I have two older showers in my house where I would like to replace the shower valves with something more contemporary/higher quality but would like to know if there are any limitations concerning the existing setup.
The first shower has a valve I don't see too much of anymore. It is single handle, where you pull the handle straight out to start water flow, then turn (rotate) the handle right or left for temp. control.
The second shower has this valve: http://www.HD.com/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xhs...splay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053
If I wanted to replace either one of these valves with a single handle lever such as this Grohe: http://www.grohecatalog.com/product/35014/
I just prefer a single lever where you lift up to flow water then move back and forth for temp. control. I just think they're easier to adjust. A preference thing. Given the scenario(s), would it be possible to replace the existing valves with a single lever such as the Grohe or similar? Thanks for any input.
