Assembly of Outlet Connections
There are 3 outlets of the transfer valve, providing 3 separate, discrete functions.
Suggested outlet designations are as follows:
• Outlet #1: Showerhead
• Outlet #2: Handshower (45° from the left of Outlet #1)
• Outlet #3: Un-used
• Outlet #4: Tub Spout, Additional Showerhead, or Handshower (90° from the
left of Outlet #1)
NOTE: Do not block any outlet. If any outlets are not to be used (i.e. tub spout), the outlet should
be plumbed into the line of one of the other outlets. This valve is not intended to be used as
a shut-off valve. Damage to the shower system may result if the valve is used as a shut-off
valve. To prevent the potential of cross flow, check valves must be integral to the supply
valve or installed in both hot and cold water supply lines.
Rough-in Body Casting
1. The distance from the supply valve center to the center of the transfer valve must be a minimum of 12"
FINISHED
2. In the finished wall, make a minimum hole of 2-3/4" (70mm) diameter for the transfer valve installation.

5. With the valve castings "IN" port facing
directly down, connect the outlet of the
main supply valve to the inlet of the
transfer valve using a 1/2" copper water
tube. If the supply valve has 2 outlets, one
of these outlets must be plugged.
CAUTION:
For CC (copper to copper) installations,
the cartridge must be removed from the
valve body before heating the valve.
Failure to do so will result in cartridge
damage. Please refer to the instructions
'Removing Cartridge for CC Connection/
Servicing.'

plaster ground should be flush with the finished wall once the transfer valve is installed. The inlet of the
transfer valve may not be aligned with the outlet of the shower valve. For example, the transfer valve

Installing Cartridge Into Transfer Valve Body
1. Place the cartridge into the transfer valve body, positioning the 2 locating pins
on the bottom of the cartridge (Figure 1) into the 2 locating holes in the
transfer valve body (Figure 2). Assure (a) the locating key on the top of the
cartridge is facing upwards away from the inlet, and (b) that the stem flats
