Product Description
Collection: Otella
Profile: Architectural Blend of Square & Round
The Otella Thermostat with 3-Way Diverter & Off Position Linear Trim Kit offers precise temperature control in a refined, contemporary design. A square escutcheon paired with a round handle creates the Otella collection’s distinctive balance of geometric and soft forms, while the narrow escutcheon provides a slimmer, more streamlined appearance. The integrated three-way diverter with an off position allows smooth selection between multiple water outlets.
Crafted from durable materials and finished with time-tested finishes, it delivers reliable everyday performance with clean, modern styling. The trim is also available in additional contrast finish options, allowing designers and homeowners to create a more customized and visually dynamic look.
Function & Control Layout
This trim kit features two independently functioning handles for intuitive and consistent operation:
-
Bottom handle – Thermostatic temperature control
- Regulates and maintains water temperature, helping prevent sudden temperature changes caused by fluctuations in water pressure.
-
Top handle – 3-way diverter with off position
- Controls water flow between shower functions and includes integrated off positions, allowing water to be shut off directly from the trim.
Valve Compatibility (Important)
Must be ordered separately. The trim set will not function without the shower valve. This trim kit is designed to be paired only with the following thermostatic valves:
- F973AVO
-
F973ANSVO (non-shared, California-compliant)
- In this configuration, only one function operates at a time, with a dedicated off position between each function selection.
Not compatible with F943-VO
Due to the narrow trim plate design, this trim kit must not be paired with the F943-VO valve. The plaster guard on the F943-VO is wider than the trim plate and cannot be fully concealed once installed.
Construction
- Solid brass construction throughout for strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability.
