IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE FOR THE CONSUMER
WARNING: Risk of scalding or other severe injury.
●
Before completing installation, the installer must set the maximum water temperature setting of this valve to
minimize the risks associated with scalding hazards according to ASTM F 444.
●
Do not install a shut-off device on either outlet of this valve. The installation of any such device may create
a cross-flow condition at the valve and affect the water temperature.
●
Factors that change the temperature of the water supplied to the valve, such as seasonal water
temperature changes, and water heater replacement or servicing, will change the maximum water
temperature supplied by the valve and may create a scalding hazard. The pressure-balanced valve will not
compensate for changes in the water supply temperature; adjust the maximum water temperature setting of
this pressure-balanced valve when such changes occur.
●
Pressure-balanced valves may not provide protection against scalding if there is a failure of other
temperature-limiting devices elsewhere in the plumbing system.
NOTICE:
Only apply silicone based lubricants to these valves. Do not use petroleum based lubricants.
Petroleum based lubricants will harm the O-rings, seals, and plastic components.
The installer is responsible for installing the valve and adjusting the maximum water temperature of
this pressure-balanced valve according to instructions.
This valve meets or exceeds ANSI A112.18.1 and ASSE 1016.
If you do not understand any of the installation or temperature adjustment instructions in this document, in the
United States please contact 1-888-4KALLISTA. Outside the U.S., please contact your distributor.
