IMPORTANT:
¾ To ensure this product is installed properly, you must
read and follow these guidelines. The owner/user of
this product must keep this information for future
reference.
¾ This product is intended to work with the Universal
Pressure Balance Valve (Style No. GUPB81). The
Universal Pressure Balance Valve controls on/off and
mixes hot and cold water. The Universal Pressure
Balance Valve can also be paired with a Universal Two
Way Diverter Valve (Style No. GUDV23) or Universal
Three Way Diverter Valve (Style No. GUDV65). All
valves sold separately.
¾ The risk of scalding exists until the installer has
properly calibrated/adjusted the temperature setting
during final trim installation.
¾ This product must be installed by a professional
licensed contractor. Be sure your installation conforms
to all federal, state, and local codes. In the State of
Massachusetts, all installations must comply with the
rules and regulations set forth within 248 CMR.
¾ This product must be on-site prior to rough-in. This
allows the installer to visualize the installation and
verify the center spread.
¾ Refer to the specification and assembly drawings
attached. Product is sold partially assembled but
shown fully disassembled for illustrative and service
purposes only.
¾ Inspect the product to ensure you have all the parts
required for proper installation. Use only a strap
wrench or protected/smooth-jaw wrench on any
finished surface.
¾ DO NOT use putty. Putty contains oil and can cause
permanent discoloration on certain materials such as
marble, granite and any porous surface.
VALVE OPERATION:
1. Turn on the hot and cold supplies then remove the
TILE GUARD and BONNET COVER as shown in
Figure - 01.
¾ NOTE: The VALVE will not operate unless both hot
and cold supplies are turned on. If the VALVE has
remained unused for an extended period of time (over
3 months) water to the VALVE should have been shut
off (via service stops or system control valve) and the
VALVE should have been opened to allow the water in
the VALVE to evaporate. This is to keep the piston in
the VALVE SPINDLE from sticking, due to stagnant or
hard water, once the VALVE is in use again. If the
piston does stick, soak the VALVE SPINDLE in house-
hold vinegar. Refer to the installation guidelines for
the VALVE which contains maintenance instructions,
complete parts breakdown and related information.

2. With the VALVE off, place the HANDLE on the VALVE
STEM in the 6 o'clock position. Turn the HANDLE
counterclockwise through the cold, warm and
stopping at the hot position. If additional rotational
friction is required to maintain the handle position,
tighten the PACKING NUT as shown in Figure - 02.
¾ NOTE: The HANDLE is for controlling temperature
only, not volume.
