    Seat is relatively easy to install. Insert seat on to Seat Wrench, preferably on the shorter / heavier end, insert both Seat Wrench with Seat on it into the body of the faucet and gently push on the wrench. Keep turning CW until you feel seat is in. Remove Seat Wrench, install stem and test it.

    FYI: If you happen to use the skinny / long end of Seat Wrench than tip of the wrench may hit back wall of the faucet preventing you from twisting in the seat. Depending on the faucet, even that shorter/heavier end may be too long. For this situation, we carry extra Seat Wrench with cut off ends.
