Option: Lever Handle for ASSE 1016-Compliant Type 8 T/P Balancing Commercial Shower Valve

Acorn Controls Inside

Option -LVR provides a lever handle for the ASSE 1016-Compliant Type 8 T/P balancing commercial shower valve, which automatically mixes hot and cold water to deliver blended water within a specified range. In the event of cold water failure, the thermostatic motor virtually shuts off the flow of hot water.

This shower valve meets the most stringent performance criteria for temperature and pressure changes, as defined by ASSE 1016 (Rev. 2011), providing uncompromised bather safety and comfort for any tub/shower application.

Key Benefits

  • Temperature/Pressure balancing shower valve
  • Ligature resistance adds another layer of bather safety

Although designed and built for the challenges of commercial and industrial facilities, it is cost-competitive with high-end Pressure Balancing Valves. The valve combination T/P Valve allows even the most cost-sensitive properties to meet the budget without the scalding risk associated with type P Valves.

USED IN COMMERCIAL, INSTITUTIONAL, AND INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

The trim of this valve features single lever handle, eliminating the possibility of a pinching the bather's fingers while closing the valve. design.
