IMPORTANT:
¾ NOTE: The screws on the front of the trim plate are
aesthetic only and do not serve any mechanical
purpose and should not be removed.
¾ To ensure this product is installed properly, you
must read and follow these guidelines.
¾ The owner/user of this product must keep this
information for future reference.
¾ This product is intended to work with the
Waterworks Universal 1/2" Thermostatic Valve
(GUTH56R) which features anti-scald protection.
The risk of scalding exists until the installer has
properly calibrated/adjusted the temperature
setting and set the integrated high limit stop on the
valve prior to final trim installation.
¾ Be sure your installation conforms to federal state,
and local codes. In the State of Massachusetts, all
installations must comply with the rules and
regulations set forth within 248 CMR.
¾ This thermostatic valve trim only mixes hot and cold
water. It does not have volume control or shut-off
capabilities. A diverter or wall valve (sold
separately) control on/off/volume and must be
installed for each fitting that will have water flowing
to it. This valve trim cannot be used directly with a
diverting tub spout.
¾ This product must be installed by a professional
licensed contractor and must be onsite prior to
rough-in, this allows the installer to visualize the
installation.
¾ Inspect this product to ensure you have all the parts
required for proper installation.
¾ Use only a strap wrench or protected/smooth-jaw
wrench on any finished surface.
¾ The use of certain plumber's putty may stain stone
or tile surfaces.
TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION:
¾ The risk of scalding exists until the installer has
properly calibrated/adjusted the temperature
setting prior to final trim installation.

2. Turn on the water supply and a wall valve to run
water through the thermostatic valve.
3. Slowly rotate the cartridge stem clockwise to attain
full cold then rotate it counter-clockwise to attain
full hot. Verify a full range of temperature exists.
NOTE: It is approximately 3/4 of a rotation from full
cold to full hot.
4. With the water running, rotate the cartridge stem to
the adjust the temperature to the maximum desired
bathing temperature, verified with a thermometer.
5. Slide the limit stop back onto the cartridge stem,
making sure to properly align it with the pin on the
cartridge bonnet. Slide the o-ring back to its original
position to prevent the limit stop from sliding off the
stem then turn the water off. See Figure 2
