The brass function block rests on rubber seals, reducing pipe vibrations transferred to the wall. The trim carrier plate attaches to the iBox housing, not the function block, minimizing noise transfer to the finished wall. The PVC housing and rubber seals reduce in-wall vibrations and resulting noise compared to lower-cost options. Rubber seals on the iBox housing and carrier plate ensure a water-tight installation, directing any potential leaks into the shower compartment rather than the wall.

The high-grade brass core is resistant to corrosion, providing long-lasting reliability in various environments. This component is backed by the reputation of a trusted brand, ensuring exceptional performance and durability, making it an ideal choice for those who seek quality and dependability in their equipment.

The housing design mounts securely to wall studs and accommodates multiple wall depths and materials to fit your space. Hansgrohe recommends a licensed plumber install this product. The package contains standard 3/4-inch pipe inlets that can be fit to 1/2-inch pipe inlets with the purchase of a separate reducer. Note the maximum working pressure is 65 psi.
