WINTERIZING INSTRUCTIONS
It is very important to winterize outdoor showers! Disassembly is Required!
Showers are susceptible to freeze damage just like water faucets and hose bibbs. The unit(s) must be drained in case of freezing conditions. In cold, freezing climates it is advisable to remove faucet handles, cartridges, and accessories like hand sprays, foot showers, drinking fountain bubblers, and hose bibbs, etc. and store them inside during winter months.
TYPICAL VALVE ASSEMBLY AND ADVICE FROM A PROFESSIONAL PLUMBER:
1. Plumb your outdoor shower with a shut-off valve so that the entire system can be totally drained prior to winter weather.
2. Turn off water supply to the shower unit. For a stop and waste valve, shut off the water by turning the valve clockwise until it won’t turn anymore. For a ball valve, turn the handle a quarter turn so it is perpendicular to the pipe. Remove drain caps and let water drain.
3. Remove all valves, cartridges and accessories to allow them to drain completely.
4. Use compressed air to blow excess moisture out of the pipes and valves.
5. If an air compressor is not available remove the shower heads, valves and cartridges, hand sprays, foot showers, and hose bibbs and store them indoors for the winter. Cover the shower pipes to prevent water and debris from entering the exposed openings.
6. If you forget to winterize your unit before freezing temperatures occurs and your pipes do freeze, you can avoid busted valves if you act quickly to thaw the pipes in a safe manner before turning them on for use.
