Solid Brass Construction
The Kingston Brass KB1638FL is a new wall-mount tub and shower faucet built from solid brass with a corrosion-resistant brushed nickel finish. It includes a pressure-balanced valve and a Duraseal washerless cartridge for reliable operation. A single lever handle meets ADA guidelines for accessible use. Standard 1/2 inch IPS connections simplify installation.
Traditional Bathrooms and Accessible Needs
This fixture suits homeowners updating a traditional-style bathroom who want a durable, code-compliant tub and shower combination. The pressure-balanced valve protects against sudden temperature changes, making it appropriate for families and aging-in-place projects. Buyers who need a deck-mount or freestanding tub filler should look at a different configuration. Those seeking a hand-shower or multi-function showerhead will require a separate model.
Wall-Mount Installation Requirements
The faucet mounts directly to the wall and connects to standard 1/2 inch IPS supply lines. At 80 PSI the spout delivers 7.0 GPM or 26.5 LPM while the showerhead flows at 1.8 GPM or 6.8 LPM. The pressure-balanced valve is included, so no separate rough-in valve purchase is needed. Ensure the wall cavity can accommodate the valve body and that local codes accept the listed flow rates.

Questions about this item
What plumbing connections must already be in the wall for the 1/2" IPS faucet to install?
The valve requires standard 1/2-inch IPS hot and cold supply lines roughed into the wall.
Will the pressure-balanced valve work with my existing 80 PSI household supply?
Yes, the valve is rated for 80 PSI and balances pressure to prevent scalding at that supply level.
How can I confirm the showerhead is delivering its rated 1.8 GPM after installation?
Run the shower at full pressure and measure the water collected in a calibrated container over one minute; it should equal 1.8 gallons.
