Find the Right Valve for Your Tub & Shower System
Behind every reliable, high-performing shower or bath is a quality valve system. At Riverbend Home, our selection of tub and shower valves includes essential rough-in components designed to manage water pressure, temperature regulation, and flow direction. Whether you're installing a new system or upgrading an old one, choose from pressure-balance valves, thermostatic valves, and diverter valves to create a shower experience that’s as safe as it is comfortable. Our valves are built for long-term durability, easy integration, and compatibility with the industry’s most trusted faucet trim kits.
Pressure-Balance Valves for Safety & Comfort
Protect against sudden temperature changes with pressure-balance valves, which automatically adjust to changes in hot or cold water pressure. These valves are ideal for households with fluctuating water supply and are required by modern building codes for safe use.
Thermostatic Valves for Precise Temperature Control
If you want exact temperature regulation and advanced control, thermostatic valves allow you to set and maintain a specific water temperature—even when other fixtures are in use. These valves are popular in luxury showers and dual-function systems.
Diverter Valves for Multi-Function Showers
Direct water flow to different outlets—like a showerhead, hand shower, or tub spout—with a diverter valve. Choose between 2-way, 3-way, and transfer valves to match your setup and elevate your shower experience.
Built to Pair with Popular Trim Kits
Our valves are engineered for seamless compatibility with faucet trim kits from leading brands including Delta, Moen, Grohe, Brizo, and Kohler. Always confirm compatibility to ensure proper function and fit.
FAQs: Tub & Shower Valves
What is the difference between a pressure-balance and a thermostatic valve?
A pressure-balance valve maintains a consistent temperature by adjusting water pressure, while a thermostatic valve controls temperature directly and offers more precise settings.
Do I need a diverter valve for a hand shower or tub spout?
Yes. If you have multiple water outlets, a diverter valve is needed to control where the water flows. A 3-way diverter allows for even more flexibility.
Are these valves compatible with all trim kits?
Valves are typically brand- and model-specific. Check that your valve matches the trim kit’s specifications, or choose trim designed for that particular valve system.
Can I install a valve myself, or do I need a plumber?
Valve installation often requires access behind the wall and secure plumbing connections, so professional installation is recommended, especially for new construction or valve replacements.
Are your valves compliant with modern plumbing codes?
Yes. Our pressure-balance and thermostatic valves meet or exceed plumbing code requirements for temperature regulation and safety.
