Tools and Materials
Before You Begin
Shut off the main water supply.
Observe all local plumbing and building codes.
Do not use this flow spout as a showerhead because it will cause
excessive splashing and does not meet showerhead codes.
This flow spout is available in two orifice sizes: 3/4″ (2 cm) and
15/16″ (2.4 cm). The smaller orifice size is designed for a 5-10
gpm (19-38 lpm) flow rate, and Kohler K-400-K, K-401-K, or
K-306-KS supply valves are recommended. The larger orifice size
is designed for a 7-15 gpm (26-57 lpm) flow rate, and Kohler
K-300-K or K-301-K supply valves are recommended.
NOTE: A flow rate lower than the flow rate listed on the
specification sheet may disrupt the water flow.
The drip tray is an optional accessory available for the wall
mount but not for the ceiling mount.
A water hammer arrestor is recommended in ceiling mounted
applications using a high flow, deck mounted valve. Kohler
recommends that a Sioux Chief 652-AD vacuum breaker arrester
be located near the outlet side of the valve. Contact Sioux Chief at
1-800-821-3944 or www.siouxchief.com.
For ceiling mount applications, the height from the bottom of the
bath to the spout should not exceed 9’ (2.7 m).
