Watco 500-FA-PVC-CP Foot Actuator Bath Drain, PVC Body, Chrome-Plated

Watco 500-FA-PVC-CP Foot Actuator Bath Drain, PVC Body, Chrome-Plated

The Watco 500-FA-PVC-CP is a foot-actuated bath waste drain assembly built with a PVC drain body and finished in chrome-plated trim. Designed for installation behind and beneath the tub, this foot actuator mechanism lets the user open and close the drain stopper by pressing a toe-touch plunger, eliminating the need for a lift-and-turn or trip-lever handle at the overflow. The PVC construction of the tubular waste components is intended for standard rough-in bath drain and overflow connections, while the chrome-plated finish is used on the visible trim surfaces that remain exposed inside the tub after installation. This part is supplied for use by licensed plumbers and contractors completing tub waste and overflow rough-in and trim work, and it is intended to pair with Watco's compatible bath waste system components.

Key Features

• Foot Actuator Operation: The stopper is opened and closed with a simple foot-press action at the drain, rather than a separate handle at the overflow plate.
• PVC Drain Body: The tubular waste and drain body components are manufactured from PVC, a lightweight, corrosion-resistant plumbing material commonly used in tub waste assemblies.
• Chrome-Plated Trim: Visible trim surfaces carry a chrome-plated finish for a consistent appearance where the assembly is exposed inside the tub.
• Designed for Rough-In Integration: The assembly is intended to be installed as part of a complete bath waste and overflow rough-in, connecting to the tub drain and overflow openings.
• Trade-Style Configuration: The foot-actuator style (FA) is one of several actuation styles Watco offers within its bath waste product line, allowing contractors to match the specified operating mechanism for a given job.
