Moen Canada Introduces New Kitchen and Bath Faucet Collection

New Level(TM) Suite Features Minimalist Styling for the Modern Kitchen and Bath

As the popularity of clean, contemporary styling continues to grow, Moen Canada answers the need with a new minimalist-style faucet collection. The new Level(TM) suite features a modern, sleek design with products for both the kitchen and bath.

"We realize that homeowners today are looking for a more refined style with a look that is uncomplicated and transcends seamlessly from room to room -- especially in urban lofts and condominiums," said Carmelo Tripodi, wholesale product manager for Moen Canada. "Our new Level collection accomplishes this beautifully. Its design is strong and smart, and will complement minimal, open spaces with grace and style."

In the Bath

Available in Chrome and LifeShine® Brushed Nickel finishes, the Level collection stands apart with its clean, geometric lines. The cylindrical design of the lavatory faucet, with its tubular-shaped handle, will enhance the look of any modern bath. The faucets make a bold statement in both a single-handle, single-hole mount (both seven-inch and 12-inch to accommodate vessel sink applications), as well as a two-handle widespread style.

Moen's innovative M-PACT® valve system is available on the Level eight-inch widespread faucets, three- or four-hole Roman tub faucets and the shower package. This revolutionary valve architecture makes it easy to upgrade the style of the bath without replacing any faucet plumbing. A common valve design allows for a faucet change in just minutes: simply unscrew the handles and spout, lift them out and replace them with the new style.

Yet, Level's allure is not limited to the style of the product alone. It can also be seen in the beauty of the water flow itself. Level's lavatory faucets feature laminar aerators which produce a clean, clear natural stream of water -- echoing the look of the faucet.

Moving into the shower, the Level showerhead, with Moen's Posi-Temp® pressure balancing valve, features a large spray face -- measuring nearly four inches in diameter -- with rubber spray formers to produce a wider spray pattern for better full-body coverage. For those who prefer a handheld shower, Level offers a handheld showerhead with a sliding bar. Rounding out the bath, the Level collection features a sleek Roman Tub faucet with both a three-hole option or four-hole with diverter for a handshower.

In the Kitchen

The sleek look of Level transcends into the kitchen with a single-hole, single-mount faucet -- ideal for granite countertops and a clean, simple style. The flowing lines of its high-arching spout will give a modern kitchen an additional touch of sophistication. Plus, Level's high-arc spout allows users to easily fill large pots, pans and vases. Level kitchen faucets are available in Chrome and LifeShine® Stainless finishes.

"Designers typically want to carry a theme or look throughout the home -- especially in a condominium or loft apartment," added Tripodi. "The Level collection provides a balanced, on-trend style that will enhance contemporary decorating from the bath to the kitchen."
