Kohler recommends the use of a water softener if this product is
being installed in a location with hard water.
This product is not designed for steam applications,
and may not perform satisfactorily as a steam unit.
Make sure all water lines are purged prior to final connection
to the MasterShower tower water inlets.
When installing the unit in areas with sand or other sediments in
water lines, Kohler recommends the following Ametek, or
equivalent, filters: Cold Water = HF150 S1, 3/4" I.P.S. inlet filter; Hot
Water = WH34 RB25, 3/4" I.P.S. inlet filter.
Installation with fiberglass or acrylic shower enclosures may not
provide adequate clearance for MasterShower tower mounting.
The MasterShower tower requires a flat mounting surface for its
entire height.
Installation requires horizontal cross members. Installation does
not require vertical studs, but they may be necessary to support
thin-walled surfaces around the mounting box opening.
Risers must extend 7" (17.8cm) above bottom cross member for
mounting box.
Supply strain relief bushing where 120 VAC line with ground
enters transformer enclosure.
