Symmons Y & Diverter Valves
Symmons Y & Diverter Valves: Precision Flow Control for Bath & Shower Systems
When it comes to directing water flow with precision and durability, Symmons Industries has built a well-earned reputation in the professional plumbing world. Their lineup of Y & Diverter Valves reflects decades of engineering focus on reliable, commercial-grade performance — whether you're outfitting a residential shower or a demanding multi-outlet bath system.
What Makes Symmons Diverter Valves Stand Out
Symmons diverter valves are built around a commitment to material integrity and functional simplicity. Sturdy brass construction is at the core of these products, providing the corrosion resistance and long service life that professional plumbers and contractors rely on. Symmons designs its diverter bodies with lead-free metal components, a key consideration for potable water applications where compliance with modern plumbing codes matters.
The most notable product in this lineup is the Temptrol Dual Outlet Diverter Valve, a 3-port design engineered to handle shared water flow across two outlets. Diverter valves like this one offer defined detent positions — meaning the valve clicks into place with intention, reducing the risk of accidental mid-position settings that can waste water or reduce performance. The valve is rated to withstand pressures up to 125 PSI, making it a dependable choice for a wide range of residential and light-commercial installations.
Flexible Connection Options
Symmons diverter valve bodies are designed with versatility in mind. Connection options include 1/2" male IPS and 1/2" female sweat inlets and outlets, giving installers the flexibility to work with standard supply line configurations without the need for additional adapters. This dual-connection compatibility is a practical feature that saves time on the job.
Compatibility with the Broader Symmons Ecosystem
Symmons diverter valve bodies are designed to integrate seamlessly with the brand's broader valve ecosystem, including their well-known Temptrol and Safetymix® pressure-balancing valve platforms. This makes them a natural fit when upgrading or repairing an existing Symmons shower system, ensuring consistent performance and simplified parts sourcing. For anyone already working within a Symmons-based installation, these diverter bodies provide a straightforward, OEM-compatible solution.
