Preparation for Installation
Install 1/2” IPS nipples for the hot and cold
water supplies at the locations shown on
the diagram. The nipples should extend
5/8” outside the surface of the finish wall.
For proper operation of the unit, the hot
supply should be on the left, and the cold
supply should be on the right.
Install the wall surface material. Make sure
that the wall is watertight before installing
the panel.
Seal the wall around the nipples with
waterproof sealant.

Installation
Wrap the nipples with several layers of Teflon tape.
Install the elbows included with the panel. The outlets should point
downwards. The elbow should extend no more than 1 1/4” from
the surface of the finished wall.
With a helper holding the panel in
place, mark the positions of the screw
holes.
Set the panel aside, securely supported
to prevent damage.

Drill the screw holes with a 6 mm
bit suitable for the wall surface.
Install the anchors. Seal the wall
around the anchors with water-
proof sealant.
