6 SUPPLY CONNECTIONS

Proper fittings for your valve body type are required.

Connect water Supply Lines (6A) to Valve Body Inlets (6B). Hot water supply lines

go into left inlet. Cold water supply lines go into right inlet. (Supply lines are not

included). Please follow manufacturer’s instructions when installing supply lines.
IRON PIPE: Valve Body Inlets (6B) and Outlets (6C) are designed to

accommodate 1/2-14 NPT pipe. Use thread sealant or PTFE Plumber’s tape

on all threaded fittings, according to manufacturer’s instructions.

CAUTION: For iron pipes, it is not recommended to reduce outlet pipe

diameter.
PEX PIPE: Valve Body inlets (6B) are designed to accommodate a 1/2” PEX

pipe and outlets (6C) are designed to accommodate a 1/2” copper pipe.

Remove Plaster Guard (6D).

NOTE: This Valve Body is not to be used with Polybutylene or the Wirsbo

“Expansion” PEX system.
COPPER PIPE: Valve Body inlets (6B) and outlets (6C) are designed to

accommodate a 1/2” copper pipe.

WARNING: Remove Plaster Guard (6D), Backup Plate (6E) and Cartridge

Assembly (6F) prior to soldering any inlet or outlet connections. Failure to do

so can result in water damage. For valves with integral stops, open valve stems

prior to soldering (see step 12).

7 TUB & SHOWER OUTLET CONNECTIONS

Connect Shower (7A) and Tub (7B) Outlet Pipes to Valve Body (7C). Connect

Pipe Elbows (7D) (not included) to ends of both pipes. We recommend using

drop elbows (7D) (not included). Securely fasten to framing or other solid

support. The height for outlet pipes is measured from the center of pipe elbow

to center of the valve body, as shown.

WARNING: For Iron Pipe Connections or threaded fittings, use thread

sealant or PTFE Plumber’s tape according to manufacturer’s instructions.

WARNING:

Use only 1/2” Iron or Copper Pipe between valve

and tub spout (No PEX)! Do not reduce the inner pipe diameter!

8 SHOWER ONLY OUTLET CONNECTIONS

Connect Shower Outlet Pipe (8A) to Valve Body (8B). Plug Bottom Outlet (8C)

with Pipe Plug (8D). Connect Pipe Elbow (8E) (not included) to end of the pipe.

For copper pipe outlets, we recommend using drop elbows (8E) (not included).

Securely fasten to framing or other solid support. The height for the outlet pipe

is measured from center of pipe elbow to center of valve body, as shown.

WARNING: For Iron Pipe Connections or threaded fittings, use thread

sealant or PTFE Plumber’s tape according to manufacturer’s instructions.
