ROUGH-IN:
➢
Check incoming water pressure; ideal operating pressure is 40 – 50 psi.
Maximum static pressure = 125 psi. / Minimum static pressure = 25 psi.
➢
Separate hot and cold supply stops, accessibly located, will facilitate installation
and repair.
➢
The valve should be on-site before rough-in is started.This allows the
installer to visualize the installation and verify the centers for the
3

" female
NPT connections (as shown in the specification diagram above).
➢
The assembly should be held on the wall to verify placement before mark-
ing inlets.This ensures that the showerhead is at the proper height and that
there is no interference with ceiling.
➢
Be sure to have blocking in the wall to support the mounting plates.
➢
The hot inlet is on the left and the cold inlet is on the right.
➢
Having verified the valve centers, rough out the hot and cold lines out of
the wall at the proper centers, making sure that the piping is level, secure,
and protected.Then, test for leaks.

Installation Guidelines
FLUSHING OUT SYSTEM:
➢
Loosen the screws in face of valve in order to remove valve cover,
cartridge is attached.
➢
Using the flat gasket provided to make a seal, flip the cover/cartridge
over and secure to the face of the valve using the screws provided.
➢
Fully open the hot and cold supply lines and flush out for several minutes.
Return the cartridge to its original position.
FINISH:
Please refer to the specification diagrams on the left side of this page.
➢
Use only a protected, smooth-jawed, or strap wrench on any finished surface.
➢
Flush supply piping before installing the valve.
➢
Remove the wall elbows from the valve. Having put the escutcheons in
place, thread the connections, making sure that they are in the proper
position to receive the valve. Secure the elbows to the body using the
washers that are provided.
➢
Fix the unit to the wall with mounting screws provided.
➢
Thread the shower arm into the ball socket using thread sealant (loc-tite 638)
provided. Be sure to completely cover the threads with sealant.
WARNING:Thread sealant working time is approximately one minute.
Allow 20 minutes drying time before handling.
➢
Pressurize and check for leaks.
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT:
Adjusting the Temperature.
➢
Using a thermometer, check that the water temperature agrees with what
the pointer indicates. If not, calibration is necessary.
➢
Remove handle assembly (#4) by unscrewing exposed screw on face of
lever handle. Cover should be hand tight. Note: Removal of handle assembly
will expose set-screw on temperature indicator (#18). Loosen set-screw
and remove part #18.
➢
Let the water run at an average temperature and take a reading of the
water temperature with a thermometer.Temperature adjustments are
made by inserting and turning a screwdriver into the square tube (#15)
and turning clockwise to decrease and counter clockwise to increase.
➢
Place the temperature indicator (#18) on the cap (#16) and adjust the
metal pointer to the position corresponding to the obtained water temperature.
➢
Lock the set-screw onto the cap (#16) and reaffix the handle assembly.
➢
In order to bypass the temperature safety limit of 104° F, depress the
metal pointer and turn counterclockwise to temperatures exceeding this
limit. For maximum bather safety, avoid activating this bypass feature.
