Is there a standard depth of how a nipple should be installed for a shower head and tub spout?
I have a sterling tub surround and a fancy shower/tub valve set (brand is Embather. The picture based documentation is not clear at all.
The valve has a plastic encasing that shows how it should be placed relative to the wall surface. But I'm struggling a bit figuring out how to place the tub spout nipple (using a shark bite drop ear elbow and bringing PEX down from the valve). Should the nipple be flush with the surround surface?
I'm using copper going UP to a shark but drop war elbow to the shower spout. This will come out of the wall through drywall. Again, should the nipple be flush with the drywall?
Lastly, this valve kit has a handheld shower contraption that will be placed above the handle and to the right. Again, I'll run copper up to another drop ear where I have the same question.
