Question 1

Will this satisfy the code requirement for an anti-scald valve here in the US?

Accepted Answer

I'm looking @ a picture of a universal iBox. You need the iBox & the anti-scald valve made by Hansgrohe. This valve has a maximum water temp that meets code. It also has a manual overide button, should the adults enjoy something hotter.

Question 2

Good day   I wanna know if the iBox can be used with a system of individual keys in the shower.   Thank you for your attention   Regards   Carlos Mora

Accepted Answer

I don't know what "keys" are in shower terminology. If you are translating from the spanish word "llaves", the words in English are "valves" or "faucets", depending on which physical part of the system you're talking about. We use "grifo" to mean the whole faucet, which would include the "tap" portion of the faucet (where the water exits) as opposed to the valve handles, hot and cold, which we refer to as "llaves". Which do you mean?

Question 3

Does this come with the screws that hold the cartridge in the housing? They aren’t in the box and I can’t find them online. Any help?

Accepted Answer

Screws that came with my shower handle secured the handle to the valve. Your not supposed to unscrew the white plastic seal cap from the shower rough before your ready to install the shower handle. Then my handle came with everything needed. Obviously I had a handgrohe shower handle also

Question 4

I want to buy TWO of this fixtures/iBox TODAY. One for Shower stall and the other for bathtub with Shower. These valves will it do it?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this is exactly what I did.  I have shower separate from my bath tub. I installed one in each.  Because each iBox has 4 holes (one is the input for hot, the other for cold, and the other for the output for the shower head), I ended up with an extra hole, and I did not want to wast it, so I added one more outlet for a handheld shower head for my bathtub and shower stall.  All my fixtures are from Hansgrohe.  I'm not a plumber, I'm a woman with no plumbing experience, and I could not afford to replace the entire plumbing for my house, so I went to Home Depot and bought a book and I did the entire plumbing myself and bought good quality materials.  The iBox is easy to install. Just make sure to put white paste and white plummers tape on the threaded holes, and ask a male to tighten them.  Mine kept leaking because I was too weak to tighten them. I am only 100 pounds.
