This remodeling plate is designed to simplify the process of updating your bathroom faucet. Follow these general steps for installation:

1. Bereiten Sie den Bereich vor: Ensure the water supply to the existing faucet is turned off. Remove the old 2-handle or 3-handle faucet and any associated trim. Clean the wall or tile surface thoroughly.

3. Positionieren Sie die Platte: Place the Danco 80000 Remodeling Plate over the existing faucet opening. The central hole in the plate should align with the new single-handle faucet's rough-in valve.
4. Sichern Sie das Kennzeichen: Insert the provided mounting screws through the designated holes in the plate and into the mounting bars or appropriate wall anchors. Ensure the plate is level and securely fastened to the wall. Note: Depending on your specific installation, you may need to adjust screw length or use additional sealing material (e.g., silicone caulk) around the edges for a watertight seal.
5. Install New Faucet: Proceed with the installation of your new single-handle faucet according to its manufacturer's instructions. The remodeling plate will serve as the base for the new faucet's trim kit.
6. Auf Dichtheit prüfen: Once the new faucet is fully installed, slowly turn the water supply back on and check for any leaks around the faucet and plate.

6. Bedienungsanleitung

The Danco 80000 Faucet Remodeling Plate is a static component that provides a finished surface for your single-handle faucet. It does not have operational parts. Its function is to cover the larger opening left by a multi-handle faucet and provide a stable mounting surface for the new single-handle unit.

7. Wartung

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Danco 80000 Faucet Remodeling Plate:

• Reinigung: Clean the chrome finish regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
• Trocknen: After cleaning, wipe the plate dry to prevent water spots and maintain its shine.
• Inspektion: Periodically check the plate for any signs of loosening or damage. Ensure the seal around the edges remains intact to prevent water infiltration.

8. Fehlerbehebung

Sollten während oder nach der Installation Probleme auftreten, beachten Sie bitte Folgendes:

• Plate Not Sitting Flush:
  • Check if the mounting screws are too long and are hitting pipes or obstructions behind the wall. Shorter screws may be required.
  • Ensure the wall surface is flat and free of debris that might prevent the plate from sitting evenly.
• Water Leaks Around Edges:
  • The plate does not include an integrated seal. Apply a bead of silicone caulk around the perimeter of the plate where it meets the wall to create a watertight seal.
  • Ensure all plumbing connections for the new faucet are tightened correctly.
• Difficulty Aligning New Faucet:
  • Verify that the new single-handle faucet's rough-in valve is centered within the 5-1/8 inch opening of the remodeling plate. Adjust the valve if necessary before securing the plate.
