Moen tl182bc Shower Faucet Trim Kit Brushed Chrome

Product Description

The MOEN tl182bc is a single-handle shower faucet trim kit in a brushed chrome finish, designed for residential wall-mount installations. This trim-only kit pairs with the Moen M-PACT common valve system, giving technicians the ability to update shower trim in the future without disturbing existing rough-in plumbing. The lever handle allows straightforward water adjustment, and the 2.5-inch diameter spray head delivers a full spray pattern at a flow rate of 2.5 gallons per minute. The brushed chrome finish provides the look of chrome with reduced reflective glare. Certifications include ANSI A112.18.1 and CSA B125.1 compliance, and the trim meets ADA specifications.

The tl182bc is suited for residential shower applications where an M-PACT compatible Posi-Temp pressure-balancing control valve is already roughed in. The wall-mount design uses a 1/2-inch CC faucet connection. The escutcheon measures 6.5 inches in height and 6.5 inches in width, covering a standard shower wall opening. The shower arm reach is 6 inches. This kit is appropriate for new construction, remodel, or trim replacement work where the valve body remains in place.

Installation Notes

Installation of shower faucet trim is typically performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off the water supply to the shower circuit before beginning any trim removal or installation work.

Work should comply with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC requirements.
