FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH PROPER
INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS COULD CONTRIBUTE TO
VALVE FAILURE.
This hot water master tempering valve
cannot be used for tempering water
temperature at xtures. Severe bodily injury
(i.e., scalding or chilling) and/or death
may result depending upon system water
pressure changes and/or supply water
temperature changes. ASSE standard 1016,
1069 or 1070 listed devices should be used
at xtures to prevent possible injury.
This hot water tempering valve is designed
to be installed at or near the boiler or water
heater. They are not designed to compensate
for system pressure uctuations and should
not be used where ASSE standard 1016,
1069 or 1070 devices are required. These
valves should never be used to provide
“anti-scald” or “anti-chill” service.
The components of the system must be
of materials with a construction capable
of withstanding the high limit output
temperatures of the water heating source.
Periodic inspection and yearly maintenance
by a licensed contractor is required.
Corrosive water conditions, temperatures
over 200°F, unauthorized adjustments or
repair could render the valve ineective
for service intended. Regular checking and
cleaning of the valve’s internal components
and check stops help ensure maximum life
and proper product function. Frequency of
cleaning and inspection depends upon local
water conditions.
Plumbing Installation should be in accordance with
accepted plumbing practices. Installation and eld
adjustment are the responsibility of the installer.
1. Flush all pipes thoroughly before installation.
2. Connect sink drain pipe to drain.
3. Close both hot and cold water shuto valves
upstream of the tempering valve.
4. Bleed pressure from the system.
5. Route copper tubing or piping to t valve
dimensions.
6. Remove tailpieces from the valve and make
sure union nuts are over the tubing/piping
before connecting to the tailpiece.
NOTICE
If soldering, remove unions and gaskets from
valve body prior to soldering to prevent damage
to valve from excessive heat.
7. Flush piping again, install valve using lter
gasket on hot and cold water inlets and ber
gasket on mixed water outlet.
8. Turn on the cold and hot water. If any leaks are
observed, tighten connections as necessary to
stop leaks before proceeding.
9. After the plumbing installation is complete, the
water pressure can be adjust to avoid excess
splash. The pressure can be controlled by
adjusting the ow with the ow control valve
located under face plate.
