Install the Valve (cont.)
Use thread sealant and connect the 1/2
″
hot and cold water
supply lines to the valve inlet ports. The inlet ports are marked
″
HOT
″
and
″
COLD
″
so make certain that the corresponding water
supply lines are connected to the correct inlet ports.
For K-401 and K-404 valves, make certain that the integral
volume control/shut-off valve portion of the assembly is on top
when installed.
Connect the water outlet lines to the valve ports. Install a 1/2
″
plug in any unused outlet port.
IMPORTANT!
Secure the piping to the framing.
Use the plaster guard to determine the depth of the valve in the
wall, and to trace the cut-out line in the wall material. The
finished wall must be within the MIN.-MAX. depth shown on the
plaster guard.
Provide a 3-1/2
″
(8.9 cm) to 3-3/4
″
(9.5 cm) diameter hole in the
rough wall for the plaster guard.
Route the 3/4
″
mixed water supply line to the transfer valve
location.
Apply thread sealant to the inlet port threads and connect the
water supply to the transfer valve inlet.
