Your new bathroom faucet is designed for years
of trouble-free performance.
Keep it looking new by cleaning it periodically with
a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, wire wool and
harsh chemicals as these will dull the finish and
void your warranty.
If you are soldering during faucet installation,
remove cartridges, seats, gaskets and washers
prior to applying flame, otherwise you will void
the warranty.
Cover drain openings to avoid losing small parts.
When cutting or soldering pipe, use safety glasses
to protect your eyes.
Correct installation may vary depending on previous faucet installation. All necessary supplies required for
faucet installation are not included, but may be found where plumbing supplies are sold. It is suggested that
IAPMO and/or CSA approved plumbing supplies are used during installation.
