6. ALLOW VALVE TO RUN IN WARM POSI-
TION FOR A FEW MINUTES TO TOTALLY
FLUSH SYSTEM. IF SYSTEM IS QUITE
DIRTY, REMOVE VALVE SPINDLE OR STOP
SPINDLES (IF SO EQUIPPED) TO INSURE
PROPER FLUSHING. See service instruc-
tions.
7. Assemble diverter (T-139) and escutch-
eon (T-131) by installing diverter into "U"
notch located on escutcheon. Diverter
will be retained in "U" notch by integral
tabs (Models A and B only).
8. Install escutcheon on valve making sure
diverter/volume shaft (A) aligns with
mating key slot in top of diverter/volume
spindle (B) (Models A and B only).
A.
B.
Push assembled escutcheon against wall
and secure to valve with two escutcheon
screws (T3-28). Snap Dial (T-130A, T-130B,
or T-132) into escutcheon slots provided.
Mount temperature control handle on
valve spindle spline as shown in figure 9.
Install shower arm, flange and shower
head. See Figures 2 and 3.
9. Do not install positive shut-off devices
on the outlet of this valve or devices that
do not allow the valve to flow at least 1
GPM at 50 psi inlet pressure. EXCEPTION:
If a self-closing or slow-closing valve is
installed on the outlet, the supplies of the
valve must be equipped with checks to
eliminate hot to cold by-pass in the event
the valve' s handle is not turned to off after
use. Contact your factory representative
or Symmons directly for information on
available checks.
FIBERGLASS WALL INSTALLATION
When installing Allura
®
in fiberglass or
panel walls and it is desired to sandwich
wall between valve body and escutch-
eon, cut hole in wall as shown in Figure
5 and mount valve with
T-177 wall mounting flange from rear.
Note: It is always recommended
to secure valve piping to rough
construction and not depend on
fiberglass wall for valve mounting
security. On panel walls over 1" thick,
install in conventional manner.
