1. Shut off water supply to valve.
2. Remove handle (VT-112) by loosening
handle screw and pull off handle.
Unscrew dome cover (SC-13), lift off
indicator (VT-104) gently with thin screw
driver in slot so as not to break snaps.
Unscrew two escutcheon screws and
remove escutcheon assembly by sliding
toward you being careful not to damage
thermometer tube. Place escutcheon
face down on soft surface to prevent
damage.
3. Open valve to about warm position
and unscrew cap (SC-2).
WARNING:
FAILURE TO OPEN VALVE WILL
DAMAGE CAP AND SPINDLE.
Spindle
assembly (C-5) will be removed with cap.
Leave packing nut (SC-7) in place while
unscrewing cap to avoid distortion.
4. Ordinary service to eliminate dripping
or not shutting off requires only the
replacement of parts supplied in washer
and gasket kit (KIT-B-VT). Hold spindle
with valve handle (VT-112) while
removing hot washer screw (SC-10A)
and cold washer retainer (SC-9) (remove
retainer with channel lock pliers).
Replace washers reversing step 4.
5. Inspect surfaces of renewable seat (SC-3)
and replace if necessary. Clean seat
surfaces for proper sealing of top seat
o-ring (SC-20A) and bottom seat gasket
(SC-21). Use renewable seat socket
wrench (C-50). Tighten seat to 15 foot
pounds of torque.
6. The perforated end of the (C-5) spindle
assembly houses the balancing piston
which is the heart of this pressure
balancing valve. The piston should
be free to move back and forth and
should click when the spindle assembly
is shaken. If deposits block this action,
tap the handle end of the spindle
against a solid object to free the piston.
Soaking in household vinegar will help
free foreign matter. If this does not free
piston, replace (C-5) spindle assembly.
DO NOT TAMPER WITH PERFORATED
CYLINDER ON THE SPINDLE ASSEMBLY
OR ATTEMPT REMOVAL OF THE PISTON.
7. Reassemble, reversing above procedure,
be sure spindle assembly is drawn close
to the cap before screwing cap back
into valve. WARNING: FAILURE TO DO
THIS WILL DAMAGE CAP AND SPINDLE.
8. USE ONLY SYMMONS GENUINE REPAIR
PARTS. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL VOID
ALL WARRANTIES AND IMPAIR PROPER
OPERATION OF YOUR VALVE.

Symmons warrants to the original purchaser that any Symmons product (excluding batteries)
when used in industrial, commercial or business use will be free of defects in material and
workmanship during normal use for a period of 5 years from the date of purchase. At our option,
we will either have you send the defective part or product prepaid to us for inspection, or we
may elect to send you the replacement part or product without investigation. A replacement for
any defective part or product, either new or refurbished (at our option), will be supplied FREE OF
CHARGE for installation by the purchaser. Defect or damage caused by the use of replacement
parts other than Symmons Genuine Replacement Parts will void this warranty. This warranty
excludes product damage due to installation error, product abuse, or product misuse whether
performed by a contractor, service company or yourself.
Damage to the chrome and/or other decorative finishes on Symmons products may be a result of
improper handling or abusive treatment. Finishes should only be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth
or sponge. Use of polish, abrasive cleaners, solvents, or acid cleaners will damage the finish and
void this warranty.
There are no other express warranties on this product and ALL WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND OTHER IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
APPLICABLE LAW. SYMMONS INDUSTRIES, INC., EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS CONTINGENT LIABILITY
AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE OF EVERY KIND. Since some states do not allow limitations on
how long an implied warranty lasts or an exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages the above limitation or exclusion may not be applicable. This warranty gives specific
legal rights. Other rights may vary from state to state.
