Fontana Dax Champagne Round Rain Shower Head FAQ
1.75 GPM Validation, MasterClean Nozzle Service & Swivel Positioning
This Champagne round shower head combines a 9.875-inch metal spray
face, single-function 1.75 GPM rainfall delivery, MasterClean
easy-service nozzles, an adjustable swivel joint, and a standard
1/2-inch NPT connection for wall- or ceiling-arm installations.
How should the 1/2-inch NPT shower branch be prepared before installation?
Flush the open shower-arm branch until solder particles, pipe
scale, construction debris, and excess sealing compound are fully
discharged. Inspect the male threads and confirm that the arm is
rigidly supported before attaching the finished shower head.
How should the Champagne fixture be tightened without loading the swivel assembly?
Apply approved thread sealant sparingly and tighten through the
inlet connection rather than gripping the finished spray-face
body. Complete the watertight threaded joint first, then use the
swivel independently to establish the required spray angle.
How should the specified 1.75 GPM discharge be verified on site?
Stabilize the system at normal dynamic pressure, purge trapped air,
and perform a timed volumetric collection test. Low delivery may
indicate branch pressure loss, an undersized supply, residual
debris, mineral loading, or restriction within the flow passage.
What confirms correct commissioning of the MasterClean nozzle field?
Confirm uniform rainfall discharge across the complete 9.875-inch
spray face without inactive outlets, weak perimeter zones,
pulsing, or directional jetting. Restricted nozzles should be
gently wiped and retested after additional branch flushing.
