KOHLER K-97339-NA Mounting Block for Kohler Artifacts, Purist, Stillness, Margaux, Kelston and Composed Freestanding Bath Fillers 2.25 x 4.69 x 4.69 inches

Our contractor secured the mounting block to the floor floor joists before the tub arrived, but he still had to cut a hole in the ceiling below to complete the tub installation. Thats a minor inconvenience but was not unexpected during our bathroom remodel. Theres absolutely no wobble with the filler. Be sure to follow mounting instructions BEFORE you install the bath tub so the filler is positioned correctly. We had to loosen the four mounting screws and rotate the tub filler so the hand sprayer dripped in the tub and not on the floor. The mounting block provides four stainless steel slots that facilitate rotating the filler to the correct position. Be sure to not lose the locking washers if you remove a screw. I used a paper clip to fish out the washers from the mounting block collar.

This is a solid piece of plumbing. Nothing wrong with it at all. One star off for being annoying that it isnt included with the faucet. This is not optional - you cant use a different mounting block, after all. Just increase the price to include the mounting block, Kohler.

Relatively easy to install and holds the filler steady on the floor.

Quality product

I received this item with cement on top that’s crazy!!

I needed the part.

A hefty piece of Brass -- If youre using copper plumbing, prefab your connections before connecting them - this hunk of brass is a huge heatsink!

While it was my laziness that lead to the purchase of thus item. It is if not a part of the correct faucet system and mixing valve set.

The plumber had no trouble putting in the Kohler mounting block for the freestanding bath faucet but we had taken up the old tile floor before putting down hardwood so he didn’t have to cut out our bathroom floor to install the mounting block under the subfloor.It works perfectly and our bath faucet which is quite heavy is quite sturdy. We are very happy.

An important piece to include when order the spout and hand shower. Great quality.
