ASSEMBLY
1. Determine length of brass NPT nipple ( 1 ) needed:
a. Place mark on existing shower arm at wall surface.
Unscrew shower arm from elbow in wall.
b. Measure distance from mark on shower arm to end of
shower arm threads. Add
then round to nearest
Example 1: If measurement = 1
rounded = 2" NPT nipple—this is the length needed.
Example 2: If measurement = 1
rounded = 2" NPT nipple—this is the length needed.
IMPORTANT:
If shower arm is located above tile/fiberglass wall
surface you must add distance from sheetrock to face of tile/
fiberglass shower wall to the above measurement.
NOTE:
If supplied 2" nipple (1) is not correct length based on
above formula, you must obtain correct size NPT brass nipple
(sold separately), available at most hardware stores.
2. Apply generous amount of PTFE Thread Sealant Tape (24) to
both ends of nipple (1).
3. Hand tighten inlet fitting (2) onto nipple (1), then nipple
to fitting in wall. Use adjustable wrench on inlet fitting
to tighten both connections simultaneously until both are
secure with no leaks.

secure with set screw (25).
