PRODUCT FEATURES
While other products may gather unsightly mineral build-up over time, Delta soft rubber Touch-Clean® spray holes allow any mineral residue to simply be wiped away for an instantly refreshed look – with no need for soaking or the aid of chemical cleaners. Matte Black makes a statement in your space, cultivating a sophisticated air and coordinating flawlessly with most other fixtures and accents. With bright tones, Matte Black is undeniably modern with a strong contrast, but it can complement traditional or transitional spaces just as well when paired against warm neutrals for a rustic feel akin to cast iron. Delta WaterSense labeled faucets, showers and toilets use at least 20% less water than the industry standard—saving you money without compromising performance.

Hello, does Delta make shower drains that match their shower fixtures. I am specifically looking for a square black stainless shower drain assembly.

Asked by: DJ12c
Hello DJ12c, Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet model 52159-KS Single-Setting Metal Raincan Shower Head. I apologize for any difficulty finding this information. We are happy to help! Unfortunately, we do not currently carry shower drains in black stainless. I apologize for any inconvenience. Shower pans and tub drain holes tend to standard sizing, so the drains are often universal. However, we recommend checking the dimensions of your shower base. Please reach out at customerservice@deltafaucet.com or 1-800-345-DELTA if you have any questions or need additional assistance. Thank you for being a loyal Delta Faucet customer. Best regards, Bryan

What is the difference other than price on the 52159-CZ-PR25 rain head compared to the CBKB2288?  Also can they be flush mounted to ceiling? If so what arm / part is needed? Thanks

Asked by: Paul
Hi Paul, Thank you for your question about the Delta Faucet model 52159-CZ-PR25. It includes Lumicoat to protect more from buildup and stains. The SKU CBKB2288 in Champagne bronze is the model 52159-CZ25 and does not include a Lumicoat finish. We carry a 3" ceiling mount shower arm U4996-CZ. https://www.deltafaucet.com/bathroom/product/U4996-CZ.html Please reach out with any additional questions!
