- Connect the hot water supply line to Inlet 1 (typically marked 'H' or red).
- Connect the cold water supply line to Inlet 2 (typically marked 'C' or blue).
- Connect your desired shower components (e.g., rain shower head, handheld shower) to Outlet 1 and Outlet 2 as needed.
- Ensure all NPT 1/2 inch connections are properly sealed with plumber's tape or sealant and tightened to prevent leaks.

작동 지침
The Backnets Thermostatic Shower Valve offers precise control over water flow and temperature, ensuring a comfortable and safe showering experience.
Figure 3: Control Functions. This image highlights the three main control functions: Push Button for ON/OFF, Non-Slip Design Flow Control, and Temperature Lock set at 100°F.
온도 조절
- The thermostatic shower valve features a dedicated temperature control knob.
- To adjust the temperature, rotate the lower knob. The valve is designed to precisely set the temperature at 100°F (38°C) to prevent scalding.
- For temperatures above 100°F, you may need to press a safety override button (if present on your specific trim kit) while rotating the knob.
- This constant temperature protection ensures a stable water temperature, eliminating the need for frequent adjustments.
Figure 4: Constant Temperature Protection. This graphic demonstrates how the thermostatic cartridge maintains a consistent 100°F water temperature, preventing sudden changes and scalding.
Flow Control and Diverter Function
- The valve features a 2-way diverter, allowing you to easily control water output to two different shower functions (e.g., overhead shower and handheld spray).
- To turn the water ON or OFF for a specific outlet, press the corresponding push button.
- To adjust the water flow (volume) for an active outlet, rotate the flow control knob. Turning it clockwise typically increases flow, and counter-clockwise decreases it.
- Both functions can be used simultaneously, allowing for flexible showering options.
Figure 5: Simultaneous Functionality. This image demonstrates how to activate and adjust two shower functions concurrently using the push buttons for ON/OFF and rotary knobs for volume control.
