Comparing EZ-FLO Models
EZ-FLO offers targeted solutions within this category, helping you pick the perfect fit for your needs. The Two-Handle Add-On Shower Diverter Bathcock (model 11129) excels as a versatile replacement for two-handle setups. Its chrome-plated design mounts easily onto existing valves, adding diverter functionality where none existed.
For slip-on convenience, the 5-3/8 Inch Slide-On Zinc Bath Tub Diverter Spout (model 15089) slides over 1/2-inch copper pipes. It comes complete with a hex wrench and set screw for secure, wobble-free installation—great for quick fixes on exposed pipes.
The 5-3/8 Inch Nose Diverter Tub Spout (model 15083) threads onto 1/2-inch IPS connections, offering a traditional nose-style diverter for built-in or concealed piping. Both spouts share the same reliable chrome finish and size, but choose the slide-on for faster installs or the nose diverter for threaded systems.
If you're weighing alternatives, brands like Moen Tub Faucets or Delta Faucet Tub Faucets provide premium touches, though EZ-FLO wins on budget-friendly reliability. All sit within our Tub Faucets lineup for easy comparison.
Common Use Cases and Installation Tips
EZ-FLO tub faucets tackle real-world scenarios like leaky diverters, outdated styles, or low-flow issues. Homeowners often use them during tub refinishing or when modernizing vintage bathrooms. Renters love the non-permanent slide-on options that avoid pipe alterations.
For installation:
- Turn off water supply and remove the old spout.
- Match your pipe type—copper slip-fit or threaded IPS.
- Secure with provided hardware; apply plumber's tape if needed for threads.
- Test for leaks at low pressure first.
These steps typically take under 30 minutes. Pair with items from Kitchen & Bath Fixtures for a full refresh.
