Metering and Self Closing Faucets
Last Updated: 10/02/2009

Self-Closing Faucets

Self closing faucets have the ability to automatically shut off after the operating handle is release. There are many types of self closing faucets including Single Handle Control, Two Handle Control and In-Wall Style for self closing shower valves. We carry all styles of these faucets available with a push or turn style handle.

Metering Faucets

Metering faucets are self-closing units that have an adjustable setting to control the amount of flow time. With most metering faucets, you can adjust the cartridge to run from 1 to 15 seconds (average) when activated.
