Understanding the Value of Integrated Rough-In Leveling
Installing a shower valve can often feel like a guessing game when trying to achieve a flush, even look against a newly finished wall.

By removing the guesswork from alignment, this feature prevents crooked trim plates and ensures your final handle operation feels balanced and secure.

Ensure water supply lines are completely shut off before beginning any rough-in installation work.
Use the built-in level and finished wall indicator to align the valve accurately within the wall framing.
Attach the included pressure test caps to test the plumbing connections for leaks before sealing the wall.
Keep the protective plastic cover in place over the valve body until finish work and tile installation are fully completed.
Care & Maintenance
Surface Cleaning Wipe the matte black cover plate periodically with a soft, damp microfiber cloth to remove water spots.
Avoid Harsh Cleaners Never use abrasive scouring pads, steel wool, or chemical solvents that could damage the matte black finish.
Mild Soap Solution Use only mild liquid soap and warm water if a deeper cleaning is necessary for the exterior trim.
