: : How about if I install shut-off valves below the tub where I can access them through the apron, and run the 3/4 pipe 3 feet from both those shut-off valves to the Grohe thermostatic valve ? The Grohe valves and trim will be mounted in the wall at about 45 inches height. The spout will actually be a Kohler Laminar Flow Ceiling Mount K-923 -- it looks really unusual and leaves me a clear tub deck :D : Sounds good to me, Terry : : On the mini-arrestor issue, where should they go ? : : Would I use Tees rather than elbows to go from vertical to horizontal into the Grohe valve, with the arrestors standing up ? : Kirk, : The mini-resters have pistons in them and cannot water log. You can install them in any position. Terry Thanks Terry.
