I am remodeling my master shower (48x34). I would like to put in a rain shower, a main shower, a hand spray (or combined main/hand spray) and 4/6 body sprays. We have the biggest residential tankless hot water system you can buy in the basement and the shower is on the 2nd level. We have a well system with pressure set between 60 and 80 psi. I have quite the water filtration system that includes a contact tank, an iron filter, a charcoal filter and a water softener - all heavy duty but I'm sure this impacts my pressure. The pressure out of our shower head isn't that good - could be the shower head as the pressure out of the garden hose is perfect and that is water after the filtration system.
Anyway that was just a little background. I want to put in the best possible system since I am doing everything myself. I want to maximize the pressure and I'm not worried about amount of water used - although I do understand I am limited to a 2 inch drain. I'm thinking I need to run the entire 3/4 inch pipe (not far away) into my shower and have 3/4 inch piping all they way to the diverter which will then deliver 1/2 to each outlet.
Anyone see any problems with this or have concerns? I am having a hard time finding a complete system with my required specs. I may have to piece meal this together the best I can. Comments/tips welcome.
