Hot and cold water enter respective ports in the valve and mix
in a chamber containing an advanced thermal actuator (refer to
cutaway view). This actuator controls the position of the plunger
and temperature.
Rotating the adjustment handle repositions the plunger in the
cartridge assembly to produce the desired temperature. The
mixed water passes over the shut-off disc to the outlet. If the
hot or cold supply water temperature or pressure changes, the
thermal actuator will contract or expand. This movement reposi-
tions the plunger to maintain the desired temperature. With the
adjustment handle in full clockwise (OFF) position, the shut-off
disc closes the mixing chamber from the outlet.
A high temperature limit stop restricts the movement of the
control handle. All HydroGuard T/P e700 valves are factory set
to deliver tempered water up to 110°F [43°C] with equal supply
pressures, with hot water temperature 140°F [60°C], cold water
temperature 60°F [15.6°C].
The handle rotation stop must be adjusted by the installer.
EVERY 12 MONTHS:
• Open up the checkstops and check for free movement of the
poppet. To access the checkstops, remove the handle assem-
bly and trim plate.
• Before servicing the valve, turn off the water supply upstream
OR close the checkstops. To close the checkstops, turn the
adjustment screw fully clockwise on each checkstop.
• Remove the valve bonnet and rinse all grit and impurities from
the cartridges.
• Winterize valves that are used outdoors. Remove and store
the internal components and drain all water from the valve.
Before servicing checkstops or piping, always turn off the
upstream water supply.

Maximum Temperature Setting/Handle Rotation Stop
The handle rotation setting must be adjusted to limit the distance
the user can rotate the handle towards the full hot water posi-
tion.
Any repair or modification of the valve may affect the high tem-
perature setting. The maximum
temperature setting must be checked by the installer before use.
1. Remove the valve handle and sleeve.
2. Adjust the valve to the desired maximum outlet temperature
[110°F (43°C) max]. Screw on the high temp. limit stop until it
touches the stem shoulder.
3. Turn the stem clockwise until the water stops.
Open valve to full hot position and verify maximum outlet
temperature setting.
4. Place sleeve "O" Ring on the bonnet shoulder.
Slide sleeve over the "O" Ring until it stops.
5. Replace handle.
Reversed Inlets
Valve is factory-set for standard inlets If reversed inlets are
required due to back-to-back installation (Cold water supply on
the left and Hot water supply on the right), follow instructions a
through d below:
a. Connect cold inlet to hot port (“H”) and hot inlet to cold port
(“C”).
Do not turn valve upside down. If valve is upside down, water
will not flow properly through tub spout or showerhead.
b. Turn water off with checkstops, remove bonnet and
cartridge.
c. Reinstall cartridge. “H” on the cold side of the valve body
and “C” should be on the hot side of the valve body.
d. Reinstall bonnet with high temperature limit stop on it.
Be certain that valve opens in full cold!
e. Hot and Cold inlets should be re-identified for reversed inlets
to avoid confusion during future maintenance.
