DXV Luxury Portfolio Expands with Contemporary Bath Fixtures, Traditional Kitchen Bridge Faucet

Clean Design Lines Distinguish Freestanding Tub, Sleek Lavatories, Shower System; Antique-Style Two-Handle Kitchen Faucet Showcases Intricate Styling

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (June 4, 2015) ? Flagship luxury kitchen and bath brand DXV by American Standard is expanding two popular collections that bring luxury living to residences and hospitality settings: the sleek Equility bath faucets and fixtures, and the timeless Victorian kitchen faucets, offering enhanced design choices and endless possibilities for personalization.

Equility Collection
A celebration of minimalist geometry, the Equility suite now offers a complete selection of graceful, contemporary fixtures and faucets for any size bath, from small powder rooms to the most spacious master baths. This quietly stylish collection easily transforms the bathroom into an elegant, meditative retreat.

The engaging new products in this suite include a more expansive soaking tub, two sophisticated lavatories with a choice of mounting options, and a boldly geometric thermostatic shower system.

The roomier profile of the new Equility freestanding tub offers a full, luxurious soaking experience and gracefully sloped interior walls that serenely contour the body. The canvas white tub features high gloss acrylic construction with fiberglass reinforcement to provide a durable, easy to clean surface. An integrated drain is included with this inviting stand-alone tub.

Two sophisticated new lavatories with alternate mounting options have been added to the contemporary-styled Equility collection. The first new offering is a sweeping 47-inch trough lavatory that is particularly ideal for a shared bathroom. This wall-mount bathroom trough sink can beautifully showcase distinctive single-hole faucets. Also joining the collection is a chic 33-inch lavatory that offers the option of being wall-mounted or installed as a sleek console lavatory with metal legs. The console, with its single-hole faucet configuration, is available in polished chrome and brushed nickel.

Both bathroom lavatories are characterized by dramatic, yet restrained, design and are available in canvas white. They feature fine fire clay construction, and include a ceramic drain cap and discreetly hidden overflows.

A new luxury thermostatic shower system completes the additions to the minimalist Equility collection. Characterized by clean design lines, this shower system makes a bold statement in any bathroom setting. The ½ and ¾-inch thermostatic valve and on/off/volume control trims are available in a choice of three designer finishes: polished chrome, brushed nickel, and matte black. To deliver a personalized shower experience at every use, the thermostatic valves will carefully regulate the preferred temperature to prevent scalding, while the high-quality cast brass valve body and ceramic disc valve cartridge provide a lifetime of worry-free, drip-free performance.

Victorian Bridge Kitchen Faucet
Classically beautiful and distinguished by authentic historic details, this quintessential new bridge faucet design expands the popular DXV Victorian collection of luxury kitchen faucets. Providing added convenience to suit almost any kitchen task, this traditional faucet features a 5 ¼-inch spout that swivels a full 360 degrees for optimum usage.

This Victorian bridge faucet is available in three striking finishes that include polished chrome, ultra-steel and carbon bronze. Delivering a maximum flow rate of 1.8 gallons per minute (gpm), this stately faucet is equipped with ceramic disc valve cartridges for a lifetime of water-efficient, drip-free performance and is lead free as defined under applicable federal and state laws.

Reflecting the grandeur and ornamentation of classic European design suffused with intricate details inspired by the Middle East and Asia, this bridge faucet joins the existing Victorian collection consisting of single lever (with and without side spray), pull-out, pull-down, and bar faucet models.

The new Equility freestanding tub, Equility lavatories, and the Victorian kitchen bridge faucet will be available in July 2015. The Equility console and thermostatic shower system will be in showrooms in September 2015.

These new DXV elements will be sold through an exclusive network of American Standard showrooms and dealers across North America. For more information, visit www.dxv.com or call (800) 227-2734.
