Fontana Shower Mixer Installation
Coordinate the Shower Mixer and Valve Rough-In
Plan supply connections, valve depth, outlet routing, trim alignment and access before closing the shower wall.
How is the correct shower-mixer rough-in depth established?

What should be checked before connecting shower outlets?
Confirm port functions, flow direction, diverter operation and which outlets are intended to run independently or simultaneously.
Why is solid valve support important?
Secure support helps keep the valve at the specified depth and prevents movement that can compromise trim alignment or connected piping.
What testing is needed before tiling?
Flush the lines, pressure-test all concealed connections and verify valve and diverter operation according to the product instructions and applicable codes.
