Prior To Installation

Before installing the flushometer, be sure
the following items are properly installed:

• Urinal fixture

• Drain line

• Water supply line

Tools Required for Installation

• Slotted screwdriver

• Standard box wrenches

• Smooth jawed adjustable wrench or
Chicago Faucet Quaturn wrench.

Water Pressure and Volume

Geberit valves require a minimum operat­ing pressure of 10 psi while flushing. All
plumbing fixtures demand at least 10 psi,
so if this minimum requirement is met, the
valve should function properly.

In addition to pressure, volume require­ments must be met to secure an adequate
syphon. Most toilets require a
minimum flow rate of 30 gpm. The lower
the pressure, the larger the piping must be
to supply the minimum flow.

Geberit valves are designed to operate at
water pressure up to 100 psi. Ideally, pres­sures should range between 30-60 psi. At
pressures of 80 psi and above, we recom­mend the use of pressure reducing valves
in supply lines. At higher pressures,
splashing is inevitable, noise is increased
and the life span of all plumbing brass is
reduced.

It is recommended that air chambers
and/or water hammer arrestors be
installed with flush valves. They should be
installed as close to the fixture as possible.
Air chambers are helpful in supplying a
reservoir of water in the event of sudden
pressure drops.

Chrome Plating

If installation is into new construction, we
recommend protecting all chrome sur­faces from acid or cleaning fluid that can
discolor chrome, until the building is occu­pied. This will help to protect the surface
from damage.

Do not use serrated-jaw wrenches
on chrome surfaces. Use a smooth­jawed adjustable wrench or Chicago
Faucet Quaturn wrench.

IMPORTANT! Installations may be per­formed at different times of construc­tion by different individuals. For this

Safety Information

• Read this entire instruction sheet to
ensure proper installation.

• Compliance and conformity to local
codes and ordinances is the
responsibility of the installer.

Flush all the water supply lines

before making connections.

CAUTION indicates a practice or
condition that MAY result in damage to
