• Test pressure
If static pressure exceeds 72.5 psi, a pressure-reducing valve
must be fitted.
Avoid major pressure differences between cold and hot water
supply.
• Flow rate at 43.5 psi flow pressure:
Spout approx. 26 l/min or 6.9 gpm/60psi
Shower approx. 8 l/min or 2.5 gpm/60psi
• Temperature:
Hot water supply
Recommended
Notes
• Installation of backflow protection must comply with local
codes and regulations.
• An access panel must be provided for access to diverting
unit and hose connections.
• Major pressure differences between cold and hot water
supply should be avoided.
