    Diverter for remote handheld shower
    I am building a large shower and want to include both a standard rainhead and a handheld shower. However, I would like them to be in different locations (I am building a shower bench). What kind of diverter system can I use to control the waterflow from the handheld shower location? Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    The best way to hook up multiple outlets in one shower is to do it through a transfer valve. Most valve are designed to run three outlets and has 6 positions (one for each outlet and 3 other positions for running any 2 outlets at once). If you only have 2 outlets, hook one device (the one with highest flow) to 2 of the outlets in parallel.

Handheld shower leak [ 1 Answers ]

We just installed a new rain shower head w/a handheld shower. There's not a lot of pressure from the rain shower but at least it works. The handheld shower is a different story. For some reason, when turned on, the water will not come out. Instead, it sprays out from the back of the handle...

Shower Diverter [ 1 Answers ]

The water in my shower comes out mostly from the tub faucet and not the shower faucet (which I assume is a problem with the diverter) but what I don't understand is that the water pouring out of the tub end is scalding hot, while the water coming out of the shower end is only warm. Then they both...
