Questions about this item

How does the 1-inch NPT connection affect flow in a real installation?

The 1-inch NPT inlet and outlet match standard shower piping, so the valve delivers full line pressure without a reduction fitting.

What does the stay-open stainless steel ball design cap in daily use?

The stay-open ball valve remains in the selected position until manually moved, preventing accidental shut-off during an emergency shower event.

What clearance does the 11-inch height and 3-inch depth need for horizontal or vertical mounting?

Allow at least 11 inches of vertical space and 3 inches of depth behind the wall or stanchion for the valve body and lever handle.
