Water-tite 87862 Round Gas Outlet Box
The Water-tite 87862 is a round gas outlet box designed for residential or light commercial gas piping installations. It features a single-lever brass valve with a 1/2 inch female CSST connection for direct appliance hookup. The unit includes the valve and locknut for secure mounting. It carries CSA certification for code-compliant safety.
Replaces surface-mounted shutoff valves
This box replaces exposed shutoff valves and loose fittings by recessing the gas connection into the wall cavity. The upgrade is worth it when a cleaner, flush-mount appearance is required or when local code mandates a recessed outlet box for movable appliances. It consolidates the valve and connection point into a single listed assembly.
Brass valve holds pressure under continuous flow
The brass valve body and CSA-listed construction maintain a gas-tight seal during sustained appliance operation. The single-lever design allows quick shutoff without wear from frequent cycling. The 3-1/2 inch box depth fits standard stud cavities while protecting the valve from impact. No drain port means the box stays sealed against debris.

Questions about this item
What clearance does the 8 in. round outlet box need for wall or ceiling mounting?
The round box measures 8 in. wide by 8 in. high and 3-1/2 in. deep, so allow at least that cavity space behind the finished surface for the brass body and locknut.
Which step is often missed when connecting the 1/2 in. female CSST valve during installation?
Installers sometimes forget to tighten the included locknut onto the valve shank before pressure-testing, leaving the connection loose inside the wall cavity.
What ongoing check does the CSA-listed brass valve require after installation?
Periodically operate the single-lever handle through its full range to confirm smooth movement and verify no gas odour develops at the valve seat over time.
