Thanks, Jim. I didn't see another, larger configuration but understand the point you make and that seems to make sense - that the table I found may be for the large valve, or just a maximum that was achieved in test conditions only. In any case, with the two combined 1/2 supplies for hot water...

Thanks again, Jim. All very helpful info. If I'm interpreting their specs correctly (like in the image above), other parts of their manual seem to illustrate up to 13.4gpm at 87 psi for various configurations of shower heads, body sprays, etc. The specific configuration I'm pursuing is shown in...

Thanks, Reach. Do you mean installing a tempering valve on the supply that goes to the bathroom sink/toilet; but leaving the shower supply alone? I'm not sure I understand.

Thanks, Jim - appreciate your input as always. Since I posted yesterday, I realized I have a separate 1/2" supply (H & C) nearby. Since they are not going to be used for anything else, I plan on piping them over to this area and running a dedicated cold supply to the valve (i.e. not teeing off...

Thanks for the reply and information on reducing size. I'll verify local code regarding distance. The other lives in planning are to build a shower in what is the upper left corner of the first photo. I'll of course need to reroute the water lines accordingly.

First time posting here - let me know if this should be in a different place. I'm a handy person, but my plumbing experience is limited to rerouting and soldering a few copper pipes. Thanks in advance for any and all insights. I'm in the midst of a master bath remodel and want to move the...
