American Standard 8888069.243 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread connections does the American Standard 8888069 square wall supply use?
Two different threads, one on each end. The wall side is 1/2 inch (13 mm) NPT female, so it threads onto a standard 1/2 inch NPT male nipple coming out of the wall. The outlet is 1/2 inch (13 mm) NPSM male hose thread, which is what a handshower hose screws onto. NPSM is a straight hose thread and is not interchangeable with NPT, so the hose you pair with it has to be a 1/2 inch NPSM handshower hose.
2) Do I need a separate check valve or backflow device with this wall supply elbow?
No separate part is needed. The 8888069 square wall supply has a check valve built in, so the backflow protection normally required on a handshower drop is handled inside the elbow itself.
3) What is a square wall supply elbow for, and do I need one with a handshower?
It is the wall outlet that converts the plumbing stub-out into a hose connection. The 8888069 is a square brass elbow that threads onto 1/2 inch NPT pipe in the wall and gives you a 1/2 inch NPSM male hose thread facing out, plus a built-in check valve. You need one any time a handshower hose comes straight off the wall rather than off a tub spout diverter or a slide bar. It is intended for shower and tub applications.
4) What finishes does the American Standard 8888069 wall supply come in, and can I match it to the rest of the trim?
Five finishes: chrome (8888069.002), polished nickel (8888069.013), matte black (8888069.243), brushed nickel (8888069.295), and Brushed Cool Sunrise (8888069.GN0). Order the suffix that matches the valve trim and handshower already going in the opening, since the elbow sits in plain sight on the wall.
5) Is a hose or handshower included with the 8888069 wall supply?
No. The 8888069 is the wall supply elbow only, with the check valve built in. The handshower and its 1/2 inch NPSM hose are ordered separately, as is the valve and trim behind the wall.
6) Is the American Standard square wall supply meant for residential or commercial showers?
American Standard classes the 8888069 as a residential part, within its luxury line. For a multi-family or hospitality retrofit it will still thread onto the same 1/2 inch NPT stub-out, but spec teams standardizing a commercial property should weigh that classification.
