Install the Supply Pipework - Single Supply
1. Install the water supply pipes.
2. Use the soldering template to construct a pressure balancing loop, this will
ensure correct alignment with the product.
Note! The loop pack is made from stronger pipe to give the pipework rigidity.
It is not standard copper pipe.
3. Assemble the pressure balancing loop with a tee positioned over each of the
four raised locations on the soldering template.
4. If necessary, make each G½” tee fit snug to the soldering template by slightly
bending one tab on the template outward. Bend the same tab at each tee
position.
5. Repeat with the same relative tab on the remaining three nipple locations.
Note! The face of the G½” nipple must fit flush to the surface of the template.
6. Solder the assembly whilst it is still attached to the soldering template.
7.
Remove the pressure balancing loop from the soldering template.
8. After allowing the pressure balancing loop to cool, assemble the G 1/2” male
thread adapter with flow control to the loop.
9. Connect the pressure balancing loop to the water supply.
10. Temporarily install a nipple to each tee. Do not use any sealant.
