Will this rain shower head mount from the wall or do I need a adapter arm?

Definitely need the adapter arm. Head is designed to be parallel to the floor. I measured arm length so that the center of the head is over the center of our shower. Love the shower head; feels like a nice rain.

Although this shower head has a swivel ball, I would not recommend mounting it from a vertical wall. In our shower we mounted it from the ceiling and it works quite well. If you have no choice but to mount it from a wall, I would recommend using an adapter arm.

The ALFI brand RAIN12S-BSS is meant to be used with a wall or ceiling shower arm. You can also flush mounted but you will need to speak with your installer to accommodate it your needs.You can use the ALFI brand AB8SC-BN or AB12SC ceiling shower arms.

Looks like it is designed to hang from ceiling or an existing arm. I don't know about adjustable shower arm

Whether you have one knob that controls both the hot and cold or two separate knobs for hot and cold, this shower head will work. It connects to the overhead valve that comes out of your wall in your shower. The arm is pretty long, but I bought an additional extention arm so the head would be in the middle of my shower. I love it. Buy it. You won't be disappointed.

The pipe is the same thread as "most" if not ALL typical shower extension pipes ....if this screws into your wall, then it will since it would be the same. "Most" (have to say most) showers have 1/2 inch NPT (national pipe thread) so its a matter of removing your current semi straight shower extension pipe and head and then screw this one in, then put your head on this one. BTW : be sure you have the clearance to swing this larger ext. pipe around but I'm guessing if you need to raise it up that's its probably pretty far from the ceiling/soffit anyway.

Yes, the regular shower head mounts on the male-threaded pipe opposite the female (input) side, and the mount that came with the hand-held unit goes on the male-threaded pipe perpendicular to them. The valve handle then points down.

If you already have a shower pipe sticking out from the wall you should not need anything else. I would say try it with and without the flow restrictor in place to see what works best before permanently mounting. You would use the existing hot/cold valve(s) to control temperature. This unit just allows you to chose between the fixed or hand-held shower head or a combination of both.

For the best results use a shower arm that maintains the vertical down fall of the water. We do not recommend this type of shower head at an angle.There are straight shower arms that come out of the ceiling and there are 90-degree shower arms that come out of the wall.We use the Kohler HydroRail frequently.

I use a universal adjustable shower arm with my ALFI rain head to give it more distance from my shower wall.

No, it includes what you see in the photograph, minus the horizontal pipe that runs to the wall. So it will attach to the water pipe that comes out of your wall. You should buy some type of arm that allows you to mount the unit so that the water sprays straight down, as in my experience the unit does not perform well on an angle. Also, mine made a loud whirring noise that would alternate to a whine as the water pressure fluctuated. I sent it back.

The left-hand side threads onto the shower head pipe. Your existing shower head will thread onto the right-hand side. The 3rd connection visible on the lower left is where you would attach a flexible shower arm. This product is not very well made - would recommend this: Danze D481350RB 1/2-Inch Push Pull Shower Arm Diverter

To enjoy it fully, I suggest using and extension arm. This will allow ghe shower head to be further from the wall and be directly on top of you when you're in the shower

You could run the copper or lex up into the ceiling, and buy a simple chrome shower arm that descends to the desired hight of the rain shower. The arm that it comes with would not work out of the ceiling - but the shower head will work with any other arm.

You can buy the extension that mount on the wall. I bought one that makes a "L" shape so that it is still like a rain shower. Otherwise the water would fall differently if The head is not in flat position. Hope it helps.

A 10 inch will fit easily and 12inch should fit as well but would depend on the distance between the outlet connection and the 12 inch flange. If the distance small 1-2 inches there might be an issue. Another reviewer didn't like the height of the arm. That was one of the reasons I purchased it, to enhance the effectiveness of the rain shower.

If you are asking bout the dual ended some what bent male threaded pipe that one normally connects a shower head or such to, yes you do need that piece of pipe. most people use the original one they already have in their shower. If your shower arm has a 'ball' fitting at the outward end, then you should purchase a newer dual male ended shower arm/connection pipe.
