How to Replace the Shroud Kit on a Methven Kiri Satinjet (UK)

UK guide to swapping the shroud kit in a Methven Kiri Satinjet shower valve. TMV2 compliance, part numbers, tools.

Methven

The part

Replace the concealing plate and shroud on the Methven Kiri Satinjet where limescale has locked the temperature handle.

Isolate

Undo the two handle grub screws (2.5 mm hex on most Methven models). Lift the shroud off — do not lever, it cracks.

Swap the shroud kit

Fit new O-rings between the wall plate and shroud to keep the IP54 rating.

Commission

Balance hot and cold to within 0.5 bar. Run the Methven Kiri Satinjet at max flow for 3 minutes.

Verify max outlet temperature stays below 46 °C per BS EN 1111 by shutting off cold and reading the outlet.

Frequently asked questions

Chrome or brushed?
The Methven Kiri Satinjet kit ships in polished chrome as standard. Brushed finishes carry a -BR suffix.
Wall plate offset?
10–35 mm adjustment on Methven concealed valves — use the shroud packer to hide any tile mismatch.
OEM or aftermarket for Methven?
For TMV2/TMV3 compliance always fit genuine Methven cartridges. Aftermarket voids the Kiri Satinjet approval.
