Installation:
The installation process involves several steps, starting with preparing the existing water supply.
- Shut off the water supply: Before beginning installation, ensure the old faucet and surrounding area are clean.
- Insert the welded extension tube: This tube is inserted into the bracket and then tightened.
- Install the shower column: The shower column is attached to the wall bracket connector at a 90-degree angle. If the existing water outlets are not aligned, the installation allows for adjustment. The eccentric nuts are installed into the wall water outlets, ensuring they are aligned and at the same level. The eccentric nuts should be tightened firmly.
- Connect the shower column to the eccentric nuts: The shower column is then connected to the eccentric nuts, ensuring the rubber seals are properly seated. The decorative cover is then placed over the eccentric nuts.
- Install the shower head and hand shower: The shower head is screwed onto the top of the shower column, and the hand shower is connected to its hose.
- Check for leaks: After installation, turn on the water supply and check all connections for leaks.
Operation:
The shower column allows users to easily switch between the shower head and the hand shower using a diverter. The mixing valve enables precise control over water temperature and flow, providing a customized showering experience.
Testing Connections:
- Connect the hand shower body with the hose: Ensure the shower hose is properly sealed.
- Verify no leaks: Turn on the water supply and check for leaks at all connections.
- Turn on hot and cold water: Test the mixing valve by turning on both hot and cold water for at least one minute to evacuate air trapped in the system.
- Confirm proper operation: Ensure the Uberhaus faucet is installed and ready to use.
