In the planning stages of our DIY redo of the Master Bath. It's hardly a "Master" bath at 5'3" x 9', but it is what it is! We have ordered a Sterling tub/shower with Surround. My DH has given me the task of researching/gathering information. Right now I'm trying to figure out the plumbing fixtures. I'm not sure what I need?!
The tub/ shower will get much more use as a shower, which probably doesn't mean anything regarding my question. For the shower, the only shower head will be a handheld shower. Will probably order a Hansgrohe or Grohe shower, maybe this; "Grohe 28 179 000 Relexa Top 4 Hand Shower", or this; "Grohe 28 896 000 Relexa Ultra Massage Hand Shower". Also a "Hansgrohe Showerarm Mount", and a 63" hose.
After that, I am confused as to what else I need for this shower/tub to put forth the flow of water. I want a single handle faucet that will turn on/ off, hot/cold but not pressure. What is that type of faucet called. And what it the type of "Valve" that I need. What about changing the water direction from tub to shower...is that a diverter? If so, is the diverter on the tub spout only or is there another part to that.
.What all do I need and what do you call it??????
I did order a drain overflow (thing) with the tub.
Thank you for any help you can offer...
