First time doing this and im not sure why but i’m definetley anxious here. The whole front of shower is tiled to the ceiling and no rear access panel. Its an old 3 handle and the galvanized pipe that runs to it is clouded so bad its almost closed. Was gonna install a simmons valve. The pipe going up to the drop ear elbow is clouded galvanized also making this whole thing a major pita.
So it looks like im going to have to cut the tile out in front of the three handle valve, and cut an access out on the rear wall behind the shower. Gonna use uphonor for the install. Any suggestions before I get started? Also it appears that ill have to cut the tile around the shower head arm in order to remove old drop ear elbow and install a new one.. unless anyone has a better idea? Thanks guys for any help.
