Rough-In Installation Drawing Scope
The rough-in drawing should present the complete relationship between the
visible faucet, finished countertop, lavatory basin, cabinet enclosure,
water-supply connections, motorized valve, electronic controller, power
source and sensor wiring. Reference dimensions should be taken from the
finished countertop surface, faucet mounting centerline, basin centerline,
cabinet floor and nearby plumbing components. Only verified manufacturer
dimensions should be included in final construction documents.
Complete Rough-In Elevation
Shows the faucet above the finished countertop and all concealed
equipment below. The elevation should identify the lavatory basin,
mounting shank, water connections, motorized valve, controller,
power source, sensor cable and required maintenance-access zone.
Faucet Mounting Centerline
Identifies the faucet centerline in relation to the basin, backsplash
and counter edge. The outlet should discharge within the basin’s
effective capture area without contacting the basin rim or producing
excessive splash.
Single-Hole Countertop Opening
Indicates the verified faucet mounting-hole diameter and location.
The opening should be coordinated with sink cutouts, countertop seams,
undermount clips, reinforcing rails, backsplash construction and
adjacent accessory openings.
Countertop Thickness
Shows the permitted finished-deck thickness and the threaded shank
length required below the counter for the gasket, washer and retaining
nut. Additional substrate or reinforcement layers should not prevent
secure mounting.
Faucet Spout Projection
Shows the faucet outlet in relation to the basin rim and drain
centerline. Spout placement should direct the water stream into the
usable basin area while limiting splash onto the countertop or user.
Sensor Detection Zone
Identifies the adjustable infrared sensing field below the faucet
outlet. The sensing zone should remain clear of the backsplash,
basin wall, drain fitting and reflective accessories that could cause
false activation.
Under-Counter Cabinet Envelope
Defines the available cabinet width, depth and height for concealed
faucet components. The arrangement should account for the basin,
drain, trap, water supplies, shutoff valves, cabinet doors, shelves
and structural framing.
Water-Supply Stub-Outs
Shows the required water-supply connection points below the lavatory.
Supply stub-outs should remain accessible and should be positioned to
avoid sharp hose bends, tension, compression and interference with
the drain assembly.
Isolation Valve Position
Identifies accessible shutoff valves serving the faucet. The valves
should permit individual fixture isolation for commissioning,
maintenance and component replacement without shutting down unrelated
washroom fixtures.
Motorized Valve Location
Shows the electronically controlled valve installed between the water
supply and faucet inlet. The valve should be supported, protected from
impact and located where its connections remain accessible for testing
and replacement.
Controller Position
Identifies a dry and accessible mounting location for the electronic
control module. The controller should remain within the approved cable
reach of the faucet sensor, motorized valve and power supply.
AC Power-Supply Location
Where AC operation is selected, the drawing should show the approved
transformer, adapter or power connection in a dry and serviceable
location separated from plumbing joints and potential leakage points.
Battery Box Location
Where battery operation is selected, the battery enclosure should be
mounted above the cabinet floor and positioned so batteries can be
inspected and replaced without removing the basin or disconnecting
plumbing.
Electrical Receptacle Coordination
If a receptacle is required, its location should be coordinated with
the electrical drawings and locally adopted requirements. It should
not conflict with the trap, shutoff valves, cabinet shelves or
maintenance access.
Sensor Cable Route
Shows the low-voltage cable path from the faucet sensor to the
controller. The cable should be supported and kept clear of cabinet
hinges, drawer slides, sharp metal edges, water piping and removable
access panels.
Valve-Control Cable Route
Identifies the electrical connection between the controller and
motorized valve. Connectors should remain visible and reachable for
commissioning, diagnostic testing and future component replacement.
Flexible Supply-Hose Route
Shows the route between the shutoff valve, motorized valve and faucet
inlet. Hoses should follow smooth curves and should not be twisted,
kinked, stretched or pressed against the basin or cabinet structure.
Drain and Supply Separation
Coordinates the faucet components with the lavatory drain and trap.
Electronic components and wiring should not rest against drainage
piping or obstruct access to slip joints, cleanouts or shutoff valves.
Minimum Service Height
Defines the vertical clearance required to access the controller,
motorized valve, power components and faucet mounting nut. The service
zone should remain unobstructed after all plumbing and millwork are
installed.
Minimum Service Depth
Indicates the horizontal clearance needed to inspect and remove
concealed components. The cabinet should permit equipment to be
withdrawn through the normal access opening without removing the
countertop.
Front Access Zone
Shows the clear working area required in front of the controller,
valve and water connections. Cabinet doors or removable panels should
permit normal servicing without dismantling permanent millwork.
Cabinet Floor Clearance
Shows electronic components raised above the lowest cabinet level
where practical. Controllers, adapters, connectors and battery
enclosures should be protected from cleaning water, leaks and standing
moisture.
Basin Reflection Clearance
Identifies the relationship between the infrared sensor and reflective
basin surfaces. Highly reflective finishes should be reviewed during
commissioning so they do not remain continuously within the active
detection field.
Finished Rough-In Arrangement
Presents the coordinated layout after the basin, countertop,
plumbing, electrical and millwork components have been considered.
All components should remain organized, labelled and accessible for
future maintenance.
Engineering note: Rough-in dimensions must not be based
on estimated product measurements. Confirm the mounting-hole diameter,
allowable countertop thickness, hose lengths, cable reach, controller
dimensions, valve orientation and power requirements from the approved
FontanaShowers specification sheet or project submittal before countertop
fabrication.

Recommended Rough-In Installation Sequence
1. Review Approved Submittals
Confirm the final model, finish, faucet dimensions, power
configuration, valve arrangement and installation accessories before
preparing the rough-in.
2. Coordinate the Faucet Centerline
Position the mounting centerline so the water stream enters the basin
capture area while maintaining suitable clearance from the backsplash
and basin rim.
3. Review Under-Counter Conflicts
Check the location against the sink bowl, drain, trap, water
supplies, support rails, cabinet partitions, drawers and shelves.
4. Reserve the Equipment Zone
Establish a dedicated area for the motorized valve, controller,
power components and cable connections that remains accessible after
construction.
5. Install Water-Supply Stub-Outs
Provide accessible water supplies and isolation valves in locations
that permit direct connection without sharply bending or stretching
the flexible hoses.
6. Coordinate Electrical Power
Provide the selected AC source or battery-access arrangement in a dry,
serviceable location consistent with the project electrical drawings.
7. Prepare the Countertop Opening
Transfer the verified single-hole mounting requirement to the
countertop shop drawings and confirm the finished opening is correctly
located.
8. Install Support Components
Provide suitable mounting surfaces or brackets for the controller,
valve and cable management without blocking access to plumbing
connections.
9. Route Hoses and Cables
Keep water hoses and wiring organized, supported and separated from
sharp edges, moving hardware, heat sources and potential leak areas.
10. Verify Service Access
Confirm the controller, motorized valve, power components,
connectors, shutoff valves and faucet mounting hardware remain
reachable.
11. Flush the Water Supply
Flush the supply piping before connecting the faucet valve assembly
so construction debris does not enter the motorized valve, filter or
outlet.
12. Inspect Before Final Installation
Complete a rough-in inspection before installing permanent shelves,
drawers, doors or panels that could obstruct the faucet system.
Architectural and MEP Coordination Considerations
Lavatory Coordination
The faucet outlet should discharge within the basin while the sensor
field remains clear of surfaces that could trigger unintended
activation.
Countertop Coordination
Countertop seams, reinforcing members, sink clips and substrate
build-up should not conflict with the faucet shank or mounting
hardware.
Millwork Coordination
Cabinet partitions, shelves, drawers and reinforcing rails should not
block the controller, valve, power components or required service
opening.
Plumbing Coordination
Maintain access to the trap, isolation valves, water connections and
motorized valve while protecting electronic components from potential
leaks.
Electrical Coordination
Confirm the approved AC or battery configuration, transformer
arrangement, receptacle location and separation between electrical and
plumbing components.
Maintenance Coordination
Provide sufficient access for valve cleaning, filter inspection,
battery replacement, connector testing and controller replacement.
Accessibility Coordination
Coordinate the faucet location, sensor activation zone, lavatory
height, knee clearance and clear floor space with applicable
accessibility requirements.
Splash-Control Coordination
Review the basin depth, drain position, spout projection and operating
pressure so the water stream does not produce excessive splash during
use.
Sensor and Hydraulic Commissioning Requirements
Sensor-Range Adjustment
Adjust the infrared detection field to recognize normal hand movement
without sensing the basin, backsplash, mirror edge or nearby restroom
accessories.
Multiple-Angle Activation Test
Test activation from the front and both sides of the basin to confirm
the faucet responds consistently throughout the intended user
approach.
False-Trigger Test
Observe the faucet with the basin empty and verify that reflective
surfaces, moving doors, lighting conditions or nearby fixtures do not
trigger unintended flow.
Water-Stream Alignment
Confirm the stream enters the basin’s capture area without striking
the drain directly or contacting a steep basin surface that could
cause splash.
Pressure and Leak Test
Pressurize the system and inspect all hose, valve and faucet
connections. Correct leakage before energizing or commissioning the
electronic components.
Automatic Shut-Off Test
Remove hands from the detection zone and confirm flow stops promptly.
Also verify the safety timeout interrupts extended or continuous
activation.
Power-Failure Test
Verify the selected power configuration and confirm all electrical
connectors are secure, dry and accessible for future diagnostic
service.
Final Functional Test
Complete repeated activation cycles to confirm stable sensor response,
consistent flow, prompt shut-off and acceptable splash performance.
