    hand shower causes knocking/vibration in pipes

    I just installed the faucet for my clawfoot tub. The faucet works fine to fill the tub, but when I switch it to the hand shower, it acts really weird (knocking noise in pipes, bad vibrations, and sometimes the flow almost stops). The hand shower seems to work fine if it's all cold water, but the...

    Will this fitting leak?

    The item in the image seems to be just what I need (the brand is Lasco and the model number is 08-1089, "Bathcock Ell").

    flexible tubing instead of compression fitting?

    I have a wall mount faucet for a clawfoot tub. It's supposed to use compression fittings to connect to 1/2" copper pipe. However, I'd like to connect flexible tubing instead of the compression fittings, since I'm installing the faucet on a movable stand. The 3/4" flexible tubing that is used on...
