Usage

Thermostatic Mixing Valve

The Santa Cruz ShowerSpa comes equipped with a thermostatic mixing valve to safely control water tem-

perature. Once you set the knob to the desired operating temperature, the thermostatic mixing valve will

regulate the temperature, keeping it constant even when water pressure drops inside the plumbing lines

(i.e. someone ﬂushes a toilet, etc.).

The button on the knob points to the current water temperature. Rotate the knob counter-clockwise to

increase temperature or clockwise to decrease temperature. Anti-scald technology is provided by limiting

temperature to 38°C/100°F unless the button on the knob is pressed. To increase the temperature beyond

38°C/100°F, press the button and continue turning counter-clockwise. Each time you revisit your Shower-

Spa, allow the water to reach operating temperature before entering the shower.

Brass Diverter

The Santa Cruz Showerspa offers independent control of each function. Water pressure can be directed

to a single function or split between the different functions via the four diverter knobs (located on the

side of the ShowerSpa).

The four functions are rain shower head, waterfall shower head, handheld shower and body jets. To turn

a function on, rotate the knob towards you 90° and enjoy. To turn the ShowerSpa off, rotate all diverters

so the knobs are pointing up and leave the thermostatic mixing valve at the desired temperature.

Care and Maintenance

Always blot dry any water from the surface of your ShowerSpa. To help protect your ShowerSpa from

hard water stains and mineral deposits, use an auto spray wax periodically and wipe down your Shower-

Spa after each use. Allowing water to evaporate on the surface can lead to a buildup of mineral deposits.

Cleaning with a damp, nonabrasive sponge and drying with a clean soft cloth should help keep your

ShowerSpa looking beautiful.

REMEMBER

NEVER use any abrasives or harsh cleaners!

Clean with mild soap and water ONLY!

To keep your ShowerSpa in pristine condition,

DRY AFTER EACH USE!

Installation – Retroﬁt

Existing Shower Replacement

NOTE—In a remodel in which you are not replacing the ﬁnished

wall surface (tile, or backing material) it is advisable to pur-

chase a PULSE ShowerSpa model that covers the location of

existing valve assembly—either single handle or two-handle

type. If your PULSE ShowerSpa model does not cover this

area, you will need to either choose another PULSE Shower-

Spa model that does or make necessary repairs with appro-

priate materials (i.e. wallboard, tile, ﬁberglass, etc).

1. TURN OFF WATER SUPPLY TO SHOWER. Typically there is a

gate valve where the water main enters the house. Turning

the water valve off at hot water tank does not turn off cold

water supply line.

2. Make certain that water is completely turned off to both the

hot & cold supply lines of the shower. Turn shower valve on,

both hot and cold, to verify water supply is OFF. Open a sink

faucet in the bathroom in which you are installing the Show-

erSpa to relieve any pressure and help adequately drain the

shower supply lines.

3. Remove handle(s) and trim cover(s) of your existing valve

exposing valve body in wall.

4. Locate hot and cold supply lines entering valve. Using a

reciprocating saw with sharp metal saw blade, cut existing

valve out, preserving threads of the supply lines entering

valve. You should also cut the riser within wall supplying the

existing shower head. Carefully twist and remove valve.

5. Unscrew old shower head from shower arm and then un-

screw shower arm from the wall.

6. Water lines must be extended outside of wall cavity, 3" on

center. For best results, attach 90° brass ﬁttings (available at

most hardware stores) to the stub-outs maintaining ¼" – ½"

of space between the ﬁtting and ﬁnished wall. The open

end of the 90° brass ﬁttings should point down so the supply

lines attach parallel to the wall.

7. Make certain that when you connect to the stub-outs they

DO NOT INTERFERE with the backside of the ShowerSpa

after mounting.

8. Mark location of holes for the mounting brackets, making

sure holes are plumb. For a person 5'8" – 6'2" tall, we recom-

mend placing the holes of the upper bracket at 61" from ﬁn-

ished ﬂoor height.

From the upper bracket holes, measure

down 31¼" for location of the lower bracket holes. Before

drilling holes for the brackets, make certain the Showerspa

will rest ﬂat against ﬁnished wall surface at the desired

mounting height with the supply lines connected.

9. Drill ¼" holes through wall surface using a masonry bit. Drill

slowly through wall surface to avoid cracking and chipping.

Insert anchors and securely screw brackets to wall. Before

connecting hot and cold supply lines, hang the ShowerSpa

on wall, check the height and make sure the ShowerSpa is

ﬂush against the wall with a secure ﬁt.

10. Connect hot and cold water supply lines to stub-outs—

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Before mounting the ShowerSpa,

check ﬁttings to make sure they are secure. Turn on water

and check for leaks. When ﬁttings are leak-free, mount

ShowerSpa on wall.

11. OPTIONAL—Seal around body of ShowerSpa with a bead of

silicone. DO NOT SEAL BOTTOM.

Additional ﬁttings or longer supply lines may be necessary depending on your speciﬁc situation.

The mounting height can vary depending on several factors (i.e. location of supply lines, old valve access area, interference from ShowerSpa

plumbing, personal preference, etc).
