Installation Guide

Several U.S. state and local municipal plumbing codes require
the use of a backflow prevention device when installing a hand shower.
This device is termed a vacuum breaker. If your hand shower includes
a vacuum breaker it will be located in the hose, and the hose end
with the vacuum breaker will include a sticker that reads “attach this
vacuum breaker end to shower bracket.” If the hose is not installed in
this manner, water will not flow.
Type A or B Bracket:
1 Tighten pivot ball to pipe. Slightly
loosen large nut on bracket assembly
and position hose connection
downward. Ensure large nut is
secure by hand tightening.
2 Type A or B Bracket:
If your hose has a ridged connector,
connect the ridged connector to the
bracket and hand tighten. (See note
below).
3 Type A: Connect other end of hose
to hand-held shower head and hand
tighten.
Type B: Connect the other end with
the rubber ring to the hand-held
shower head and hand-tighten.
4 Place hand-held shower head in
bracket.
Type C Bracket:
1 Tighten metal nut to pipe using
necessary tools. Do not over tighten.
2 Connect the ridged end of the hose to
the bracket and hand tighten.
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
• Remove old shower head and remove all pipe tape as well.
• Insure that the washer from the old shower is not connected to the
pipe. Use a thin utensil to check inside the pipe for washers, such as
a pencil or screw driver. Do not use your fingers.
• Gather the tools necessary to install your new shower head.
