Hi,
I am a new member here but have been able to get many questions answered over the years by searching through current and old threads. This time I was not able to find what I was looking for so decided to come out of the shadows to ask the experts here as the advice I have gotten prior has always worked well.
Initially the question was going to be simply what is the difference between a "y" swing check valve and a straight body swing check valve however I figured since I was taking the time to post a question, I might as well get advice on the entire project since it is a little unusual and I might be overlooking something important.
I am currently in the beginning stages of a bathroom remodel with a large his and hers shower. The initial plan was to have a shower head, hand held and possibly body sprays at each station but then my wife decided she wanted a 20" Grohe flush mount rainshower head (27288000) as well. I was initially planning to have it connected to her side but then thought it might be nice to use myself from time to time. This is where the check valve comes in. The plan is to feed both shower controls to the ceiling shower head through a check valve at each station so that either side can power the rainshower.
Thoughts? Crazy, impossible, genius or somewhere in between?
Thanks,
Jay
