100% Silicone Sealant Sealant Tape Strap Wrench
Important Information
Follow all local plumbing and building
codes.
Shut off the water supply.
NOTICE: Choose an automatic
compensating valve with the appropriate
minimum flow rating, to assure your
valve will provide safety at the lowest
flow rates. For a showerhead with a
maximum flow rate of 1.75 gal/min (6.6
l/min), use with an automatic
compensating valve rated 1.5 gal/min
(5.7 l/min) or less.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
Before using your shower, verify your
new showerhead is compatible with
your shower valve (located behind the
wall) by performing the following steps:
• While standing outside the shower,
turn on the shower valve. Do not step
into the shower.
• Adjust the water to your typical
showering temperature.
• Have someone flush the nearest toilet.
• With your hand, carefully check the
water temperature, from the
showerhead while the toilet is refilling.
• If the water becomes significantly
hotter, you will need to either replace
the shower valve with a compatible
KALLISTA valve or return your
showerhead.
CAUTION: Risk of scalding.
KALLISTA low-flow showerheads
are designed for use with compatible
KALLISTA valves. When installing a
low-flow product to an existing
showering system, verify compatibility
before showering. Do not use this
KALLISTA low-flow product with a
shower valve that allows the water
temperature to become too hot when
other plumbing products are used.
CAUTION: Risk of product
damage.
To avoid plugging the showerhead
spray outlets, use thread sealant tape
on the shower arm threads. Do not use
thread sealant compound (pipe dope).
Record your model number.
5Use a clean strap wrench to secure
the showerhead to the arm.
4Apply 100% silicone sealant around
the wall plate. Apply sealant tape to
the arm.
3Slide the plate against the wall. Run
water to flush debris.
2Install the arm. Tighten with a clean
strap wrench.
1Slide the wall plate onto the shower
arm. Apply sealant tape.
