IPS 82068 | Water-Tite Econo Center Drain Washing Machine Outlet Box, 1/2" PEX, Quarter-Turn Valves
The IPS 82068 Water-Tite Econo Center Drain Washing Machine Outlet Box is a one-piece molded assembly engineered for efficient, code-compliant washing machine installations. It includes factory-mounted quarter-turn valves and a center drain port designed to accommodate standard residential laundry configurations.
The outlet box can be installed in standard or inverted positions, supporting top- or bottom-mounted valve orientation. Its integrated raised drip guard channels discharge water directly into the drain, helping contain potential leaks from hose or valve failures. This model features oversized knockouts for simplified pipe routing and a raised EZ Out test cap to prevent displacement during rough-in.
