- Mount the Faucet Body: Secure the wall-mounted faucet body to the prepared wall connections using appropriate mounting hardware and pipe sealant to ensure a watertight seal.
- Install Shower Riser: Attach the shower riser to the top outlet of the faucet body. Ensure it is vertical and securely tightened.

- Connect Showerhead: Thread the rain drop showerhead onto the top of the shower riser.

- Water Flow Control: The two outer handles control the hot and cold water supply. Turn them to adjust the water temperature.
- Diverter Handle: The center handle acts as a diverter. Turn it to switch water flow between the main rain showerhead and the hand shower.
- Temperature Adjustment: Mix hot and cold water using the respective handles to achieve your desired water temperature.
Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance will help preserve the finish and functionality of your shower system.
- Cleaning the Finish: Clean the matte black finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
- Showerhead Nozzles: Periodically check the showerhead nozzles for mineral buildup. Most rain showerheads have flexible rubber nozzles that can be gently rubbed to dislodge deposits.
- Ceramic Disc Cartridges: The drip-free ceramic disc cartridges are designed for long-lasting performance. If a leak occurs from the handles, the cartridge may need to be replaced. Consult a professional plumber for cartridge replacement.
- Corrosion Resistance: The brass construction and finish are designed to be corrosion resistant. However, proper cleaning and avoiding harsh chemicals are essential for maintaining this property.
