Single-handle, plastic RV shower valve lets you add a handheld shower set (sold separately) to complete your shower setup. It also has a vacuum breaker that prevents contaminated water from flowing backward into your clean water supply.
Features:
Specs:
The vacuum breaker lets you attach a handheld shower set (sold separately) to make cleaning mud and sand off the kids, pets, and shower walls even easier. The vacuum breaker also has an anti-siphon device - a small air hole that drains water back out of the hose to prevent your dirty shower water from contaminating your clean water supply.
Using the standard NPSM inlet shanks, slide the new valve and deck plate in place through the already existing mounting holes. Hand-tighten the included mounting nuts against the backside of the wall, and connect the hot and cold water lines. The use of tub and tile caulk (not included) is required.

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we take a look at the Empire Faucets RV shower valve with the vacuum breaker, has the single teacup handle, and a nice white finish. Now this is a wall mount RV shower valve that'll let you upgrade the bathroom shower valve in your RV or your camper. You can see this one has a top mount vacuum breaker on it. And that allows you to attach a handheld shower set to your faucet. Now the shower set, we do sell separately on our website.
And what's nice with this vacuum breaker, it helps prevent the backflow contamination of your clean water supply. This is a single handle design, you can see, with the nice teacup style handle. And it does use a washerless ball valve design, provides a nice smooth turning action, and prevents unwanted dripping. It is a three-quarter turn single mixing valve, provides easy temperature control. And they do use a diamond ceramic disc cartridge, which is maintenance free.
That disc cartridge creates a nice watertight seal when the faucet is turned off. This is a nice non metallic ABS plastic construction. You can see it has a nice white color. We mentioned it's a wall-mount two hole installation. The inlet shanks do have the standard male NPSM connections.
Now the deck plate and the two mounting nuts are included for installation. Basically what you would do is when you install this, put your deck plate on there, take your mounting nuts, thread those on, and snug them down to hold the faucet in place. Same on this one. Now it does require tile and tub caulk, that is not included. You would have to supply that when you install this.
A few specs on this, if we do the overall dimensions, the overall width, one end to the other, is right at six and a quarter inches wide, total height from the bottom to the top of the vacuum breaker, three and a half inches tall, and the depth we're going to measure from the front here to where it goes mounts up against the wall. So your overall depth is going to be right at four and five eights inches. The distance between the inlet shanks has a standard, center to center, four inches. And the inlet shank diameter on these, there's a half an inch. And again, to show you, there's the off position, and then as you turn it, it goes from cold, all the way up to hot. But that should do it for the review on this Empire Faucets, RV shower valve with the vacuum breaker, the single teacup handle and the nice white finish..

Single-handle, plastic RV shower valve lets you add a handheld shower set (sold separately) to complete your shower setup. It also has a vacuum breaker that prevents contaminated water from flowing backward into your clean water supply.This is a great replacement faucet. I wanted a one handle option and this one works great, no more wasting water to get it to the correct temp. Would definitely recommend. Fast shipping and good customer service.
With only a 6 gallon hot water tank it's very important to spend the least amount of time getting the water the right temperature. A two valve setup takes too long and once you get the one valve set you go to that setting everytime. It's definitely a game changer. I'm very pleased with the valve
I originally had a two handle faucet and it was difficult to control the hot and cold water. The single unit makes it much easier to control the water temperature. The unit was easy to install.
It's great to have a single handle faucet. I can turn it to the desired temperature, note the position, and turn it off and on to take my shower without the stop valve building up heat when it's shut off.
I love this tea cup handle faucet. So much that I bought one for my outdoor shower. Very smooth operation and with easy to install.
Nice faucet and very easy to install. I had had bought 2 other faucets and one had a little scratch on it and I mentioned it it the review and customer service sent me an email offering to replace it. I appreciate businesses that are concerned for their customers. I chose not to have it replaced as the scratch was not that big of a deal. Their products are very good and customer service is top notch. Thank you etrailer.
Great product. My wife says finally we have water temperature control. Just like home....

I. LOVE. IT!! Most RV showerheads are much small in diameter than this one.
Service center said it would be weeks to get this part, got it in two days and made the repair myself. Saved a lot of time and money. The site was very descriptive and the part was a perfect match.
Nice item..Good price.
