The piping must be properly ushed prior to installa-
tion. Turn off water supply.
Measure the distance from tile surface to NPT el-
bow (connector inside the wall). If the measurement
equals or is less than 1½” continue to step 1.
If it is more than 1½” install the brass nipple between
the connector and the elbow. Add PTFE tape to both
threads.
1. Add thread seal tape (plumber’s tape) to the
threads of the connector.
2. Make sure the shower pipe tting is clean of dirt.
Screw the connector into the shower outlet. Con-
trol the alignment (threads down).
3. Attach the shower column to the connector.
4. Attach the diverter to the shower column.
5. Attach the double-sided tape (A) to the mounting
plate (B). Place the wall mount to the peg behind
the diverter (C).
6. Set the shower column straight using a level.
Mark the placement for the wall mount to the
wall. (Go to step 7 if using screws.) Clean the wall
area behind the diverter to secure a solid con-
nection. Remove the liner from the double-sided
adhesive (5.A). Firmly press the mount to the
marked spot on the wall for 30 seconds.
7. Mounting with screws (optional): Mark the loca-
tion of the screws. Drill holes. Add screw anchors
and silicone to the holes. Attach the wall mount.
8. Screw in the ange.
9. Adjust the wall mount to ensure the shower col-
umn stands parallel to the wall and tighten the 2
set screws.
10. Attach the upper pipe into the connector.
11. Fasten the set screw under the pipe.
12. Ensure the gasket (D) is correctly in place and
attach the shower plate. Wash your hands or use
gloves to avoid getting grease on the head and
nozzles.
13. Attach the handheld shower. Notice the orienta-
tion of the hose (hex end to diverter, conic end to
handheld)
Open water supply and ensure there are no leakages.

Cleaning Instructions
Wipe off excess water from the bathroom after
every use to reduce soap scum and keep water
spots from appearing.
1. Wipe down the shower set & valve trim with a
soft dry towel.
2. Dry the oor and other at surfaces with a
squeegee.
3. If you have an extractor fan, use it!
4. If a showerhead nozzle gets blocked with lime,
you can rub it off with your nger while in the
shower.
NOTE! Only use a mild detergent to clean the
shower. Never use products that contain abrasives,
strong acids, ammonia, or chlorine, as these can
damage the coatings.
Cleaning a Shower Head
If the water streams from the nozzles are uneven,
get skewed, or clogged, rst rub the nozzles with
your nger or use a soft toothbrush. Wash your
hands rst to keep grease off the nozzles or do
it while in the shower and gently rub the nozzles
preferably with your nger’s knuckle side (to avoid
grease). This releases mineral deposits from the
nozzle and allows water to ow freely. Do this easy
maintenance as soon as possible and you’ll prevent
bigger problems in the long run.
That should be enough for most but if there’s a lot
of buildup, you can use a mild vinegar solution to
dissolve the lime off. Mix white vinegar to water
approximately at 1:5 and soak the head in the
solution. Let it sit for 1-2 hours and thoroughly rinse
with water.
Cleaning a Shower Set or a Valve Trim
To keep soap scum and water spots from appearing,
wipe down the shower with a soft dry towel after
use. When you need to clean the shower, select
a PH-neutral detergent and use a soft cloth or
sponge. Apply detergent straight to the cloth and
wipe the surfaces. Rinse with plenty of tepid water.
Finally, dry the pipes and ttings by wiping them
with a dry, soft cloth. This ensures no marks remain
and prevents water spots from appearing.
Aention! Only use a mild detergent. Never use
products that contain abrasives, strong acids,
ammonia, or chlorine, as these can damage the
coatings.
