Maintenance
Your new faucet is designed for years of trouble-free performance.
Keep it looking new by cleaning it periodically with a soft cloth.
Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool and harsh chemicals as these will dull the finish
and void your warranty.
Safety Tips
• If you use soldering for the installation of the faucet, the seats, cartridges and
washers will have to be removed before using flame. Otherwise, warranty will be
void on these parts.
• Protect your eyes with safety glasses when cutting or soldering water supply line.
• Cover your drain to avoid losing parts.
Important points
Prior to beginning installation, turn off the cold and hot water lines and open the
old faucet to release built-up pressure. When installing your new faucet, turn the
connector nuts finger-tight, then use one wrench to anchor the fitting and a second
wrench to tighten the nut an additional turn. Connections that are too tight will
reduce the integrity of the system. Wrap all threaded connections with Teflon tape
available at your local hardware or plumbing supply store. Always wrap in a
clockwise direction.

All installations can vary depending on how your previous faucet was installed.

available wherever plumbing supplies are sold. When choosing your installation
supplies, make sure they are IAPMO and/or CSA approved products.
