Hello
We just had our bathroom renovated and the plumber installed a new American Standard " cadet model 1675 " tub and shower set. When you turn on the tap to fill the tub some water runs out of the shower head even though the diverter is down.I called American Standard and they said that the distance from the centre of the valve body to the centre of the shower arm connection has to be a minimum 48 inches and even though it does not say that in the instructions that it is common plumber knowledge. Can somebody help me out here please? The water pressure isn't too high and the plumber says the valve body isn't installed upside down. I don't think they tested their installation and now the drywalling and tile is all complete and we have this problem.
Thanks!
Paul
