Shower Heads Per Line

nick114920

How many shower heads can i install per 3/4 in line?? I tried using 2 heads on a shower a few years back and had no pressure to the one head... what do these guys do in these huge showers where you see 4 and 5 heads to a shower?? Is there something i add to boost pressure???

rex

you will need to loop all the heads together

Yes, you pipe it correctly. A Moen shower valve is not designed for multi outlet installation, but a 3/4 or 1 inch thermostatic mixing vale, combined with 3/4 inch control valves for each outlet is designed for that application and will work just fine.

nick114920

wont i also loose volume through a standard shower faucet because its 1/2 inside those damn things??

KillerToiletSpider

You don't have to do anything, but if you want it to work, you need to size it properly, a plumber would be a good way to achieve the sizing needed.

I could tell you but I'd have to kill you then. This is a cornerstone secret of the Cult of the Custodians of Civilization. Hire one of our licensed bretheren and balance shall be restored to your shower!

Yes I know, hire a plumber, you have no idea what you are doing. To sell a service you really should know what you are selling, or is that to complicated for you to understand?

I need to complete a 5-year apprenticeship which includes ~500 classroom hours and 5000 on the job training. You want to stumble across a freakin' website because you drastically underbid me and be led by the nose on how to do the job! Go Frig Yourself!

A master plumber is worth a million a year to a good plumbing company and that's why master plumbers work at ho depot.

Wait...that doesn't make sense.

You really are a sorry poor excuse of a tradesman. Now run along and go play. And remember no one cares about you or your simple problems that obviously have you beat. Maybe you should go back to just being a complete moron because you are not welcome here, Taa-wat

Do your poor customer a favor and hire a pro!

Double-A

Well, congratulations on solving your problem by enlisting free advice from a person willing to prostitute his experience and license to the likes of a publicly owned whore-monger.

I hope you and your mark are sincerely proud of the shower that only cost you the small price of insulting at least eight consummate professionals.

Bleh, don't feed the trolls, folks.
