Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or experienced maintenance technician. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling the valve or faucet. Inspect the valve seat for wear or damage before installing the new washer, as a damaged seat will cause premature washer failure. Follow applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC for any repair involving potable water supply lines.
