Diverter valve

Jul 19, 2011 4 Replies

In a bathroom redesign I am looking for a diverter valve which will take water from temperature and volume control valve and direct it to:



- an upper shower head, or



- a lower shower head, or



- a hand held shower



I would think this would be a four port three way diverter valve. Line input is 1/2" sweated copper.



I have been unable to find the valve in the on-line resources checked.



Does anyone know if it exists and have a description for purchase?



Thanks

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I was looking for a diverter for a hand held shower. I found, through Google, the list shown above. But, why are they soooooo expensive. You can buy a whole faucet cheaper than that. I ended up with an el-cheapo plastic thing that mounts behind the main shower head. It was only about $3 or $4, so I bought 3 of them for 2 showers .... one for a spare. Of course, now that I bought the insurance (the spare) they will never break. Guess I should just put in a 2nd shower valve and hook it up to the handheld unit.

Agree those prices seem a bit steep for what you're looking for. I'd expect you can find alternates for a lot less. But they have his 4 port baby for $95 which doesn't sound that bad.

Thanks.

It appears to me that the Rohl U.5562Bo is suitable albeit it has NPT inlet and outlets.
