Anybody have any ideas? Is spray foam the only option we have for underneath? The bottom of the tub has a little flex, so we can't just lay it flat on the concrete. So far spaying foam and filling the tub with water for 24 hours is the only solution we came up with.

Question, we are ready to install our Copper "drop in" tub, and was curious if anybody else has worked with copper tubs? The bottom of the tub has some flex, so we need to use foam or something to insulate and build some support for the tub. Our first thought was to use some foam...

Still tweaking, but here is the basic design I created in Photoshop. Still debating on (4) individual volume control valves or a 3 way valve. In this picture I am using a push button Toto valve on the rain head. They don't come in oil rubbed, so I am stuck with brushed nickel. I...

Still little confused. We have a choice of 3/4 or 1/2 lines to use for the thermostatic valve. If we use the 3/4 valve, we can either go with 1/2 or 3/4 volume controls. All of our devices have a 1/2 intake on them. We were thinking that 3/4 would be good, since we have the option...

After the 3/4 valve, do we use 3/4 or 1/2 volume control valves? We have to convert our 3/4 line to 1/2 at some point before the device.

Hey Guys, thanks again for all the info. We did finalize the plumbing this afternoon. We're going with the 3/4 to the valve. In the end, we're talking about 2 hours of work, to reroute the 3/4 to the shower. From what I read on this site, it's best to have too much then too little. We...

3 minute shower doesn't sound good. LOL By running only 2 items at once we would bounce between 5 gpm and 7.5 gpm. If we upgrade to a 75 gallon tank, perhaps we can get 7-10 minute showers. So I guess my final question is do we stick with 1/2 all the way through, or install a 3/4...

Just checked with the city, and our PSI averages between 65 to 85. Since we live right by a pump station and a ground level water tower, they think it's pretty high. They're sending somebody by this afternoon or in the morning, to measure it. Would that matter, if I have 80 PSI? If we...

Sounds like I should go with the 1/2 Thermostatic Valve, and just limit my shower to 2 body sprays and one other device running at the same time. Thanks

We were actually thinking about getting a new water heater anyway, so we can upgrade. Thanks

The Kohler body sprays are 2.5 gpm, we're installing either 2 or 3. We would only have them going with one other device at the same time. Since all the main lines are 3/4 to the bathroom, do you think 4-5 feet of 1/2 would hurt the pressure that much? If we bumped the 1/2 inch line back to...

We haven't bought the valves yet, but here are the options: Pressure Balancing Valve (Rite-Temp) 3/4 Valve - 13.0 gpm 1/2 Valve - 5.0 gpm or Thermostatic Valves (Master Shower) 3/4 Valve - 17.2 gpm 1/2 Valve - 10.9 gpm

From what I hear my city averages about 60 PSI.

Need some help with our bathroom remodel. We have 3/4 supply lines coming into the master bathroom (sink and shower) and about 5 feet of 1/2 inch to the bathtub. We are doing a complete remodel and the bathtub 1/2 line is closest to the new shower location. We are installing a Kohler...
