1. Component Layout
Verify the location of the components and the orientation of all
ports.
Determine the location and orientation of the transfer valve. The
location of the bath spout, handshower, and the optional auxiliary
shower will affect the piping and connectors needed.
Allow clearance for valve outlets, handles, bath spout, and
handshower hoses.
You can extend the distance between the transfer valve and the
braided hose connection with 1/2
″
copper piping below the rim
of the bath/whirlpool, but it may not be safe or practical. A long
run of piping will mean a long run of room-temperature standing
water when the handshower is first activated for use.
NOTE:
The distance between the transfer valve and the braided
hose connection with 1/2
″
copper piping below the rim of the
bath/whirlpool, but it may not be safe or practical. A long run of
piping will mean a long run of room-temperature standing water
when the handshower is first activated for use.
Secure long runs of piping to the underside of the deck or rim. If
the piping cannot be secured at a point near the transfer valve,
secure the piping from underneath with lumber or other suitable
support.
