manually controlled concealed mixer using the 2200 mixer and 060 head shower, but does not confirm combi-boiler compatibility. Ask a qualified installer to confirm suitability with VOLA for your boiler and water supply before ordering.

What minimum and maximum water pressure does it need?

A current, UK-specific minimum and maximum operating-pressure range for the complete 2261 assembly has not been verified from the VOLA documentation checked. Obtain confirmation from VOLA and have your installer check the available supply pressure before installation.

What flow rate must my boiler supply?

A minimum boiler flow requirement for the complete 2261 has not been verified. VOLA lists 22 litres/minute at 3 bar for the 060 head when paired with a 5000 mixer, not the 2261's 2200 mixer. That figure is not a minimum requirement or a guaranteed flow rate for this product. Your installer should confirm the required hot-water delivery with VOLA.

Are there special installation requirements?

This is a concealed, build-in mixer, not a surface-mounted replacement. VOLA specifies ½-inch connections to copper, steel, iron or PEX pipework for the 2200 mixer. Have a qualified installer confirm wall space, pipework and the applicable VOLA fitting instructions before work begins.
