TI450-M Page 2
POSITION THE HYDROPANEL II UNIT
(See Figures 1 and 2) Determine the horizontal position of the unit
according to shower room layout, and mark the centerlines. For
multiple shower applications, the recommended minimum dis-
tance between the centerline of two units is 36 inches [1914mm].
1. Determine the floor-to-showerhead height for the unit.
Recommended heights are listed below:
Men - 77” [1956mm] Youth - 66” [1676mm]
Women - 70” [1778mm] Youth - 60” [1524mm]
2. The preassembled copper tubing supply water inlet is 8-3/4”
[222mm] from the top of the shroud, and 1-1/2” [38mm] to
the right of the centerline. Connect supply piping accordingly.
Install the Piping Assembly
The valve handle assembly, piping and Hydropanel II shrouding
must be separated before mounting to wall. For #450-4004M and
#450-4005M Hydropanel II units, the handshower, hose and
showerhead base come preassembled to the shrouding. Refer to
Figure 4.
3. Remove the screws holding the faceplate to the shroud at D.
Slide the faceplate off over the valve cover.
4. Remove the two screws at E that secure the shroud to the
valve.
5. Detach the piping from the shrouding, by removing the
screw at A above the showerhead. Slide the piping out of
the shrouding; the showerhead remains attached to the
shroud.
6. For mounting the piping assembly upper bracket (B) , use
the bracket as a template and drill two small holes in the wall
at showerhead height.
7. For mounting the piping assembly lower bracket (C), use the
bracket as a template to mark mounting position, and drill 3
holes.
8. Install any mounting anchors as detailed by the individual
room specifications.
9. Secure upper piping bracket B with mounting screws (not
included).
10.Secure lower piping bracket C with mounting screws (not
included).
11.Connect the supply line to the piping assembly.
Attach the Shrouding
Do Not remove the entire chrome plated end cap from the
shrouding; it functions as an end cap and gasket for shroud
extension. Part of the end cap can be broken out to provide verti-
cal and horizontal piping clearance.
10.To remove the scored section, hit it sharply with a hammer.
11.To connect the showerhead on the shroud to the water out-
let pipe, slide the showerhead nipple on the inside of the
shroud into the piping assembly. The End Cap will slide over
the supply piping. Secure the shrouding with the screw at A.
Test the System
Before final assembly, test the Hydropanel II system. Turn on
water supply and push the metering valve button. Water
should come through the showerhead for the desired time.
When valve meters off, check all connections (showerhead,
pipe connections, valve) for leaks.
