SteveM - Sorry for the late reply, I got into the remodel and forgot about my post here. I ended up with a Delta Multichoice R22000 which will have plenty of flow IMO, even with 1/2" pex. I mounted it directly across the tub from where you get into it, see pictures. I ran pex to the valve and...

Yes it is common for a diverter between shower head and handheld shower. I'm going to use it to divert between shower and tub. I'm just brainstorming if this is a problem or not, e.g. not code, or something else. Have you used it for that purpose? Thanks for the reply.

Looking for advice/expertise - kids bathroom remodel, everything ripped out and starting fresh. I would like for my kids to be able to turn on the shower and have it default to the shower, not the tub. Seems easy enough but I've spent days scouring forums/internet looking for a standardized...
