We're going to open the American standard Rumson shower and single handle faucet and see what it's going to take to put it in and install it in the shower that we have in there.

Owner's manual like for a car, shower ring, and halfway gasket. And other kind of ring. shower neck extension.

"That's a shower head."

I believe that is a shower head. We're not going to use this because we're doing a shower and I believe this will be the bathtub neck, downspout. Uh oh, yeah, we're not going to use that.

"Well, you have to cap it off."

Yeah.

"It's a pretty premium feeling, it's heavy. One of the heavier ones we've had."

This is just up the top here. I believe it usually has it on the side somewhere. But nope, it's just on the plastic right there. I'm going to pull this cap to access the valve.

"Then you can't get it back on, huh?"

Not the same has these grooves that it slips onto. That's for the showerhead, I believe, yep.

"Nope, it says up there. And the hot is on the left?"

Should always be on the left. The handle.

"I just do a left, a left, right to right."

And we've got some screws, an Allen wrench for the handle. Maybe the Allen screw, an extra one, I guess. Hmm. I don't know what this brassing is, but we will find out by reading the instructions all right.

"Don't get it off balance."
