Abstract: A faucet 10 includes a brass support 42 mounted in a precise location in a housing 12 of the faucet. A slot 60 is formed in the brass support and receives a tab 64 of a color code ring 36 as the ring is positioned on top of a tower 18 of the housing 12 to properly locate the ring relative to the housing and to preclude rotation relative thereto. A shroud cover 19 is secured to the brass support 42 above the ring 60 to capture the ring between the cover and the top of the tower 18 and thereby preclude axial movement of the ring. Exterior surfaces 38 and 40 of the fixed ring 36 are formed with contrasting colors, such as "red" and "blue," which are clearly visible on opposite sides of the faucet 10. A handle 20 of the faucet 10 is located above the shroud cover 19 and is mounted for movement relative to the housing 12, the color code ring 36 and the shroud cover.
