Delta Faucet Co 144996C-BN Tub Shower Faucet Brushed Nickel

Product Description

The DELTA FAUCET CO 144996C-BN is a single-handle tub and shower faucet from the Windemere Series, finished in brushed nickel. It is built around a single-function pressure balance cartridge that maintains water temperature within plus or minus 1 to 3 degrees F, providing scald protection consistent with ASSE 1016 performance requirements. The valve body and trim are constructed of solid brass. A curved lever handle controls both temperature and volume. This faucet is installed by licensed plumbers in residential bathroom applications where a clean, traditional style and reliable scald protection are required.

The 144996C-BN suits residential tub and shower enclosures requiring a single-handle pressure balance configuration. The package includes a full spray raincan showerhead and a 4-13/16 inch pull-up tub spout. The valve connection sweats onto 1/2 inch copper pipe or threads onto 1/2 inch iron pipe size, giving installers flexibility with existing rough-in. This makes it suitable for both new construction and remodel projects where the rough-in plumbing is already in place.
