A method and apparatus for installing water control is disclosed in which a universal template is provided to permit installation in all water providing arrangements with minimal configuration modifications. Replacement begins with a rough plate through which the water pipe extends. The rough plate is adjustable to accommodate a plurality of sizes of pipes. The rough plate is secured in its position with respect to the wall and water pipe extending through the wall. A cover plate fits onto the rough plate to provide a visually appealing presentation. A cover tube fits in the trim plate and surrounds a stem housing which attaches to the water pipe extending from the wall. The cover tube includes a stop position for the stem housing to prevent hot water from being delivered that exceeds a predetermined temperature. An external handle fits over the cover tube and attaches to the stem housing to control water flow from the shower head or bath faucet. |
