CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Do not subject the

vacuum breaker to continuous pressure for more than twelve

hours.

NOTE: Install the vacuum breaker at least 6″ (15.2 cm) above the

ﬁxture rim. Consult local codes for vacuum breaker height.

NOTE: Apply thread sealant where applicable.

Thread a 1/2″ IPS nipple into each supply outlet piping and

supply inlet piping on the ﬁnished wall. Ensure that the threads

of each 1/2″ IPS nipple extend beyond the ﬁnished wall.

Slide the wall bracket over both of the 1/2″ IPS nipples until it is

snug against the ﬁnished wall.

Insert one sleeve through each hole of the wall bracket, then

thread each sleeve onto each 1/2″ IPS nipple.

Using a seat wrench or a 7/16″ square bar, tighten each sleeve.

Do not overtighten.

Conﬁrm that an O-ring is located in the outlet port and inlet port

of the vacuum breaker. If not present, reinstall the O-ring(s).

Slide the vacuum breaker into both sleeves at the same time.

Secure with two socket screws. Tighten the socket screws with a

5/32″ hex wrench. Do not overtighten.
