4.2 General Installation Steps

1. Turn Off Water Supply: Locate the main water shut-off valve for your home or the specific bathroom and turn it off.
2. Remove Existing Showerhead (if applicable): Unscrew your current showerhead from the shower arm. Clean any old thread seal tape from the shower arm threads.
3. Install Shower Arm Diverter (if applicable): If your setup requires a diverter for the handheld unit, apply thread seal tape to the shower arm threads and install the diverter.
4. Mount Slide Bar:
   • Determine the desired height and position for the slide bar on the shower wall. Ensure it is mounted to a stud or using appropriate wall anchors for secure installation.
   • Mark the drilling locations for the mounting brackets.

   • Attach the slide bar to the secured brackets.
5. Connect Hose:
   • Attach one end of the 69-inch shower hose to the handheld showerhead.
   • Attach the other end of the hose to the water outlet (either the diverter or the wall elbow). Ensure all connections are hand-tightened, then use a wrench for a final quarter-turn, being careful not to overtighten.
6. Place Handheld Showerhead: Insert the handheld showerhead into the holder on the slide bar.
7. Test for Leaks: Slowly turn the main water supply back on and check all connections for leaks. Tighten any leaking connections as necessary.
