Installation Guide
6
If your installation is for a shower only, apply Thread Seal Tape in a clockwise direction to the Tub Outlet Port ❶
and install the included Plug Cap. Wrench tighten. If you are performing a pipe fitting installation, apply Thread
Seal Tape around the pipe threads in a clockwise direction.
7
Referencing the Rough-In Drawing, mount the Valve Assembly ❶ to
structure within the wall. Ensuring the Shower Outlet ❷ and Tub
Outlet ❸ are positioned perfectly vertical. Mounting Hardware and
Mounting Structure must be capable of supporting the Valve in use.
Mounting hardware is not included.
If you are performing a
Pipe Fitting Outlet
Installation, please
proceed to Step 8.
OR
If you are performing a
Copper Sweat Outlet
Installation, please
proceed to Step 9.
IMPORTANT:
Install all outlet connections
(Pipe or Copper Sweat)
PRIOR to installing PEX
inlet connections.
8 PIPE FITTING INSTALLATION
Connect the Shower Outlet Pipe ❸ (not included), and Tub Outlet Pipe ❹ (not included), by threading them into
the Valve Body ❶ in a clockwise direction. Tighten the pipes to the Valve Body ❶ with a Pipe Wrench. Connect
the Pipe Elbows ❺ (not included), to the end of the shower outlet and tub outlet pipes. If performing a shower
only installation, install Plug Cap ❻ in place of tub outlet piping, as shown in STEP 6.
NOTE: The HOT water supply lines go into the H inlet, and the COLD water supply lines
go into the C inlet. Do not use PEX or CPVC between the valve and spout.

9 COPPER SWEAT INSTALLATION
When performing a Copper Sweat installation, it is recommended that you remove the Bonnet ❸ with O-Ring ❹, Valve
Cartridge ❺, Integral Stops ❻, and Diverter Cartridge ❷ (where applicable) to prevent damage during soldering. Use
a Slip Joint Wrench to unthread and remove the Bonnet ❸. Then remove Valve Cartridge ❺, from Valve Body ❼.
Unthread and remove the Integral Stops ❻ using a Socket Wrench equipped with a 9/16” (14mm) Deep Well Socket. If
your Shower Valve is equipped with an Integral Diverter, remove the Diverter Retaining Nut ❶ using a Socket Wrench
equipped with a 13/16” (20mm) Deep Well Socket. Remove Diverter Cartridge ❷ to prevent damage during soldering.
After soldering (STEP 10) is completed, reinstall the Valve Cartridge ❺, making sure that the mounting posts are aligned
and engaged to the corresponding holes in the Valve Body ❼, with the “H” marking to the left side as shown below.
Verify that the O-Ring ❹ is in place on the Bonnet ❸. Install Bonnet ❸ over the Valve Cartridge ❺ and thread onto the
Valve Body ❼. Tighten securely with Slip Joint Wrench on the machined flats of the Bonnet ❸. Final torque should be
150-168 in*lb. Take care to not over tighten connection or damage may occur. Reinstall the Integral Stops ❻ using a
Socket Wrench equipped with a 9/16” (14mm) Deep Well Socket. Final torque should be 70-106 in*lb. If your Shower
Valve is equipped with an Integral Diverter, reinstall the Diverter Cartridge ❷ taking care to align mounting posts of
Cartridge with the corresponding holes in the Diverter Valve Body. Install Diverter Retaining Nut ❶ and tighten with a
Socket Wrench equipped with a 13/16” (20mm) Deep Well Socket. Final torque should be 35-53 in*lb. Take care to not
over-tighten connections.
NOTE: Never install the valve body upside down!
