Mai nte nan ce

Your new pot filler 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.

Sat et y T ip s

• 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.

Imp or ta n t P oi n ts

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 one 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. The fittings should be installed by the
State-licensed plumber.

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