Fontana Balsamo Gold Shower Installation
Plan the In-Wall Mixer Installation
Connect the Balsamo instructions with concealed mixer, finished-wall depth, showerhead and professional installation resources.
How should the Balsamo mixer depth be established?
Measure from the final wall surface and include waterproofing, tile and setting materials. Follow the allowable depth specified for the supplied valve.
Open Balsamo Guide
Must serviceable valve parts remain accessible?
Yes. Install the valve so its cartridge and other serviceable parts can be reached through the trim opening or specified access arrangement.
Review Mixer Installation
When should the concealed valve be tested?
Flush the supplies and pressure-test the valve and outlet connections before waterproofing or finished wall materials are installed.
