Tools and Materials

Before You Begin

CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Before ﬁnishing the

wall, make sure the supply lines are connected to the mixer

valve with the cold line plumbed on the left and the hot line

plumbed on the right.

IMPORTANT! Unless otherwise indicated, the illustrations in this

document show installation for a handle located to the right of the

spout. The valve is designed for handle installation on the right.

Special steps will need to be performed to position the handle to the

left of the valve.

NOTICE: For exterior wall installations, be sure proper wall

insulation is installed to prevent frozen pipes.
