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.

supplies, make sure they are IAPMO and/or CSA approved products.
