Product Identity

The Kingston Brass K188A9 is a 5-1/4 inch diverter tub spout finished in Satin Nickel and Polished Brass. It features a standard 1/2 inch IPS inlet and a 1-3/4 inch spout opening for straightforward replacement. The classic theme coordinates with the Made To Match collection for a cohesive bathroom update.

Ideal Use Cases

This spout suits homeowners refreshing a tub or shower combination who need a diverter to redirect water to a showerhead. The two-tone finish fits traditional or transitional decors. Buyers seeking a non-diverter spout or a different connection type such as slip-fit should look at other models.

Sustained Operation

Brass construction is designed for a lifetime of performance under daily water flow and pressure cycles. The diverter mechanism withstands repeated engagement without leaking. The corrosion-resistant finish maintains its appearance through continuous exposure to moisture and cleaning agents.

Questions about this item

What type of pipe connection does the 1/2" IPS inlet on the K188A9 diverter tub spout require?

The spout connects to a standard 1/2-inch IPS threaded pipe nipple extending from the wall.

Will the 1-3/4" spout opening on this Kingston Brass model fit my existing slip-on tub spout adapter?

No, this model uses a threaded 1/2" IPS inlet and is not compatible with slip-on adapters designed for copper pipe.

How can I verify the diverter on the K188A9 is functioning correctly after installation?

Turn on the water and pull the diverter knob; flow should stop from the spout and redirect fully to the shower head without leaking.
