Fontana Commercial Touchless Faucets™ | Architectural and Engineering Resource
Fontana FS-9564BN Commercial Brushed Nickel Touchless Automatic Sensor Sink Faucet:
Hot & Cold Mixer Installation Schematic
This hot- and cold-water mixer installation resource is intended to support
architects, plumbing engineers, contractors, installers and facility managers
coordinating the Fontana FS-9564BN commercial touchless automatic sensor sink
faucet. The drawing package communicates the relationship between the G1/2 hot-
and cold-water angle stops, braided supply hoses, hot/cold mixer valve, mixed-water
outlet, faucet inlet, control box, power source and under-counter service layout.
Fontana FS-9564BN Hot & Cold Mixer Touchless Faucet Installation
The FS-9564BN can be configured with separate hot- and cold-water supplies
feeding a mixer valve beneath the countertop. The mixer combines both supplies
and delivers blended water to the faucet while the control box manages the
touchless sensor system and selected power source.

Required Hot & Cold Mixer Installation Drawing Package
Each drawing should use a consistent component identification system and clearly
distinguish the hot-water path, cold-water path, mixed-water outlet and electrical
control connections. The package should identify the G1/2 angle stops, supply hoses,
mixer-valve inlets, mixed-water outlet, faucet inlet, control box, power source and
service-access requirements needed for plumbing and installation coordination.
Hot & Cold Mixer Installation Overview
Shows the complete under-counter relationship between the faucet, hot and cold angle stops, mixer valve, mixed-water outlet, control box and power source. This view provides the primary coordination reference for installation planning.
Mixer Valve Detail
Illustrates the mixer valve in top view with dedicated G1/2 hot and cold inlets and a central mixed-water outlet routed to the faucet. Correct inlet orientation is essential for predictable operation.
Hot-Water Supply
Identifies the G1/2 hot-water angle stop and braided supply hose feeding the mixer-valve hot inlet. The shutoff should remain accessible for isolation and future service.
Cold-Water Supply
Identifies the G1/2 cold-water angle stop and braided supply hose feeding the mixer-valve cold inlet. Route the line without kinks, compression or interference with cabinet hardware.
Mixed-Water Outlet
Shows the mixer-valve outlet connected to the faucet inlet. The blended-water hose should remain secure, accessible and free from sharp bends or unnecessary tension.
Control Box
Shows the electronic control enclosure used by the touchless faucet system. Mount it to a stable cabinet surface where wiring, connectors and service points remain accessible.
Power Source
Coordinates the illustrated AC-adapter or battery-pack option with the control box. Keep electrical connections dry and positioned away from likely leak paths.
Recommended Installation Sequence
Install hot and cold angle stops, connect both supplies to the mixer valve, connect the mixed-water outlet to the faucet, mount and power the control box, secure all hoses and cables, then restore water and test.
Leak & Temperature Verification
After installation, inspect all hose and valve connections under pressure and verify the delivered mixed-water temperature is appropriate for the intended application.
Engineering note: The mixer installation schematic is a coordination reference and should not be scaled. Verify G1/2 connection compatibility, mixer-valve suitability, supply temperatures and pressures, hose routing, power requirements and service access against the current FontanaShowers installation instructions and approved project submittal before installation.
Architectural, Plumbing and Electrical Coordination Considerations
Hot & Cold Isolation
Provide accessible G1/2 angle stops on both supplies so each water source can be isolated independently for installation and maintenance.
Mixer-Valve Orientation
Confirm the hot, cold and mixed-water ports are connected in the correct orientation before pressurizing the system.
Hose Routing
Keep braided hoses clear of sharp cabinet edges, drain piping and moving hardware while maintaining smooth bend radii.
Power Coordination
Coordinate the AC-adapter or battery-pack option with the project electrical strategy and keep all connectors protected from moisture.
Service Access
Maintain sufficient cabinet clearance to reach both angle stops, the mixer valve, control box, power source and all hose connections.
Commissioning
After restoring the water supplies, verify leak-free connections, proper sensor operation and an acceptable mixed-water temperature at the outlet.

Professional Engineering and Accessibility References
Project verification:
Hot- and cold-water mixer installation schematics are coordination tools and do
not replace approved project submittals. The architect, plumbing engineer,
electrical engineer, contractor and qualified installer should verify angle-stop
locations, G1/2 connection compatibility, mixer-valve orientation, hose routing,
supply temperatures and pressures, power-source requirements, service access,
accessibility criteria and locally adopted codes before installation.
