Washing Machine Outlet Box

The Water-tite 85716 provides a secure supply connection for residential laundry installations. It features a transparent body with integrated hammer arresters to reduce water hammer noise. Brass valves with quarter-turn operation control hot and cold water flow. The unit meets UPC and ASME A112.18.1 standards for plumbing safety.

Suits Standard Laundry Hook-Ups

This box fits typical 1/2 inch PEX supply lines and includes locknuts, valves and mounting flanges for straightforward installation. Builders needing a drain connection or a different inlet type should look at other models. The faceplate dimensions are fixed at 10-3/16 by 8-13/16 inches, so verify rough-in space before purchasing.

1/2 Inch PEX Inlet Connection

The defining specification is the 1/2 inch PEX inlet connection identified as type 1807. This determines compatibility with the supply piping used on site. If the project uses copper, CPVC or a different PEX fitting system, this outlet box will not connect directly without additional adapters.

Questions about this item

What pipe size and connection type do I need to supply the valves on this Water-tite 85716 outlet box?

The box uses 1/2 inch PEX inlets with 1/4-turn brass valves, so you need 1/2 inch PEX tubing and compatible fittings to connect the hot and cold supply lines.

Will the 10-3/16 inch wide faceplate cover the rough opening left by my old plastic laundry box?

The faceplate measures 10-13/16 inches wide by 8-13/16 inches high, which is larger than many standard plastic boxes, so it will typically cover the existing cut-out without patching.

How can I confirm the hammer arresters are functioning after I install the 85716 box?

Run a fill cycle and listen for water-hammer banging when the valves snap shut; the integrated arresters should suppress the noise, indicating they are absorbing the pressure surge as designed.
