Kingston Brass 222-225 Tub Shower Faucet

Product Description

The KINGSTON BRASS 222-225 is a single-lever pressure-balancing faucet designed for tub and shower installations. The pressure-balancing valve maintains a consistent mix of hot and cold water, protecting users from sudden temperature shifts caused by pressure changes elsewhere in the supply line. Licensed plumbers install this type of valve in both new construction and remodel projects. It fits into a standard single-handle trim configuration and is suitable for residential bathroom applications where code requires anti-scald protection.

This faucet is intended for tub and shower combinations in residential settings. A single lever controls both temperature and volume, simplifying the user interface and reducing the number of valve components behind the wall. It is a practical choice for standard bathroom rough-in scenarios and remodel work where the existing valve cavity accepts a single-handle pressure-balancing trim kit.

Key Features

• Single-lever operation controls both water temperature and flow volume
• Pressure-balancing design reduces scald risk from supply pressure fluctuations
• Suitable for tub and shower combination installations
• Compatible with standard single-handle valve rough-in configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation faucet for standard single-handle pressure-balancing tub and shower valve systems in residential plumbing.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off the water supply and depressurize the lines before beginning any valve work. Verify that the rough-in valve body is compatible with this trim before starting the installation. Do not overtighten connections to threaded or compression fittings to avoid damage to the valve body.
