Guardian G1629 Emergency Shower, Recess Mounted, Stainless Steel Shower Head

Product Description

The Guardian Equipment G1629 shower is designed for recessed mounting in a suspended or finished ceiling as shown here (panel not included). It has a corrosion-resistant stainless steel shower head and face plate. The unit is activated by pulling the handle downward, and the shower will remain on by itself until the rod is pushed upward. The G1627 is similar except it uses rings on pull chains to achieve the activation and deactivation functions.
