Installation Considerations
This showerpipe requires showerpipe
rough 16181181
(not included).
• For best results, Hansgrohe recommends that
this unit be installed by a licensed, professional
plumber.
• Please read over these instructions thoroughly
before beginning installation. Make sure that
you have all tools and supplies needed to
complete the installation.
• The installer must ensure that the entire area of
the wall to which the mounting plate is to be
mounted, is flat (no protruding grout joints or
tiles). He should also make sure that the wall is
strong enough to support the showerpipe.
• The enclosed screws and anchors are suitable
for a solid surface wall. If installing in a fiberglass
or acrylic shower unit, install header boards at
the mounting points.
• This showerpipe is for use with shower heads
rated at 1.7 GPM (6.4 l/min) or higher.
• To prevent scald injury, the maximum output
temperature of the shower valve must be no
higher than 120°F. In Massachusetts, the
maximum output temperature can be no higher
than 112°F.
• The mixer is equipped with check valves. The
check valves must be checked regularly (at least
once a year) to insure reliable service of the
mixer and to protect the drinking water supply
from backflow. If the check valves are dirty or
worn, they must be replaced.
• Keep this booklet and the receipt (or other proof
of date and place of purchase) for this product in
a safe place. The receipt is required should it be
necessary to request warranty parts.
