Handle Operation - The bottom handle is used to set the temperature. The top handle is used for water diversion and volume control.

Cut Out Dimensions - The cut out in wall should be 7.89 X 1.89 Inches and no more – this will ensure that the trim plate will cover the cut-out hole in the wall.

Trims - The trims comprise of a well finished cover plate and handle knobs constructed in solid Brass. Over the temperature control knob, is an anti-scald temperature stop ring which is a safety feature in this thermostatic value. With the help of this ring, temperature of the water is regulated. Covering this ring is the temperature handle knob which has a push button on the side. In order to adjust the water temperature, one needs to press this button and move the handle to hot or cold direction. Without pressing it, the user will not be able to rotate the handle to the full HOT position – as an anti-scald prevention mechanism. The anti-scald temperature stop ring should be fitted tightly over the valve (tapping using a rubber mallet might be required) for it to function properly.

Depending upon the shower model, trims can be of different shape and size, varying from square to circular shower handles.
