I'm building a new shower as part of my bathroom renovation. I currently have a moentrol valve, and 1 moen 3 function diverter valve. (2 distinct and 1 shared, with push/pull for on/off) The shower has shower head, hand shower, and rain shower head from ceiling. I assume I'll need to pick up one more diverter valve to make this work.
My initial thought is to go from the moenrol to diverter A, diverting between hand shower and diverter B. With diverter B diverting the shower head and rain shower. Second thought is to tee off the moentrol to each diverter valve, with A diverting the hand shower and shower head, and B diverting the same shower head and rain shower. Either way, it sounds like it might be confusing to operate. Part of me thinks that if I need to pick up a second diverter valve anyhow, then maybe I should pick up a body spray while I'm at it, so then the third thought would be to tee off the moentrol with diverter A diverting the shower head and rain shower, diverter B diverting the hand shower and body spray.
I'm pretty sure I don't have to flow to operate all sprays at once, but might get two going at once. I'll be using both the tub and shower ports on the moentrol for maximum flow. I'm sorta leaning towards third thought. Would it be odd to have a single body spray? It seems most "vertical spas" have multiple body sprays. It looks like Moen doesn't to offer a massaging or multi-function body spray, any recommendations on a good massaging body spray?
Thoughts or advise? Any comments appreciated.
