required for proper installation. ¾
Use only a strap wrench or protected/smooth-jaw wrench on any finished surface.
¾
The use of certain plumber's putty may stain stone or tile surfaces.
TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION: ¾
The risk of scalding exists until the installer has properly calibrated/adjusted the temperature setting prior to final trim installation.
SPECIFICATIONS: Control Valve Rough-in Depth Minimum: 3-1/4" Control Valve Rough-in Depth Maximum: 4-1/4" Hot Limit Safety Stop: On Thermostatic Valve
1.
Remove the tile guard and threaded tube. Slide the o-ring and limit stop up on the cartridge stem. DO NOT REMOVE OR DAMAGE THE O-RING. See Figure 1.

The owner/user of this product must keep this information for future reference.
2.
Turn on the water supply and a wall valve to run water through the thermostatic valve.
¾
This product is intended to work with the Waterworks Universal 1/2" Thermostatic Valve (GUTH56R) which features anti-scald protection. The risk of scalding exists until the installer has properly calibrated/adjusted the temperature setting and set the integrated high limit stop on the valve prior to final trim installation.
3.
Slowly rotate the cartridge stem clockwise to attain full cold then rotate it counter-clockwise to attain full hot. Verify a full range of temperature exists. NOTE: It is approximately 3/4 of a rotation from full cold to full hot.
4.
With the water running, rotate the cartridge stem to the adjust the temperature to the maximum desired bathing temperature, verified with a thermometer.
5.
Slide the limit stop back onto the cartridge stem, making sure to properly align it with the pin on the cartridge bonnet. Slide the o-ring back to its original position to prevent the limit stop from sliding off the stem then turn the water off. See Figure 2

Be sure your installation conforms to federal state, and local codes. In the State of Massachusetts, all installations must comply with the rules and regulations set forth within 248 CMR. This thermostatic valve trim only mixes hot and cold water. It does not have volume control or shut-off capabilities. A diverter or wall valve (sold separately) control on/off/volume and must be installed for each fitting that will have water flowing to it. This valve trim cannot be used directly with a diverting tub spout.
¾
This product must be installed by a professional licensed contractor and must be onsite prior to rough-in, this allows the installer to visualize the installation.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Thermostatic Control Valve Trim INSPECT THE CALIBRATION:
¾
See Figure 5. for Steps 11-13.
6.
11.
Re-install the cut THREADED TUBE onto the VALVE.
7.
Turn the cartridge stem clockwise then turn the water on and confirm the limit stop is functioning properly by turning the stem counter-clockwise until the limit stop prevents further rotation. Verify the temperature to be the max temperature set in Step 4. If it is not the correct temperature, repeat the calibration process.
TRIM PLATE INSTALLATION: 8.
Re-install the THREADED TUBE and make a mark on the tube that is 1/8" in front of the finished wall.
9.
Remove the tube then cut the tube at the mark made in Step 8. DO NOT cut the end of the tube with the internal threads. See Figure 3.
12. Hold the TRIM PLATE against the finished wall, making sure FOAM GASKET is touching the wall. Thread and tighten the TRIM CONNECTOR onto the threaded tube, making sure the RED FIBER WASHER is between the trim connector and trim plate. 13. With the correct orientation, thread the HANDLE ASSEMBLY onto the TRIM CONNECTOR making sure the O-RING is between the escutcheon and TRIM PLATE. Note: The escutcheon is used to tighten handle assembly. Figure 5
