How high above the tub should you mount the bracket? Assuming a standard shower curtain (6ft tall curtain?)

This was used for a different application, so I cannot answer your question.

I hang it the same height as a normal shower curtain, but if you are concerned you can put the curtain on the rod and hold it up to check the length of the curtain and make sure it will still go where you want it to go.

I mounted ours 60" (centered) above the top edge of tub and it works great w/ 6 ft curtain. Could even go a 3-4 inches higher if necessary. Good luck!

For my tub the rod was 1.5 inches short for the dry wall opening above the tub/shower. For me installing the unit with a 1"x4" piece of hard wood on each side as a spacer will work. The wood is actually 0.75" thick so it makes up for the rod being short and gives a firmer surface to attach to.

My tub is 58". The mounting brackets are 3" each, You insert the rod into the bracket and screw the rod in place which allows you to adjust the total length of the system. I think you should be good based upon what I can tell from mine. BTW, we are very pleased with the rods.

Our bathtub is a plastic "tub enclosure", so the sides and rear do not go all the way to the ceiling. We installed the rotator rod just above the top of the plastic, and the shower curtain and liner were plenty long to take care of it. LOVE our rod.

We have a standard 8' ceiling and have a 4" extension pipe for the shower head ceiling mount. It's amazing. We're 5'8" and 6'1" and love it.

I have a standard curtain in mine and works fine. It will depend how high you hang the rod though.

I put mine over my shower. It fit but wouldn't stay if a lot of weight was on it

Mine is mounted in a 8 foot ceiling bathroom with a built in tub, using standard length curtains. The vertical rod that attaches to the ceiling is adjustable. I ran a pipe out of the spigot for the shower head that I clamped the horizontal mount to, but it can bolt to the wall. Hope that helps.

I installed mine 70 inches from the floor, so I had to cut a few inches off the length of the shower curtain.

I mounted mine above the bath tub. It can be mounted around the shower if the water is not flowing on it. For this kind of applications you should use approved devices.

I could not use the regular base mount because my jalousies are flush to ceiling with no end wall. When I saw it, I'd guess 4" to be safe. If you're uncertain as I was, it's safer to consult an expert. I went ahead and adapted mounts but the job is clearly unprofessional. I wanted washable curtains and rods are not meant for the building. A professional job wouldn't have cost much more.

No, just use longer lightweight shower curtains. When we shoe curtains are pulled in, but otherwise we have them sort of spread outward over tub edges. It actually looks more authentic and Victorian for our historic house. This one worked for us, high ceilings and all.

Depends on the curtain, wall mounting bracket is adjustable, I'm not sure of the range.

I used toggle bolts in the ceiling to mount mine. I am just using two mounted vertically, to support a shower curtain rod.

Basically the unit mounts over your existing plumbing. The bottom bracket mounts over the shower valve, which is where you control the temperature and flow of the water. The top valve mounts over the existing pipe where your shower head comes out of. We had a faucet for our bath tub, so we left that in place. There was probably 3-4 ft between the brackets for us.

I mounted mine a half inch outside the vertical shower surround. Also be mindful of possible interference with bathroom door. Love the extra space.

The brackets that are included with the rod only allow a 3" to 4" clearance from the wall. If, like me, you wanted to install blackout curtains over a set of vertical blinds on a sliding glass door, you should search for a bracket that will allow up to 6" or 7" inch clearance. I did manage to find them on Amazon as well.
