WARRANTY
Your new Shower/Bath Valve is designed for years
of trouble-free performance. Keep it looking new by
cleaning it periodically with a soft cloth. The use of
harsh chemicals and abrasives on any of the
Speakman custom finish products may damage the
finish and void the product warranty. Please be sure
to only use approved cleaners. Please contact
Speakman for any clarification of acceptable
cleaners.
This type of valve must be cleaned and maintained
on a regular basis. Periodic maintenance should be
performed at least every 12 months or after any
changes have been made to the building’s plumbing
system. Valves that are installed outdoors should be
winterized by removing all of the internal parts and
removing any standing water from the valve.
Quarterly the maximum hot temperature setting (TLS)
should be checked and adjusted accordingly.
MAINTENANCE
Cover your drain to prevent loss of parts. Be sure to
wear eye protection while cutting pipe.
SAFETY TIPS
IMPORTANT
• Be sure to read instructions thoroughly before
beginning installation.
• Be sure to have properly adjusted the Temperature
Limiting Stop (TLS) as outlined in this Installation
Manual.
• Inspect all connections after installation of valve.
• This valve has an operating range of 20-80 Psi.
• This valve is designed to be used in conjunction
with a shower head rated at 1.75 gpm (6.6 L/min)
or higher flow rate.
•NOTE: This installation manual covers several
models of valves. While the appearance of your
valve may differ from those shown, the installation
method is the same.
•Maximum water pressure: 125 psi static; minimum
water pressure: 20 psi flowing; minimum cold
supply temperature: 40 °F; maximum hot supply
temperature: 160 °F;

• Mounting location must be capable of supporting
the product in use.
CAUTION: When outdoor temperature
rises above 90 degrees, use caution to
prevent scalding from water stored within
the unit. It is recommended to flush the unit
by turning it on for 30 seconds before
entering the shower water. This will avoid
accidental scalding by the user and ensure
safe use of the shower unit.
1Install the HOT and COLD supply lines for the
Valve, either through the wall, from the ceiling,
or from the floor. For ceiling and floor mounts,
hold 1” from finished wall to center of supply
lines. See rough-in diagram on last page.

3If the components in Step 2 did not stay
together, insert the Union Adapter (2) into the
Union Nut (1), followed by the Union Washer(3).
After applying Thread Seal Tape to the Union
Adapter, thread the assembly into the COLD
Inlet. Tighten with a 1/2” Allen Wrench. Repeat
for HOT Inlet.

5Slide the Strap (1) onto the Shower Arm (2).
6Apply Thread Seal Tape to both ends of Shower
Arm Gooseneck, and Bottom Plug. Thread
Shower Arm Gooseneck into Valve Body being
sure to properly align outlet. Install Plug into
bottom port of Valve Body and wrench tighten.
7Insert the Valve Assembly between the installed
Union Stop Bodies. Thread Union Nuts onto Valve
Body and wrench tighten, being sure Shower
Arm Gooseneck is in a true vertical position.
Turn "ON" water supply and check for leaks.
See Service Instructions for turning
"ON"/"OFF"water supply.
8Mounting location is optional. Verify that the
mounting location and structure is capable of
supporting the product in use.
Mark location of mounting holes for Shower Arm
Strap (1) referencing the rough-in diagram
contained in this document.
Install Shower Arm Strap (1) to upper pipe using
Supplied Screws. In drywall or tile applications,
be sure to use appropriate hardware.

HANDLE AND DIAL CAP REMOVAL
9
3/32"
The Handle and Dial Cap must be removed to adjust the Temperature Limit Stop. Remove the Handle Screw (1), then slide the Handle (2) off. Remove the Dial Cap Screw (3) followed by sliding off the Dial Cap (4).
If you are performing a
Standard Installation,
please proceed to
STEP 12.
If you are performing a
Back-to-Back
Installation, please
proceed to STEP 10.
10 BACK-TO-BACK INSTALLATION
Your Shower Valve has the ability to be mounted back-to-back with another Valve in a shared space. This means the HOT
and COLD inlets may be reversed. Please see the following steps to adapt your valve for back-to-back mounting or
reversed inlet supplies.
If the HOT and COLD water supplies are reversed (HOT on right and COLD on left), disassemble Valve Cartridge as
outlined in STEP 11.
NOTE: Never install the valve body upside down!

VALVE CARTRIDGE ADJUSTMENT/RE-INSTALLATION11
Ensure that the water supplies are turned "OFF". Adjust the Cartridge Assembly by following the
steps below.
• Gently remove the Retaining Clip ❶and TLS Plate ❷and keep them aside for later use.
• Using a Phillips Head Screwdriver, remove the four (x4) Bonnet Screws ❸.
• Pull out the Cartridge assembly from the Valve Body.
• Using a Flat Tip Screwdriver, separate the Bonnet ❹from the Cartridge Housing ❻by gently
prying between the Flange of the Bonnet ❹and Cartridge Housing ❻to release the engagement.
• Pull out the Cartridge ❺from the Housing ❻.
• Rotate the Cartridge ❺180º so the "H" is now present at the 3 o'clock position.
• Insert the Cartridge ❺into the Cartridge Housing ❻.
• Position the Bonnet ❹over the Cartridge ❺and snap the Bonnet ❹into the Cartridge Housing
❻while aligning the tabs and slots accordingly.
• Reinstall the Cartridge Assembly into the Valve Body while ensuring the Large O-Ring ❼is
properly seated.
• Secure the Cartridge Assembly with the four (x4) Bonnet Screws ❸.
• See STEP 12 for TLS Adjustment and re-installation of the TLS Plate ❷and Retaining Clip ❶.

TEMPERATURE LIMIT ADJUSTMENT12
The maximum outlet temperature setting adjustment
(Temperature Limit Stop (TLS)) of the Valve has been
factory set at 110° F. To adjust the limit of the maximum
outlet temperature the Valve delivers, adjust the Valve’s
temperature limit stop (TLS) Plate.
• Slip the Retaining Clip away from the Spindle and the
TLS Plate towards the end of the Spindle.
• With the water supplies “On”, rotate the Valve
Spindle clockwise to the maximum desired outlet
temperature.
• Position the TLS Plate so it contacts the Lug on the
Bonnet and therefore restricts the clockwise rotation of
the Spindle.
• Slip the Retaining Clip back into the groove of the
Spindle to hold the TLS plate in place.
• Rotate the Spindle counter-clockwise to the “Off”
position.

NOTE: A thermometer can be held at the Valve outlet to aid in either checking the existing factory setting
or reaching the desired outlet temperature.
