PRODUCT FEATURES:
Brass Casting: Highest quality faucet material for durability &
long life.
Wax Thermostatic Unit: Permits shuttle valve to move
between the hot and cold seat to maintain the pre-selected
constant water temperature.
Back to Back Capable: Hot and cold can be reversed.
Spring-Loaded Check Valves: When the hot and cold water
enters the fitting, both supplies pass through the spring-loaded
check valves to prevent cross flow of hot and cold water.
Integrated Stop Valves: Ensure easy cleaning and servicing.
Adjustable Hot Limit Safety Stop: Limits the amount of hot
water allowed to mix with cold. Reduces the risk of accidental
scalding. Maximum water temperature limit may be reduced to
104 or 109 degrees Fahrenheit.
