Before Installation

IMPORTANT:

Please be advised that the provided cold water T-Valve should be installed at the fill valve under the toilet tank. Do not disconnect from water supply valve on the wall.

NOTE: The hot water T-Valve will be installed at the hot water supply under your bathroom sink. If you do not have access to the fill valve under the toilet tank, visit us at www.brondell.com or contact us at 1-888-542-3355 for further assistance.

For FSA-25 Dual Temperature Model Only

Check the size of the hot water supply connection (most likely under the sink/washbasin). This should be a 38 " connection to properly fit and install the enclosed T-Valve.

NOTE: If the connection is a 12 " connection, you will need to purchase the following reducing adapter available online and at many plumbing hardware stores: Reducing Adapter, 12 " Female NPT x 38 " Male Compression

Check water supply line

Check the water supply line that connects the toilet tank fill valve to the water shut-off valve at the wall.

• If it is a rigid pipe, you will need to purchase a flexible water supply hose to replace it before installing the FreshSpa.
• The length of the hose may vary, and the top connection size should be 78 " ballcock to connect to the T-Valve that you will install under the toilet tank.
• The bottom connection will vary (most common are 3/8 and 1/2 female compression).

Installation

Pease read these instructions carefully before installing your FreshSpa. Failure to do so could result in flooding, leaking or damage to the product.

1. Existing toilet seat removal

a. Lift hinge covers and use flathead or Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the mounting bolts. Alternatively, you may need to loosen the mounting bolts underneath the seat.
b. Remove the toilet seat, and set the seat, mounting bolts, and hardware aside.

Step 1b

2. Turn off water supply valve and flush toilet

a. Turn water supply valve off to stop the flow of water.
b. Flush toilet and hold down handle to completely empty tank.

Step 9d

CAUTION: Do not overtighten the pressure cap. You will risk damaging the tubing.

Installing the Bidet Attachment

1. Install adjustable mounting brackets into the bidet attachment

Place circular mounting brackets into the circular openings of the bidet attachment.

Step 1

2. Install bidet attachment on toilet

a. Place the bidet attachment on the toilet with the nozzle close to the back of the toilet, leaving a slight gap between the toilet and the nozzles. This will vary by toilet.
b. Make sure the adjustable brackets line up with the holes in the toilet fixture. You may need to rotate the adjustable brackets accordingly to line up properly

Step 2b

c. Replace the toilet seat on top of the bidet attachment and secure using original toilet seat hardware. Make sure to tighten so that the bidet attachment and seat do not move.

d. Hold the pressure connector up against the hot water inlet on the bidet attachment. Slide the pressure cap along the tubing and screw the cap onto the hot water inlet until the pressure connector is secure.

Step 4d

1. Turn on water supply and check for leaks

a. Open the main water supply valve slowly and check for leaks.
b. Wait 5-10 minutes, check again, and if there are no leaks, continue.

NOTE: If there is any leaking, check all rubber washers and make sure all water connections are tight and secure. If necessary, you can use plumber's tape for any leaking connections.

Using the FreshSpa

1. Self-cleaning nozzle feature

To clean the bidet nozzle, turn the control dial counter clockwise towards the "nozzle clean" position and water will wash over the nozzles.

2. Bidet wash

To engage a bidet wash setting, turn the dial clockwise towards the bidet wash zone.

• The further the dial is turned, the higher the water pressure will be.
  • To lower the water pressure, turn the dial back towards the center.

3. Adjustable nozzle position

Use the nozzle position lever to find the best angle for the ultimate cleanse.

• Moving the lever forwards will position the nozzle away from you.
• Moving the lever backwards will position the nozzle closer to you.

TIP: The nozzle position lever can be used during a wash to create an oscillation motion, providing a wider cleaning action.

WARNING

Risk of scalding. High water temperature can cause severe burns.

Be sure to set the water temperature for your hot water heater at or below 120^ F ( 49^ C) and use extreme caution when mixing hot and cold water during use.

Brondell is not liable for any misuse of product or failure to use caution when connecting to hot water.

Warm water wash (FSA-25 dual temperature model only)

To adjust water temperature (when both hot and cold water are connected), slowly turn dial clockwise towards “+” until the desired temperature is reached.

NOTES:

There may be a delay in the warm water reaching the bidet attachment as the cold water in your pipes clears and is replaced with hot water (similar to the delay when you turn your faucet on).

If only connected to cold water, make sure that the temperature dial on the bidet attachment is turned as far as it can go towards the “-” setting for best pressure adjustability.

TIP: For a quick and easy way to get warm water to the bidet, run the "Nozzle Cleaning" function with the warm water turned on for a short time until the water heats up, then use as normal.
