Last year I remodeled one of our bathrooms and am going to attack the last bathroom of 3 to finish this place.
I put in a nice Delta tub spout and shower head combo, a nice tub with caulkless walls and a nice clear sterling and nickel door.
Tiled the floor with real Italian marble, and matched everything else in the bathroom with equally impressive items such as the furniture vanity and a super flush toilet.
THEN - opened day. I took a shower. I hated it.
Took me an hour to get all the soap of my big head.
We have GREAT water pressure coming in. Probably too high even.
I ripped everything down and check for loose solder in the main valve possibly limiting the water flow. Nothing.
This low flow garbage sucks eggs.
SO , now that I am going to work on another project here soon. What about these systems that have a few body sprays built into them near the shut off arm? Am I going to get the same lack luster results?
I don't think there is anything I can do to increase my water pressure on the bathroom I'm upset with. From what I can tell, it's limited inside the main valve itself based on size and controls.
Suggestions for a REAL shower experience that will get me in and out in 5?
THANKS!
