Installed this model in one side (MY side) of a large 5' x 6' his and hers shower that I built as a pandemic project, having ripped out a huge tub that we never used. Love it. I regularly inspect the hole that the hoses pass thru via an access panel. No water or mold. Only problem I have had is too much flow! Without the flow restrictor, the body sprays shoot all the way to the other wall! I found that the proper wall height mounting for me is about eye level with the temperature display. Anyway, so far, so good. At least a couple of years now.

I built a tiled shower with acrylic base and added a Wayfair system, similar but not the waterfall style, and gained the confidence needed. This bathroom reno is a bit of a nightmare as I only have one bathroom, and my wife has physical disabilities, hence the need for a walk in shower. Great work, keep them coming!

Really easy to understand and usefull. Personally I would add on the top of the square in ceramics for pipes, a tinny plastic water deflector. Just in case if water comes along the wall upper than the shower head. It will protect when cleaning by scrubbing all tiles and heavy rinse....

@einsteinwasright1044 3 года назад

Mr. Thorman used a laser to check that the holes for the mounting brackets were vertically aligned. It's also a good idea, after securing the shower tower to the wall, to check that the unit is centered as desired and isn't tilted, because typically each bracket allows considerable lateral play, almost equal to the width of the shower tower.

Great video as always Jeff, I would like to add that these shower panel systems are designed for a international market and they follow International Plumbing code guidelines. That being said, the included installation directions are typically not the best resource for installing these systems, for a typical North American install I believe this video is a fantastic resource that should be included from the manufacturers selling shower units in North America.

@homoerotic85 2 года назад

Do you know what the recommended psi should be for water pressure? I have a 12" rain shower head the water pressure is ok, but I also want to add a large fixed/ hand held head. I would assume that would greatly reduce the water pressure when they're both running?

Do grey shower tiles go with tan tile floor? Or stick with all white tile with off white paint? Or stick with all earth tones?

Looking to put new install on other side of bathroom wall, then later knock out some of it. If I put some kind of shower/enclosure directly on my old lathed plaster, could I then drill Plex sized holes in wall to put PLEX directly down to basement a few feet away, and do the hookup there? I would connect the PLEX that goes down through the wall with 1/2 inch fittings INSIDE the Tower Unit, so NO leak could happen in wall, and would not need to bust up the plaster much... (OLD HOUSE)
