1. Determine the location of the valve. Make sure the back of the valve will measure 2 3/4" - 3 1/2" from the surface of
the finished wall. Then install support framing to mount the valve to.
2. Position the valve in the wall (check depth) and secure into place on the support framing using the provided screws.
3. Install 3/4"NPT threaded copper adapters to the outlets and hot & cold inlets, applying teflon tape to all
threaded connections. Then solder copper piping onto adapters and run to designated water supply or outlet.
Important! Take the following precautions if soldering copper piping directly onto valve:
a) Remove ALL components from the valve prior to soldering, including plaster guards, cartridges and service stops.
b) Wrap valve body with cold rag before soldering. Take special care not to overheat brass rough-in.
c) Use copper piping only, do not attempt to solder steel piping to valve.
d) Flush all pipes before reinstalling cartridge and service stops.
e) Reinstall all components after soldering.
4. Install 3/4" nipple to the outlet so that it extends beyond the finished wall and install a water-tight cap.
5. Turn on the hot and cold water supplies and check for any leaks.
6. Remove plaster guards. Make sure volume cartridge is in the OFF position (center). Remove outlet cap.
Make sure to have a container set up to collect water. Now open the valve and flush the system on all outlets.
7. Turn valve off and reinstall plaster guards and cap.
