3. Install the Supplies
Install 1/2" hot and cold supply piping to the mixer valve.
Temporarily pull the plaster guards from the handle and spout
shanks. Do not discard them at this time.
Position a bucket in front of the spout shank, and turn on the
water supplies to the mixer valve.
Slowly open the mixer valve stems, and allow the hot and cold
water to flow from the spout shank for about a minute.
Close the valve, and carefully inspect all connections for leakage.
Repair if necessary.
Turn off the water supplies. Open the valve stems to relieve the
water pressure.
Reattach the plaster guards to the handle and spout shanks.
4. Finish the Wall
NOTE: To ensure proper fit and appearance, do not oversize the
spout and handle shank holes.
Complete the finished wall with three 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) diameter
holes for the spout and handle shanks. Space the hole centers 4"
(10.2 cm) apart.
Remove and discard the plaster guards when the finished wall is
complete.
