WARNING: This valve is factory set to deliver water at 100°F; however, it is the installer’s responsibility to verify correct temperature

setting to prevent risk on scalding or other severe injury prior to consumer use. The installer is responsible for adjusting maximum temperature setting according to Thermostatic Rough and Thermostatic Trim Installation Instructions.

Operating Specifications:

Recommended Supply Pressure: 20 to 70 psi Recommended Hot Water Supply Temperature: 120 to 140°F Nominal Flow Rate @ 60 psi: 18.2 gpm

* Operating pressures between hot and cold supplies should vary no more than 30 psi. † If water pressure exceeds 70 psi, install a Pressure-Reducing Valve (RPV).

‡ Follow all applicable local plumbing codes when setting the temperature on the water heater.

WATER CONNECTIONS

• Remove and discard THREAD PROTECTORS (5)

• Pre-assemble FITTINGS (6) prior to attaching to

VALVE (1)

• Apply thread sealant to all FITTING (6) threads and

attach to VALVE (1)

• Attach “COLD” INLET to COLD SUPPLY and

“HOT” INLET to HOT SUPPLY. All soldering of FITTINGS (6) shall be performed a minimum of 4” away from VALVE (1)

• Install VOLUME CONTROL VALVES (6a) (not

included) a minimum of 8½” from VALVE (1). Perform all other required connections to output device(s) (i.e. showerhead, handshower, etc…)

• Turn on water supply and check for leaks

IMPORTANT: Flush supply lines prior to installation to prevent damage and malfunction of thermostatic cartridge.

IMPORTANT: Cold water supply must marked “COLD” and hot water supply must marked “HOT”.

CAUTION: This valve contains plastic and rubber components. Do not sweat or braze directly to the valve body. Do not apply excessive heat to the valve body when you make solder connections. Do not apply flux or acids directly to the valve, as damage to the seals, plastic components, and trim finish may result.

CAUTION: Inlet and outlet threaded joint connections should be made with plumbers PTFE tape or liquid sealant. Oil-based, non-setting compounds should not be used.
