Ensure water supply lines are thoroughly flushed before mounting the fixture to prevent debris buildup.
Verify that your deck mount surface is level and capable of supporting the solid brass fixture securely.
Adjust the pillars to match your existing 4-inch to 10-inch faucet holes before tightening connections.
Check all threaded connections for proper sealing and test the ceramic disc handles and hand shower diverter before daily use.
