The Delta Cassidy 597LF-MPU is a traditionally styled single-handle bathroom faucet that blends elegant curved lines with modern Delta technology. DIAMOND Seal Technology uses a ceramic disc valve that performs like new for life, outlasting the industry standard by 2x and reducing leak points. The faucet is WaterSense certified at 1.2 GPM, saving at least 20% more water than the industry baseline without sacrificing performance. The included metal push pop-up drain assembly matches the faucet finish and is ADA compliant. InnoFlex PEX supply lines are pre-attached for a simplified installation. The rigid spout does not swivel, keeping the look clean and formal. Fits 1- or 3-hole 4-inch installations — an optional deck plate (RP102236PC) is available separately for 3-hole setups.
Does the Cassidy 597LF-MPU include a drain assembly?
Yes. The MPU suffix stands for Metal Push-Up and the faucet ships with a metal push pop-up drain assembly in the matching finish. It is ADA compliant, simple to operate with a push mechanism, and easy to clean. No separate drain purchase is required.
Is the deck plate included for 3-hole sink installations?
No. The 597LF-MPU is designed for single-hole installations and ships with everything needed for that setup. For 3-hole sinks, the optional deck plate RP102236PC must be purchased separately. It is available in all matching Cassidy finishes.
What is the flow rate and is this faucet WaterSense certified?
The 597LF-MPU flows at 1.2 GPM at 60 psi, which is EPA WaterSense certified. This uses at least 20% less water than the 1.5 GPM industry baseline, qualifying it for rebates in water-conservation programs and California Green Building Standards.
Does the spout swivel on the Cassidy single-handle faucet?
No. The Cassidy 597LF-MPU has a rigid fixed spout that does not swivel. This is typical for bathroom lavatory faucets, unlike kitchen faucets. The fixed design contributes to the formal, traditional aesthetic of the Cassidy collection.
What finish options are available for the Cassidy single-handle bathroom faucet?
Six finishes are available: Chrome (597LF-MPU), Champagne Bronze (597LF-CZMPU), Brilliance Stainless (597LF-SSMPU), Matte Black (597LF-BLMPU), Polished Nickel (597LF-PNMPU), and Venetian Bronze (597LF-RBMPU). All include the matching-finish metal pop-up drain assembly.
