unfamiliar with installing plumbing fixtures. Signature
Hardware accepts no liability for any damage to the
plumbing, floor, walls, tub, or for personal injury during
installation.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Unpack and inspect the faucet for shipping damage. If
any damage is found, contact our Customer Relations
team at 1-866-855-2284.
Ensure that you have gathered all the required
materials that are needed for the installation.
For these instructions, it is assumed that the floor has
been finished and the water supply has been
prepared.

seconds to remove any dust or loose sediment within
the water lines. Check for any leaks, and that hot and
cold water are running appropriately. Divert the water
to the hand shower and allow the water to flow
through the hose for approximately 60 seconds.
