Installation Instructions
Follow these steps for proper installation of your Dreyoo Universal Bath Tub Spout:
1. Prepare the Installation Area
- Turn off the main water supply to your bathroom.
- Remove your old tub spout. This usually involves unscrewing a set screw underneath the spout or twisting it counter-clockwise if it's a threaded connection.
- Clean the area around the pipe extending from the wall.
2. Verify Pipe Length and Connection Type
Ensure your pipe length is within the recommended range and identify your connection type.
Image: This diagram illustrates the required pipe length extending from the wall for proper installation, which should be between 4 inches and 4-3/8 inches to prevent gaps.
- Measure the length of the pipe extending from the wall. It should be between 4 inches and 4-3/8 inches to ensure a flush fit with the new spout.
- Identify if your existing pipe is 1/2'' IPS or 3/4'' IPS threaded.
Image: This image demonstrates how the tub spout accommodates both 3/4" IPS threaded connections directly and 1/2" IPS threaded connections by adding the included thread reducer.
3. Install the Adapter (if necessary)
- If your pipe is 1/2'' IPS, thread the provided 1/2'' to 3/4'' adapter onto the pipe extending from the wall. Ensure it is hand-tightened, then use a wrench for a final quarter turn. Do not overtighten.
- If your pipe is 3/4'' IPS, the adapter is not needed.
4. Attach the Tub Spout
- Apply plumber's tape (not included) clockwise around the threads of the pipe (or adapter, if used).
- Thread the new Dreyoo tub spout onto the pipe/adapter by turning it clockwise.
- Hand-tighten the spout until it is snug and facing downwards. Avoid using tools to tighten the spout directly, as this can damage the finish.
- Ensure the spout is level and flush against the wall.
5. Final Check
- Turn the main water supply back on.
- Check for any leaks around the connection point. If leaks occur, turn off the water, re-tape the threads, and re-tighten the spout.

Operating Instructions
The Dreyoo Universal Bath Tub Spout is designed for straightforward operation:
- To fill the bathtub, turn on the hot and cold water supply using your existing faucet handles. Water will flow directly from the spout into the tub.
- This model does not include a diverter. If you require shower functionality, ensure your shower system has a separate diverter mechanism.

Maintenance
To keep your Dreyoo tub spout looking new and functioning properly:
- Cleaning: Clean regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap or a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, as these can damage the matte black finish.
- Drying: After each use, wipe the spout dry to prevent water spots and mineral buildup, especially in hard water areas.
- Inspection: Periodically check the connection for any signs of leaks or corrosion.

Troubleshooting
