4.2 Passaggi di installazione
- Chiudere l'erogazione idrica: Locate the main water shut-off valve for your home or the specific bathroom and turn it off.
- Prepare Existing Plumbing: If replacing an old trim, remove all existing components. Clean the wall area around the valve and pipes.
- Installare il braccio e la flangia della doccia: Apply plumber's tape to the threaded end of the shower arm. Thread the shower arm into the shower pipe in the wall. Hand-tighten, then tighten with a wrench until secure. Slide the shower arm flange against the wall.
- Fissare il soffione della doccia: Thread the shower head onto the shower arm. Hand-tighten, then use a wrench to snug it up, being careful not to overtighten.
- Installare il beccuccio della vasca: Depending on your tub spout type (slip-on or threaded), either slide it onto the copper pipe and secure the set screw, or thread it directly onto the pipe. Ensure it is flush against the wall.
- Installare la piastra di protezione: Position the escutcheon plate over the valve body, ensuring it is centered and flush against the wall. Secure it with the provided screws.
- Installa maniglia: Attach the handle to the valve stem according to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific valve body (not included in this trim package). Secure with the set screw.
- Sigillare le fessure: Apply a bead of silicone sealant around the shower arm flange, tub spout, and escutcheon plate where they meet the wall to prevent water penetration.
- Attivare l'approvvigionamento idrico: Slowly turn the main water supply back on and check for leaks at all connections.
