we're re-doing a bathroom in our new house. the shower requires a supply line larger than the existing supply. the existing supply lines run through the slab. I do not want to chisel up the slab to r

Is this the "Niagara Falls" model shower? A 1" pipe is much larger than is normally used for pipes leading to a bathroom. A 2" pipe is larger than almost any house would have coming in from the stree

it's got a total of six shower 'heads' with one box controlling all of them. pretty snazzy if you can feed the thing. I figure 2" is overkill, but if I can only do this once I'll do it. I'm sure once

If the water supply to the house is so restricted, the high-flow shower probably can't work very well. It just won't get enough water. Fifty feet from the well to the house does not sound all that fa

I agree. To me, low water pressure would be too big of a quality of life issue to ignore. I would be upset every morning in the shower until it was fixed. And because of that, I'd be willing to spend

Where I live I have been looking at new construction in the city. Even the largest house I looked at only had a 3/4" water connection coming from the city, this house was over 10,000 sqFT with I beli

I know our rental was only 1/2" from the street. nonetheless, the fixture requires 1" in, so I thought I'd go overkill now so I don't have to later (I suspect the plans for the master bath include so

Our new home in Michigan has Pex water lines. The only concern I read when I researched it was that it should be kept out of the sun. Otherwise it is easy to run, makes good joints, etc. -Paul ______
