    Shower head Only
    I'm installing a Moen shower/tub valve but will only have a shower head, no tub filler. It says to cap the lower outlet if not using. I've got a stub-out to put in there. Does it matter how long this piece is? Will it affect water pressure in any way, create noise, etc?

    Thank you,
    Toma

    No!

    No! This is how we convert tub and shower valve to only shower valves. Don't forget to Teflon Tape the threads. Good luck. Tom
