4. Complete the Valve Installation
NOTE:
This section applies to all valve installation styles.
IMPORTANT! For bath-only or shower-only installations:
Remove
and discard the aspirator. Apply thread sealant to a plug and install
it into the yoke in place of the shower or bath piping.
IMPORTANT!
Use thread sealant on all threaded connections.
Plumb using 1/2
″
copper tubing, elbows, and adapters.
Secure the bath and/or shower piping to the support framing and
install temporary nipples.
If a slip-fit spout will be installed, the temporary nipple should
extend at least 6
″
(15.2 cm) beyond the finished wall.
If the valve and aspirator were removed for soldering, reinstall
them.
Install caps on the temporary nipples.
Turn on the hot and cold water supplies, and check for leaks.
Turn the valve off.
