CAUTION:

Always turn water off before disassembling the valve. Open valve handle to relieve water

pressure and to insure that complete water shut-off has been accomplished.

Before turning water on during either rough-in or trim-out, make sure that cartridge retainer clip is in place. The cartridge and retainer clip were properly installed and tested before leaving the factory. Although it is unlikely, it is never- theless possible that through the handling of the valve by any number of persons the retainer clip may not be properly installed. This should be carefully checked at time of rough-in and trim-out. If the retainer clip is not properly installed, water pressure could force the cartridge out of the casting. Personal injury or water damage to the premises could result.

Moen has established itself as a leading brand in the realm of kitchen and bathroom fixtures, and its TL183CP, TL183P, TL182CP, TL182, and TL183 faucets are testament to the brand’s commitment to quality, innovation, and style. Each model showcases unique features and cutting-edge technologies that enhance user experience while ensuring aesthetic appeal.

The Moen TL183 series boasts a sleek, modern design characterized by its smooth lines and polished finishes, seamlessly integrating into various decor styles. The faucets are available in chrome, which provides a reflective, shiny surface, as well as other finishes, allowing homeowners to choose based on personal preference and kitchen or bathroom scheme.

A standout feature of these faucets is Moen’s Spot Resist technology. This innovative coating helps to minimize water spots and fingerprints, keeping the faucet looking clean and allowing for easy maintenance. This is particularly valuable in busy kitchens or bathrooms where aesthetics can quickly deteriorate.

The TL183 and TL182 models come equipped with the Duralock Quick Connect system. This technology simplifies installation, allowing homeowners to easily connect and disconnect the water supply lines without the need for additional tools. This not only saves time during installation but also provides peace of mind knowing that the connections are secure.

Another noteworthy characteristic is the incorporation of Moen’s Reflex system in the TL183P and TL182CP models. This advanced feature offers smooth operation of the spray head, allowing for greater flexibility and range of motion. The spray head retracts seamlessly, which prevents tangling and ensures that the user can easily switch between different spray modes, including a powerful spray for cleaning and a gentle stream for filling pots.

All models in the TL183 series are designed for comfort and usability, featuring ergonomic handles that allow for easy temperature adjustment. The inclusion of the lasting and durable cartridge technology ensures that the faucets maintain consistent performance over time without the risk of leaks.

In summary, the Moen TL183CP, TL183P, TL182CP, TL182, and TL183 faucets embody the perfect blend of style, technology, and functionality. With features like Spot Resist technology, Duralock Quick Connect, and the Reflex system, these faucets not only enhance the beauty of your sinks but also elevate the everyday experience of your kitchen or bathroom. They are a prime example of how innovation in design can lead to practical solutions in home interiors.
