Hi - We are replacing the plumbing in our 1920s bathroom, and I'm trying to figure something out ahead of it becoming an issue.
Right now we have your standard tub/shower valve, tub spout with diverter, and handshower on a hose coming out of shower spout.
We are replacing it with a danze valve with diverter and tub spout, a handshower on a hose coming out of danze's wall outlet.
The handshower has a warning tag saying 'atmospheric vacuum breaker' required for installation. What is this and is it something relatively easy to work into the plumbing? Does it go behind the wall? There wasn't anything listed in the instructions and google is turning up a mix of stuff.
