Fontana American Standard Deck-Mounted Sensor Faucet: Commissioning and Performance Verification

This commissioning and performance verification resource is intended to support architects, plumbing engineers, commissioning authorities, contractors, installers, facility managers and maintenance personnel responsible for verifying the operational readiness of the Fontana American Standard deck-mounted automatic sensor faucet. The drawing package identifies the commissioning sequence, water-pressure verification, sensor activation testing, flow performance, automatic shutoff, electrical operation, leak inspection, maintenance readiness and final project acceptance requirements before the fixture is placed into service.

Fontana American Standard Deck-Mounted Sensor Faucet

Commissioning confirms that the faucet has been installed in accordance with the approved project documentation and operates correctly under actual site conditions. Mechanical, electrical and sensor-controlled functions should all be verified before the fixture is released for normal use.

This verification procedure is intended to confirm reliable sensor operation, proper water delivery, automatic shutoff, electrical performance and maintenance accessibility while documenting the final acceptance of the installation.

  • Installation: Deck mounted
  • Operation: Infrared automatic sensor
  • Commissioning: Final project verification
  • Inspection: Mechanical and electrical systems
  • Performance: Operational testing required
  • Acceptance: Final installation approval

Required Commissioning and Performance Verification Package

Each commissioning record should use a consistent verification checklist, inspection sequence and product-identification block. Testing should confirm that all plumbing, electrical and automatic control systems operate as intended before project handover.

Commissioning Overview

Provides the complete commissioning workflow from initial inspection through final operational acceptance.

Installation Inspection

Verify that the faucet, mounting hardware and concealed components are installed according to the approved project documentation.

Water Supply Verification

Confirm that water supply connections, shutoff valves and supply pressure meet the specified operating requirements.

Leak Inspection

Inspect all plumbing connections, flexible hoses, fittings and the faucet body for leakage before operational testing begins.

Electrical Verification

Verify the controller, transformer or battery power supply, cable connections and electrical routing before energizing the system.

Sensor Activation Test

Confirm that the infrared sensor consistently detects the user's hands within the intended operating zone.

Solenoid Operation

Verify that the electronic controller correctly opens and closes the solenoid valve during every activation cycle.

Water Flow Performance

Confirm stable water delivery, consistent stream quality and proper aerator performance during normal operation.

Automatic Shutoff

Verify that water flow stops promptly after the user's hands leave the sensor detection zone.

Temperature Verification

Where applicable, confirm that the mixed-water temperature remains within the project's specified operating range.

Maintenance Accessibility

Verify unobstructed access to the controller, solenoid, shutoff valves, filters and other serviceable components.

Operational Cycle Test

Perform repeated activation cycles to confirm reliable automatic operation under normal usage conditions.

Performance Documentation

Document inspection results, commissioning observations, corrective actions and verification records for project handover.

Final Acceptance

Confirm that the faucet complies with project specifications and is approved for routine operation following successful commissioning.

Engineering note: Commissioning and performance verification documents are intended for project coordination and acceptance only. Final operational approval should be based on the approved FontanaShowers specification sheet, installation instructions, commissioning procedures and applicable project requirements.

Project verification: The architect, commissioning authority, plumbing engineer, electrical engineer, contractor, facility manager and licensed installer should verify that installation quality, sensor performance, water delivery, electrical operation, automatic shutoff, maintenance accessibility and all project acceptance criteria have been successfully completed before the Fontana American Standard deck-mounted sensor faucet is placed into service.
