Newport Brass 5-2492BP/56

The Newport Brass 5-912BP/15 is a pressure balance tub and shower valve designed to provide a consistent water temperature and protect against scalding. Its pressure-balancing mechanism compensates for water pressure fluctuations, maintaining the desired temperature within ±2°F (1°C). Even if the cold water supply fails, the valve's anti-scald feature reduces the flow rate to a safe level. The valve also incorporates built-in check valves to prevent cross-flow between the hot and cold water supplies. Installation requires positioning the valve with the 1/2" shower outlet facing up and ensuring a secure connection to the studs. Before installing the trim, the stop ring must be properly installed to prevent disengagement of the cartridge. The valve's temperature limit stop allows for adjustment of the maximum hot water temperature. Troubleshooting tips are provided to address common issues such as dripping, insufficient water flow, or incorrect temperature. Overall, the Newport Brass 5-912BP/15 is engineered to deliver consistent temperature control and safety in your shower system.
