Threaded Tub Spout Installation
If this is a shower only
installation, skip to step 4.4.
IPS (threaded) spouts are
designed to screw onto a
pipe with 1/2 inch male pipe
threads. To determine the
proper pipe length, measure
from the inside elbow shoul-
der to the wall (y) and from
the threaded adapter inside
of the tub spout to the base
of the tub spout (x), then add
1/4”. Place thread seal tape
around the pipe threading
and a sealant (plumbers putty
or caulk) around the base of
the pipe to prevent leaking
behind the wall.
