Maintenance
Cannot receive more than a trickle of water:
Both hot and cold supply lines must be pressurized.
If only one side is pressurized, the system will not
allow adequate flow of water.
Faucet leaks from showerhead: Remove the
showerhead then turn the water on and off to verify
if the cartridge is leaking or the showerhead is
draining slowly (the showerhead may need to be
cleaned if water drains slowly).
If leak persists - SHUT OFF WATER SUPPLIES
Replace cartridge assembly - RP47201.
Unable to set or maintain mixed water temperature:
SHUT OFF WATER SUPPLIES. Remove handle
assembly, trim sleeve, and bonnet nut. Check
to make sure the "H" marking on the cartridge
aligns with the hot inlet and the "C" marking on the
cartridge aligns with the cold inlet to the valve body
The thermostatic cartridge cannot function if hot
and cold inlets are reversed.
