I have a Single handle Monticello tub/shower faucet. Trying to figure out Moen's drawing for the setup.
At the top of the drawing there is: "1/2" min CC; 5/8" min IPS"
I would think IPS is Iron Pipe Size. But that doesn't make sense as the valve is set up for 1/2" pipe, and there's the same inidication at the upper left for 1 7/8" and 2".
What does the CC and IPS mean? I can't find anything explaining the terms.
And am I understanding it correctly: I read it as I can have the centerline of the valve a max of 2 1/2" back from the finished wall surface. Am I interpreting the diagram correctly?
What do I use for the actual tub faucet pipe? Elsewhere, it's specified that a 1/2" threaded pipe should stick out 4 1/16" from the finished wall for the spout. Can I use copper and solder a threaded fitting at the end, or should I use galvanized for this?
