I know there was some concerns about valve availability a little while back. I just received this update for some ETAs and possible work-arounds where the lead times are extensive. Hope this helps.
I wanted to share information on all of our delayed/backordered roughs valves. I also provided workarounds. Please see below:
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Volume Controls:
GUVC16 Counterclockwise – Out of stock, but we have some in transit to us that just shipped out via air shipping. Should have stock in the next few weeks. If client needs Asap, send a guvc17 and a cartridge(40-52336-34644). We only have 7 of these cartridges available. We have more of the second item number for it, in transit(26-10851-72370). So if we run out of the 40-52336-34644, the client can still install the GUVC17 and the handle will just open clockwise. At a later that, they can be shipped a 26-10851-72370 to make their handle open properly.
GUVC17 Clockwise – Over 350 in stock.
GUVC18 Counterclockwise – We have some in transit to us that just shipped out via air shipping. Should have stock in the next few weeks.
GUVC19 Clockwise – We have some in transit to us that just shipped out via air shipping. Should have stock in the next few weeks.
*Both of these are in transit together.
If the client needs the GUVC18 and GUVC19 right away, they can use the GUVC17 or GUV16 alternative above. The plumber would just need to use a reducer to install the 3/4″ volume controls to their 1/2″ piping.
Rough for Wall mounted faucets:
GULV27(Used with Cross or Wheel Handle Lavatory Faucet) – The item number was just updated to a new one in our system. Please use item # 26-70940-94489 when ordering, not 26-21988-67977.
*Some of our kit faucets, still will add the old item number to the order. Please be cautious when entering these wall mounted faucet kits. You might need to enter just the components and exchange it out for the new item number listed above. PD and IM are working on getting this corrected.
GUTH71, GUTH72 and GUTH73s:
GUTH71 – Universal 1/2″ Thermostatic Valve with Integrated Volume Control Valve – These are backordered and they do not have an exact date on when these will be in. A workaround would be to order a GUTH56(26-50123-12619) and a GUVC18(26-03622-54601). Keep in mind, we do not have the GUVC18s in stock for a few weeks and you would need to use the work around for that item. The substituted valves must be installed with a distance of 5 7/8″s apart from the centerline of one spline to the centerline of the other spline. This is indicated on the attached document.
GUTH72 – Universal 1/2″ Thermostatic Valve with Integrated Two Way Diverter with Shutoff Valve – We have 20 on hand, but there are 21 open orders. We do not have an exact date of when these will be in next. A work around would be to order a GUTH56(26-50123-12619) and a GUDV14(26-79186-91093). The substituted valves must be installed with a distance of 5 7/8″s apart from the centerline of one spline to the centerline of the other spline. This is indicated on the attached document.
GUTH73 – Universal 1/2″ Thermostatic Valve with Integrated Three Way Diverter with Shutoff Valve – We have 12 of these in stock.
