Overhead Shower Install

nuckphoto
9 years ago

We are doing a remodel of our bathroom. The bathroom will be completely gutted.

I want to run a water line from the valve to install an overhead rain style shower head. This is a shower only, no tub. It will have a wall shower head/handheld plus the over head one.

I was thinking of buying a shower/tub valve and routing the tub line overhead for the rain style shower head. I'm assuming this will work?

Should I use copper pipe or will plastic pipe (PEX?) work?

Any recommendations for a certain brand/type of valve? Are the constant temp valves any good?

Any advice will be appreciated.

Thank you.
