Tools and Materials
Before You Begin
WARNING: Risk of scalding. High water temperature can
cause severe burns. Set the water temperature at or below
120°F (49°C) following the adjustment procedure in the valve
Installation and Care Guide.
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Spraying pressurized
water directly at the sprayface may cause water to leak
behind the finished wall. Do not spray pressurized water
directly into the sprayface.
IMPORTANT! There must be two or more 1.0 gpm bodysprays per
valve outlet to ensure proper operation of automatic compensating
valves.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.

Remedy Reduced Water Flow
If you are experiencing reduced water flow from your bodyspray, try
one of the following:
Clean the Spray Nozzles
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Spraying pressurized
water directly at the sprayface may cause water to leak
behind the finished wall. Do not spray pressurized water
directly into the sprayface.
While the water is running, firmly rub your finger across the
spray nozzles to dislodge any debris or mineral build-up. If this
does not improve water flow, proceed to ″Clean the Screen
Washer.″
Clean the Screen Washer
Turn the escutcheon counterclockwise to remove.
Using the waterway tool (provided), remove the waterway.
Using a socket wrench with extension and the provided 11 mm
bit (or a 7/16″socket) remove the adapter.
Using a thin-blade screwdriver, carefully pry the screen washer
from the adapter.
Gently rub the washer under running water to remove any
debris.
Reinstall the washer into the adapter.
