OATEY A9226 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What comes in the Oatey Dearborn A9226 bath waste and overflow full kit?
A9226 is a full kit, meaning the complete plastic tubular bath waste and overflow assembly rather than a trim-only replacement: PVC tubular body with foam rubber gaskets, slip nut connections, and the chrome trip lever faceplate with a two hole pattern plus the stopper linkage. Body components are black PVC; the visible trim is chrome.
2) Will the A9226 trip lever faceplate cover my existing overflow plate screw holes?
The faceplate is a two hole trip lever style, so it lands on an overflow with two screw holes on the standard Dearborn pattern. If the tub you are working on has a single center screw overflow plate or a cable drive trim, this plate will not line up and you want a matching one hole faceplate instead.
3) Does the Oatey A9226 work with an existing Dearborn tub drain rough-in?
Yes. The A9226 is built for the Dearborn Traditional bath waste and overflow system, so it drops onto that rough-in without reworking the waste arm or tee.
4) Is a trip lever waste better than a lift-and-turn or toe-touch stopper for a rental unit?
A trip lever like the A9226 puts the control on the overflow faceplate and uses an internal plunger, so tenants never have to reach into the drain and there is no stopper sticking up in the tub floor to break off. Lift-and-turn and toe-touch types are simpler and cheaper to service, but the moving part sits in the drain opening where it gets abused. For turnover work on tubs already roughed for Dearborn Traditional, the trip lever kit keeps the existing hole pattern.
5) Do I need glue or solvent cement to install the Oatey A9226 PVC bath waste?
No cement needed at the joints. The A9226 connects with slip nuts and foam rubber gaskets, so it assembles and disassembles by hand or with a spud wrench. That also means it can be pulled apart later to clear the waste arm without cutting pipe.
6) Is the plastic Dearborn A9226 waste kit acceptable for multi-family work, or should I use brass tubular?
The A9226 is PVC tubular, which is standard for residential and multi-family tub wastes and is lighter and corrosion free compared with brass. Brass tubular is the choice where a jurisdiction or a job spec calls for metallic waste piping, or where the assembly is exposed and has to take abuse. For concealed tub wastes in apartment work, the PVC kit is the usual pick.
7) What is the Oatey part number for the black Dearborn full kit with chrome trip lever trim?
Order it as Oatey A9226. That number covers the Dearborn full kit with black PVC tubular and chrome trip lever trim.
8) How much does the Oatey A9226 bath waste kit weigh?
About 1.715 lb for the complete kit, so it is light enough to carry a stack of them on a turnover route without a cart.
