Shower Panels - 3
Different
Installation Methods

1. Quick Installation
(Easiest Way):
a. Measure and attach 2
brackets onto wall. make
sure the hose will reach
the shower pipe from
your mounting location.
Included anchors are for
tile surface. Be sure to
use a masonry or ceramic
drill bit. Fiberglass
enclosures will need a
different "toggle style"
adapter to attach the
brackets. Be sure to
silicone around the
bracket if attaching to
fiberglass.
b. Notch the side of the
unit where the hose
exits. Depending on the
material of the shower
panel construction,
different tools can be
used for this purpose.
c. Using an assistant,
attach the shower panel
to the shower pipe, and
hang the panel onto the
2 brackets, making sure
it is "locked" into
place by pulling
downward onto it, and
moving side to side to
make certain it is
affixed onto the
brackets.
d. Although this is the
easiest way, you may
notice the pressure is
not strong enough to run
all the showerheads
simultaneously. This is
because both the hot and
cold feed run through a
single hose before being
distributed to the
showerheads. (You may
want to test the
pressure with an
assistant before
attaching the unit to
the wall this way)
2. Remodel (Best Way)
a. On the back of the
shower panel, remove the
"T" connector that
connect the hot and cold
water lines along with
the input hose.
-
Shut off the water
at the main using a
curb key.
-
Close the valves at
the water heater (figure
A).
-
Next, turn off the
power to the water
heater.
-
Open the hot and
cold at the bathroom
faucet to relieve
the pressure in the
lines.
-
Then, open the valve
(figure B) to
let the remaining
water out.
-
Remove the shower
arm using slip-joint
pliers to loosen it
first.
-
Remove any parts you
can from the valve
body (figure C).
-
Use a hacksaw to cut
the water line where
you can leave as
much copper pipe as
possible above the
valve body (figure
D), then cut
either the hot or
cold line.
-
Using slip-joint
pliers, unscrew the
old valve (figure
E) off the male
adapter and remove.
Prepping the Pipes
-
Install a
compression fitting
(figure A) to
replace the adapter
that was just
removed from the hot
or cold line.
-
Apply Teflon paste
to the threads on
the end of the cold
and hot water line (figure
B).
-
Hand tighten the
factory provided
female adapters to
the threads (figure
C), then tighten
down with pliers.
Hanging the Body
Shower:
-
Before installing
the anchors, place a
piece of painters
tape over the spot
where you'll be
drilling the hole.
This helps prevent
damage to the tile.
-
Using your drill
with a tile bit,
drill the hole into
the tile.
-
Apply silicone caulk
to the anchor for a
good seal. Follow
the manufacturers
instructions when
installing anchors.
-
Place the anchor
into the hole, then
set the screw.
Mounting the Body
Shower
-
Attach the stainless
steel water line to
the adapters (figure
A) installed
earlier, then
tighten with pliers.
-
Mount the body
shower by lining up
the bolts over the
keyholes on the back
of the unit (figure
B). Start with
the top and work
your way to the
bottom.
-
Tighten the nut onto
the shower bolt
located on the
bottom of the body
shower (figure C),
then tighten with
pliers.
-
Install the two side
screws using a
Phillips
screwdriver.
-
Next, install the
side panels (figure
D).
-
Place the shower arm
into the holder,
then attach the hose
to the male adapter
on the unit.
-
Connect the water
lines to the female
adapter on the back
of the cover plate (figure
E).
-
Put the cover plate
on, then snap on the
decorative plates
around the jets.
-
Turn on the water at
the main, then turn
on the water and
power to the water
heater.
-
Turn on the shower
and allow the water
to cycle through,
then test the
temperature to
ensure the
anti-scald valve is
working properly.
-
Finally, install the
handle and tighten
the setscrew (figure
F).

It Yourself: Ed the
Plumber
3. New Construction
or Major Remodel (Best
Way)
a.
On the back of the
shower panel, remove the
"T" connector that
connect the hot and cold
water lines along with
the input hose. Install
the hot and cold lines
at about 5' height and
4" apart with ball
valves pointing downward
for easy hose attachment
and shower panel
connection and removal
for service without
having to turn the water
off to the entire
residence.
b. attach brackets.
Remember to measure
carefully!
