Chicago Faucets Launches Auto-Drain Retrofit Trim Plate

This plate minimizes the need for wall reconstruction during valve replacements and eliminates the need for facility managers to do complex tile patching.

Chicago Faucets announces its Auto-Drain Retrofit Trim Plate, which supports Auto-Drain shower installations in healthcare, senior care, and other environments where occupant safety and water management are critical. The retrofit-friendly plate minimizes wall reconstruction during valve replacements and eliminates the need for complex tile patching. Facility managers can modernize existing fixed shower systems in occupied buildings with minimal downtime and disruption.

Using the Auto-Drain system protects patient health by automatically draining standing water from the valve assembly immediately, cutting down on the stagnant conditions required for bacterial growth and biofilm amplification.
