It is not on the valve piece. We are looking for a brushed nickel finish and can't find any sets without the faucet. |
Good morning Mr. Miller, (May I call you DB?)
Before we take our relationship to the next level. Let's get on the same page with definitions, ( you'll have to pardon me, you're my first post and I feel chatty.)
Tub Faucet does not = Tub spout.
Having cleared that little matter up. The valve body should have a 1/2" threaded opening in the bottom of the valve body. To change your tub and shower valve into a shower valve simply purchase a a brass 1/2" threaded plug and some teflon tape, screw in the plug and you're free to rub-a-dub in style. Cheers, Tom
