IMPORTANT

1. To ensure this product is installed properly, you must

read and follow these guidelines.

2. The owner/user of the valve must keep this information

for future reference.

3. This valve includes integrated service stops. Make sure

the tile guard is in place.

4. This valve features anti scald protection.The risk of

scalding exists until the installer has properly

calibrated/adjusted the temperature setting during final

trim installation.

5. Valve body rough-in depth is 2 ½" the centerline of the

inlets to the face of the finished wall.

6. Be sure your installation conforms to local codes.

7. This thermostatic valve only mixes hot and cold water

and does not have volume control or shut off capability.

A diverter or wall valves (provided separately) control

on/off/volume and must be installed for each fitting that

will have water flowing to it.

8. This product must be installed by a professional contractor.

9. Refer to the specification and assembly drawings attached.

Valves are sold partially assembled but shown fully disas-

sembled for illustrative and service purposes only.

10. If soldering any connections, remove cartridge to

prevent damage to seals and internal assembly.

11. The trim should be on-site prior to rough in and allows

the installer to visualize the installation.

12. Inspect this product to assure you have all parts shown

that are required for proper installation.

13. Check incoming water pressure; ideal operating pressure

is 50-60 psi. The minimum is 25 psi. and the maximum is

80 psi.

ROUGH IN:

14 . Make sure the valve body (6) is positioned according to

valve markings so the inlets are situated with hot piped

on the left and cold piped on the right. Positioned

correctly, notice the inlets are below an imaginary

horizontal line drawn between the 2 cover screws (9).

15. IMPORTANT: Valve rough-in depth is 2-1/2 “measured

from the centerline of the inlets to the surface of the

finished wall.

16. . Run 3/4" copper supply lines to the proper height of

the valve inlets and be sure to secure all piping and

fittings.

17. For each fitting that will have water flowing to it, install a

wall valve or diverter valve (both provided separately) at

the same rough in depth and according to the flow

direction arrow marked on the wall valve or diverter

valve body.

18. The bottom port of the valve body is plugged (6a),but

can be used to supply water to other fittings.

19. Install the tile guard (10).
