Abstract
A Roman tub fixture assembly for mounting a spout to the exposed spout side of a wall or deck having an exposed spout side and an opposite facing hidden side includes a receiver body which is adapted to couple to one or more water pipes located on the hidden side of the wall or deck. A flanged nut is threadably received over the body in order to mount the body within an opening in walls or decks of different thicknesses. A spout hub having a shank portion and a shoulder portion is threadably received along the shank portion within a passageway in the receiver body. The shank portion includes two cylindrically shaped sections which have different diameters, the larger diameter section having external threads and the smaller diameter section having sealing means in order to seal the space between the body and the hub at a location upstream from the threaded portion of the body passageway. The hub further includes a washer and gasket received over the larger diameter section of the shank portion to firmly secure the shoulder portion to the exposed side of the wall or deck. A spout is received over the shoulder portion of the hub in flow communication with the spout hub and receiver body.
