These guidelines have been prepared for the professional contractor to aid in the installation of:

PRESSURE BALANCE SHOWER & TUB/SHOWER SYSTEMS

(BNSV90+GUSV80R)(WWSV96+GUSV80R)(WWSV94+GUSV80R)
All dimensions are based on original specifications and are subject to change and variation.

Please consult your Design Associate for current specifications.

Installation Guidelines

1

ROUGH-IN

This valve can be used as either a combination tub/shower or as a shower valve
only. It has a built-in choke for use with a diverter tub spout. If used as a shower
valve only, cap the bottom outlet.

Check incoming water pressure; ideal operating pressure is 40 - 50 psi.,
maximum static pressure is 125 psi., minimum static pressure is 25 psi.

Install hot on left and cold on right according to valve markings.

IMPORTANT:Valve rough-in is 2

" ±

" from centerline of supplies to

face of finish wall. Install so that the line indicated on rough-in plaster shield

on valve is flush with finish wall as shown in figure 1 (lower left).

NOTE:

Pressurize and examine for leaks.

FINISH

Please refer to the specification diagram on the left and back side of this page.

Use only a protected, smooth-jawed, or strap wrench on any finished
surface.

When tile wall is finished, remove (pull off: do not turn) ENTIRE protective
rough-in plaster shield (T-26) and discard.

TURN ON hot and cold supplies: valve will not operate unless BOTH are
turned on.

Unscrew dome cover (T-19/20) and discard.Tighten packing nut (T-17) for
positive frictional resistance to handle. Check valves cap, packing nut, and all
valve, pipe and fitting connections for leaks. Set limit stop screw as directed
below.

IMPORTANT:This valve is equipped with a limit stop screw to limit the
valve handle from being turned to excessively hot water discharge
temperatures.To adjust, remove dome cover, open valve to maximum
desired temperature, and turn in limit stop screw clockwise until it seats.
Failure to adjust limit stop properly may result in serious scalding.

Screw dome cover into place over valve spindle until fully seated.

Slide face plate over dome cover and attach with screws provided. Slide the
spindle cap over the valve spindle and attach handle with screw provided.
NOTE:The B NSV94 handle screw is concealed behind the metal index.To
access this screw turn the index in a counter-clockwise motion to remove.

Prior to installing shower head/spout, allow valve to run in warm position
for a few minutes to totally flush system. If system is quite dirty, remove
valve spindle to ensure proper flushing.

If further assistance is required, please contact Product Support at:
1-800-927-2120 (8am-7pm EST).

OPERATION OF VALVE:

The main handle of the valve is for control of temperature only, not
volume. From the OFF position, the handle is turned counterclockwise
through a minimum cold position, through a warm and hot position for a
maximum turn of approximately one revolution.This allows for infinite
temperature adjustments to suit the requirements of any user.

WARNING: FAILURE TO ADJUST THE LIMIT STOP SCREW PROPERLY
MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS SCALDING.

If further assistance is required, please contact Product Support at 1-800-
927-2120 (8am-7pm EST).
