I bought this and installed it, however I have to turn the valve handle almost 4 inches before the water starts to flow. Any ideas?

I have the same question with mine that does the same thing. Seems strange but works ok

Their are ON/OFF markings which are about 4 inches apart. i had this installed and have not experienced any problems. i move the handle up to the ON position for full flow. i don't try to stop short of the ON position.

Make sure you flip the valve to the hoses and remove them 1st I havent had any trouble with mine.

If you have already filled the tank and installed it high enough as specified on the instructions, then you may be not opening the valve to the correct direction, wich is counterclockwise. Please let me know if it helps.

You need both a diverted valve and a temperature control valve. That is two different valves that need to be plumbed correctly.

No I have not. Make sure your main water valve is open wide enough. You had to close it completely during the install.

there is a plastic insert in the hose which regulates the flow of the water . maybe it has something blocking the flow . take that plastic insert out . maybe that might fix your problem

It screwed on fine for me. My problem was NO WATER PRESSURE! I think it needs to be elevated a couple feet to use properly. Lost my patience with it so I gave it to my neighbor. I told him my issues and said "good luck to you. If you can't get it functional then toss it or pass it on. I Don't recommend at all.

You have a bad valve. Online you can find fixes if your willing to take apart and work on it. Probably have sedament it the valve.

I did not install the valve. The trim was perfect for replacing what was existing in a rental. I would suggest turning the main off. Aloha, Sean

You need to squeeze the valve while you blow into it. It is a bit hard to do at first, but does loosen up after you use it a bit. Hope that helps!

I wish I could answer this for you. I ordered it & gave it to my contractor to install (which he did without any problems). I will say it is a little annoying that the cold water handle is constantly bumping into the spray nozle; you would assume the manufacturer would leave ample space to keep them from having to be 'just right'. But, all in all I'm pleased.Sorry to not have answered your question!

Put it on and give it a turn. I read other reviews saying it leaked. Mine did not and I have really good water pressure.

I purchased the valve but did not do the work, so I do not know the answer to your question.

Make sure u take out the plug in the head that regulates the water pressure. Then it's wonderful!! It works like a charm...u will love it!

Other thing is that the solenoid must be completly tight to be used with the computer. You only turn this maybe 180deg maxs to manually open the valve. If you turn more water start leaking. This is normal.

The way these come out of the box the factory adjustment is set to stop the valve short of fully opening on the hot side. Simple solution: 1. Remove cap from handle end and remove the phillips head screw inside to take off the handle. 2. Remove the torx head screw that is inside the valve stem. Then you be able to pull out the out the plastic adjustment ring to move it a couple of clicks to the left for hotter water. Grab it by the triangular piece to pull it out and re-seat it. 3. Put everything back together in the order of removal. The whole process takes less than 5 minutes to do yourself. I believe the torx head screw is 15, if I remember correctly. Good luck.

I believe it says in the instructions you need to move it closer to the filter to get a water flow / movement but I may be wrong. If that doesn't work use a flat head open and clean if it was a used one.
