SKU WG8H83_8
Designed as a universal rough-in valve body, this unit is compatible with a broad range of shower trim kits that use 13/14 Series single-function handles and 17/17 T Series dual-function handles. It supports standard installation with no additional adjustments to trim kits required, simplifying retrofits and new installations alike. The connection port accepts standard 1/2 in. metal pipe, IPS, and PEX fittings, enabling flexible plumbing options for shower valve assemblies. The body is constructed from brass, offering enduring strength, corrosion resistance, and wear performance in wet environments. A square plastic protective cover ships with the unit to guide alignment during wall installation and to help ensure the trim kit seats correctly against the finished wall. A pressure test cap is included to allow testing of valve operation before final wall assembly, which helps identify leaks or misalignment early in the process. Precision manufacturing methods and quality control contribute to reliable fit with the intended trim kit, reducing chances of mismatch during installation. The design aims to be adaptable within typical shower valve configurations, supporting long-term performance under daily use. When selecting this valve body, consider compatible trim kits and standard plumbing connections to ensure a straightforward, durable installation. This combination promotes reliable operation and easier maintenance over time.
