{"product_id":"elkay-lk397c-knee-action-valve-wall-mount-chrome","title":"Elkay LK397C Knee Action Valve Wall Mount Chrome","description":"\u003ch3\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ELKAY LK397C is a knee-operated wall-mount faucet valve designed for hands-free water control in demanding plumbing environments. The valve accepts 1\/2 inch female IPS inlets and delivers flow through a 3\/8 inch IPS spout outlet. Chrome plating provides corrosion resistance and a clean finished appearance. The kit ships complete with two stops, two valves, two wall flanges, and an enameled iron wall bracket, giving the installer everything needed for a full rough-in without sourcing additional hardware. Licensed plumbers and facilities maintenance technicians are the primary installers for this type of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LK397C is suited for wall-mounted plumbing applications in healthcare facilities, foodservice kitchens, commercial bathrooms, school classrooms, and laundry rooms where hands-free or reduced-contact operation is a priority. Knee actuation keeps hands away from the valve body during operation, which aligns with sanitation requirements common in food prep and clinical wash stations. The valve works in both residential and light commercial installations where a standard 1\/2 inch IPS supply connection is present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnee-action operation for hands-free, hygienic water control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch female IPS inlets for compatibility with standard supply lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch IPS spout outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChrome-plated finish for durability and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnameled iron wall bracket included for secure wall mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete mounting package: two stops, two valves, and two wall flanges included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style wall-mount knee action valve replacement or new installation fitting for standard 1\/2 inch IPS plumbing supply systems in residential and commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes.
