PRODUCT OVERVIEW Geberit's Pressure Assist Toilet System, using PF/2 energized flushing system, is a revolutionary concealed tank, carrier and wall-hung toilet system. It takes the pressure assist technology and moves it into the wall for a quieter flush cycle than floor-mounted pressure assist toilets. Geberit's pressure assist toilet system redefines low consumption plumbing. It can save up to 25% more water than conventional 1.6 GPF technologies since double flushing is eliminated. Maintenance personnel especially appreciate this pressure assist toilet because the 3" discharge pipe helps prevent clogs, the drain line carry exceeds the ASME standard and the large water surface in the bowl reduces stains, odor and provides a more sanitary environment. The Geberit system consists of: Tank & Carrier Model 111.817.00.1 Wall Hung Bowl Model 111.875.DY.1 Access Panel-Flush Actuator Model 115.762.21.1 Open Front Toilet Seat Model 113.055.DY.1 FEATURES PF/2 #160 pressure vessel Steel, powder-coated carrier Die-cast actuator dimension: - 9-5/8" (245 mm) wide - 6-1/2" (165 mm) high 3" DWV discharge elbow 90 with lowflex shielded coupling.

TANK & CARRIER INSTALLATION 1 IMPORTANT! The Finished Seat Height for the bowl must be determined prior to installing the carrier. Please take into account the seat height for final height dimensions. NOTE: When determining X, include the dimension for the finished floor covering (up to.5"). Distance between top of the bowl rim surface and discharge outlet centerline 5¼" (133 mm) Finished Seat Height Distance between discharge outlet centerline and raw floor X T + FSH - 5¼ = X T 2 The 2 x 6 framework must be secured firmly to the floor and ceiling for proper installation. Locate the supporting studs and reinforce with additional nails or screws. Make sure rough opening(s) are properly plumbed and square. Reinforce with additional nails or screws 3 1. Place the tank & carrier assembly into the desired location. The carrier metal frame must be flush with the front of the mounting studs to provide maximum support for the wall surface (applied later). 2. Mark the 6 anchor hole locations in the base and the 4 side mounting hole locations (2 each side) on the studs. 3. If the discharge is to be installed vertically in ground, mark the discharge elbow location on the base support. 4. Remove the tank & carrier assembly from the studs. 5. Drill six 3/16" holes in the base support; drill four 5/16" holes on the side studs where marked. 6. For vertical discharge only, bore a 4" hole into the base plate where marked. 7. Install tank & carrier into framework and secure with hardware provided. 8. Install 3" shielded coupling (provided) to connect discharge elbow to waste pipe. Side Mounting Hole Locations 5/16" (2 each side) 6 Base Anchor Holes (3/16") Horizontal Above Ground Installation Vertical In Ground Installation 6
4 1. Install a 1/2" water supply line into the 1/2" NPT drop ear elbow. NOTE: If soldering copper line, allow sufficient cooling time before proceeding. 2. Turn off the supply shutoff valve. 3. Attach a separate drain hose to the top of the shutoff valve and place the other end into a bucket or drain. 4. Turn on the main water supply, then turn the shutoff valve to the ON position and purge the main water line into a container. This will avoid clogging the filter. 5. When the water line is clear, turn shutoff valve OFF. 7. Remove drain hose from shutoff valve. 1/2" Main Water LIne Shutoff Valve with Drain Hose Connected 5 Connect the braided hose to the shutoff valve. NOTE: The braided line has a filter that may become clogged and cause slow water flow, especially in new construction. To clean filter, turn shutoff valve to OFF, disconnect braided hose, remove filter and clean. Reinstall filter and connect braided line. Braided Hose Filter Location 6 1. Install four 1/2 x 6" threaded rods (supplied) into the tank & carrier assembly. 2. Estimate the total wall thickness and add 3" for the approximate fixture rod exposed length (A). 3. Install protective clear plastic sleeves onto fixture rods. NOTE: The fixture rods are secured with locknuts. Do not install locknuts at this time. 7 1. Remove retaining ring (28) and push lever (3). 2. Slide guard box into the tank & carrier assembly. 3. Secure guard box to frame using two screws provided. 4. Snap cover into place on the box. 2 Mounting Screws 7

Install rod and turn clockwise to lock it into the bushing. 3/8" 8 1. Place actuator frame onto front of box with spring at the bottom facing outward. 2. Secure frame to lock pins with two self-tapping screws provided. 9 1. Attach the actuator panel to the lower spring, then push up and snap it over the upper edge. Test actuator for functionality. 2. Install vandal resistant screws into cement board and tiling. 3. Remove protective film. Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Push HOW THE IN-WALL PRESSURE ASSIST TANK WORKS 3 Stages of the Flush Cycle Flush Stage: The flush begins when the actuator valve is depressed, and ends when the tank has discharged all of its water through the bowl. Air Intake/Bowl Refill Stage: As water rushes through the empty tank past the fill tube to refill the bowl,it causes a Venturi effect, which draws air into the tank. The small amount of water in the air inducer cap disappears, and a suction sound occurs for 10-12 seconds. Pressurization Stage: After the flush valve seats the tank begins to fill with water. The ball in the air inducer floats against the seat in the cap and air intake stops. A small amount of water fills the cap. Water continues to fill the tank, compressing the air inside, until the force of the regulator spring is overcome and the supply is shut off. 11
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Problem Cause Corrective Action No pressurization (no flush action on actuation). Vessel pressurizes but flow never shuts off. Vessel pressurizes but toilet has poor flush. Actuator push rod is too long. actuator valve broken. Inadequate water flow. Flush valve seals damaged. Unknown. Slow leak somewhere in pressure zone. Unknown. Air is not being pulled through the air inducer cap. Bowl or sewer line is clogged. Tank drain valve door is obstructed. Lift off the actuator plate to release the force on the actuator push rod. If unit pressurizes, the push rod was holding the actuator open. Adjust push rod to shorter length. Cut if necessary. Lift off the actuator plate to release force on the actuator push rod. Actuator stem will pop out if broken. Replace cap assembly (#241.214.00.0) Turn off water supply valve. Flush toilet then unscrew the braided hose supply line from the cap inlet. Remove and clean the screen filter. Open supply valve and rinse supply line. Direct flowing water into tank shroud. Turn off water supply valve and flush toilet. Pull the cap assembly retaining pin, remove the cap assembly, and remove the flush valve piston. Inspect both seals on the flush valve piston, and replace piston if damage or wear is visible (#241.213.00.1). When cause is unknown and none of the above corrective actions solves the problem, call Geberit Technical Support at 1-800-225-7217. Ensure retaining pin is fully inserted, and securely holding down cap assembly. Listen and look for leaks. Check gaskets on cap assembly and the small check valve. If worn/damaged, replace cap assembly (#241.214.00.1). When cause is unknown and none of the above corrective actions solves the problem, call Geberit Technical Support at 1-800-225-7217. Check air intake after flush. If device does not take in air, then allow unit to pressurize. Turn off supply line and flush toilet (holding in actuator for 3 seconds). Listen for gurgling sound after flush. If gurgling sound is present, replace cap assembly (#241.214.00.1). If bowl trap is clogged, plunge toilet. If no result, snake if necessary. Geberit toilet bowl will hold 5 gallons of water or withstand 3 flushes without overflowing. Since the unit is installed in the wall and the tank is protected by a plastic shroud, the drain valve (flapper) will not be visible. Disconnect the water supply hose from the cap assembly and flow water for approximately 15 seconds into the tank shroud. This should flush out any small obstructions/debris holding the flapper open.
