Restored Faucets & Valves

Reconditioned faucets and valves offer a quality alternative to imports and can add an authentic touch to a vintage fixture. DEA rebuilt valves are inspected and restored to new condition using modern materials. Reconditioned valves are guaranteed to be leak-free for 6 months from date of purchase.
   A nice feature of these older valves is they use commonly available faucet washers and stem packing. Should your valve develop a leak years down the road, these time-tested and simple designs can be restored to drip-free operation cheaply and easily..

1915 Speakman Ribcage Shower
The ultimate shower!
Ribcage showers were installed in the finest homes and mansions near the turn of the century. This unit has a single control mixing valve that rivals any made today for sophistication.
 Four separate diverter valves control the overhead rain showerhead, a handheld shower, the ‘wet’ ribs (ribs have tiny holes all the way around spraying in towards the center), and the swing-out bidet fitting at the bottom. 

Designed for installation in a tile enclosure with at least 12 GPM water supply and an 80 gal. water heater. (Definitely NOT a water saver!) Fits in a 38” alcove, with 26 3/4” minimum opening and 32” from centerline of valve to center of riser. Requires extensive plumbing accomodations, for serious restoration or antique plumbing enthusiasts only!
 Original nickel finish, unrestored.
ORC0201  8200.00 as-is SOLD
Fully restored in nickel: 19000.00 

“Cleveland” Wall Tap
Here’s something different! Intended for gravity fed systems, this valve was actually made of white brass. When it’s polished, it looks just like Nickel, but does wear off after 50 years or so... Handle appears to be Bakelite, inlet thread is actually 7/8” ballcock thread, so your plumber will have to get creative.... Wall flange to centerline of outlet is 2 13/16”

Note on spout measurements: The length measurement on faucet spouts is taken from the center of the valve body to the center of the water outlet, it is not overall length of the whole faucet.

“Republic” Handle and Trim Set
We’ve scored again! We found quite a few sets of these ‘20’s vintage “Republic” handle sets while cleaning out a defunct plumbing supply. Original stock, used, conditions vary, best goes first. This set came clean in less than 1 minute.
OF0750 Sold out
We do also have several sets of extra escutcheons. Sold in sets, 1 3/4” tall, 3 3/16” O.D., 3/4” I.D.

“Standard” Keyhole Ceramic Cross Handle
The rarest of the rare! We usually do not get more than one of these at a time, and in our last expedition, we came up with a whole box of the little devils. 3 1/4” from point to point, fits the 3/8” tapered “Standard” spline. WILL NOT fit the larger 7/16” tapered spline commonly found on “Standard” shower valves. 8 available, varying conditions, best goes first,

Haws Drinking Fountain
Completely original down to the Ceramic bubbler, these styles of faucets are tough to find. This one has been fully replated in nickel, and is ready to install on 1/2” iron pipe. Extends out just under 10”. One only, and it will not last!

Morgan Cleveland Cowboy Tub Valves
The rarest of the rare! Designed for the cowboy tub, 1/2” I.P. inlets. We’re not sure of the exact date, but the type of tub these were made for hasn’t been produced for 100 years or so, so we’re figuring 1890’s. Fully restored and replated in polished nickel. We’re probably not going to see another pair of these again... Grab them quick!
