Hi,
My local plumbing store has provided me the following diverter valve: Delta R11000 and T11886, 3 port diverter valve.
I will have a hand shower head and rain showerhead. So this valve works fine for that. Problem arises is that for local building code, if I have 2 showerheads on at the same time I need to upgrade the drain plumbing to 2" from 1.5" which is one expensive option for me to have to do...so it's not an option.
If the diverter valve prevented both showerheads from being on at the same time then all is good. From what I can tell, the above valve does not have a shutoff; you either have port A, Port B or ports A & B open. Is there a way to use this valve to get a shutoff position between ports A and B so that the options are port A, port B, Ports A & B closed instead?
If not, is there something else that I could use?
thanks,
Fred
