How is this item installed? I'm considering purchasing this time, however I'm afraid if I want to remove it I will be left with a mark on the wall.

1. You must use BOTH the double faced tape AND the entire tube of silicone adhesive for your installation. The tape must be there to hold the unit while the silicone adhesive cures (in 24 hours). The tape alone will not hold the unit once it is filled. 2. Do NOT FILL the unit for 24 hours after installation. The silicone can easily support much more than the weight of the full Dispenser, but not until it has cured completely. The curing time for this adhesive is 24 hours. 3. The wall surface where the un it is to be mounted must be CLEAN and DRY! If the adhesive is bonding to anything other than a clean, dry wall surface, the unit will not stay on the wall. If any surface contaminates are present, the adhesive tries to bond to the contaminants resulting in an improper bond. Surface contaminants such as: dust or dirt grease or oil wax (especially prevalent on molded fiberglass shower surrounds where it is used in the manufacturing process to release from the unit) water detergent or soap or their residue loose particles or skin and body oils will prevent the silicone adhesive from making a strong bond on the wall surface. (you have also a video showing how to install without leaving trace if removed http://www.dispenser-amenities.com/support/ this is the link bye

There's a separate bracket that gets mounted to the wall (or other surface), the light then slides down over this and there is a set screw that you tighten. I've had mine installed for years without any issues.

When I first opened the box, I recall I tried to remove those screws, too, as it seemed the intuitive thing to do. It's not. Those screws stay in the unit. After looking at the instructions and the wall hanger more closely I figured it out, but it's been so long that I don't recall exactly what I did. Sorry-that's the best I can do...

This particular wall art is not easily removable and reusable. I purchased another one from a different company (I don't recall which one) & that one was easily removable and I placed it somewhere else.

I don't think it will leave any trace. I had to remove part of one of mine (because I put it in the wrong spot) and it didn't leave any sticky residue. It is not like tape. I think you'd be fine putting it up on a wall for removal later. BTW I LOVE mine. I actually have two up, same design, just one right and one left facing. They are beautiful! Very easy to put up if you have a helper and follow the directions. I highly recommend watching some YouTude videos before you put it up. They are very helpful. Also, a great company to work with. My piece I messed up, they replaced right away and for no charge. Love it! A great all around experience. Let me know if you have any questions. I don't think it will leave any trace.

The sticker is black so that depends on how dark the wall is and your lighting. FYI the sticker is not 1 or 2 sheets it is many many pieces. ie every spot is a separate piece. Definitely not an easy install!!!

I would be happy if I were you. That window breaker thingy is completely useless, and has a tendency to scratch everything. I was thinking about removing it myself, but did not because I assumed it would be hard to. I'll give it a try now.

I can't quite understand your question/comment. My purchase is securely on the wall and looks beautiful. It is truly wall art. I love mine and have had many comment s and compliments about it.

I sent it back and they sent me a new item that contained the additional acrylic piece. However, the additional acrylic piece is not very strong. Next time I would buy the cheaper version without the wall attachment and use two large L brackets from a hardware store to mount it to the wall.

Just peel and stick. I used a credit card to give some force when putting it on, becaus I have a slightly textured wall. Had a couple of places that loosened up, but just took my hand and pushed it back on. Love Love Love it.

Mine has been on for a couple years, and I want to try to keep it on as long as possible, so I haven't tried pulling it up recently....but, while I was installing it I had to pull it up a couple times to move it around, and I found that if I pulled up a little corner of it and started to spray water underneath it would pull up much easier, once the adhesive dries, it holds on really well, but it loosens if it's wet, so I think with some water, a good scraping tool and maybe some adhesive remover to wipe down the counter with after you'd be fine...a little tip I found helpful, when applying to the front or side edges of your counter, don't trim it flush with the edge, allow some hang over, and either glue or staple it to the underside of the counter (the product adhesive won't stick to a rough surface), that gives you a little bit to grab onto to start the removing process, because starting with a flush edge is probably going to require some scraping, which could damage the counters edges.

EZ to do yourself if you've got another body to help position it for installation. in a window it is straight forward, if you need to cut a hole in the wall that is another matter. Any handyman should be able to help with the install if you don't want to do it... nice unit.

Yes,I did....go to Home Depot or the like & get some 2 inch wide Industrial Strength Velcro & put a full ength strip top & bottom or even around all 4 sides & do the matching strips on your wall or wherever & you're good to go. Tip; once you apply the strips to the wall & to the Unit let both fully adhere over 24 hours say,before you mount the piece. Technically you don't have to but I find the Velcro sticky side adheres better long term if you don't immediately mount the Unit.Good Luck,CJ

where did you install it by-near kitchen, hallway, door, furnace or ???? Possibly you have placed it in a bad location and it appears to be triggering it off. I would take it down from where it is and move it without it being installed on the wall/ceiling to see if that corrects the issue. Is it a new unit? Only other thing is call or email first alert if that doesn't work. Hope this helps. Have a good day!

It's not exactly easy to remove. But with some engineering it could be secured. I have had mine for a year or so and still have it. Without securing it further than install.

Tack it to the wall. If you go to Carl's website there's a great diagram that explains it. Very easy and looks great, no wrinkles.
