need a shower for guests- the tub from the 1970âs has a nozzle coming out of the wall and knobs coming out of wall on either side -will this work?

You need a water spout that can be removed from the wall. The pole fits with the water spout. If you can remove old one you should be good to go.

As long as you have t he faucet (where the water comes out) and two knobs for hot and cold to operate the tub this shower will work.

It worked for ours. That is how our tub is with the nozzle and knobs on each side. And my husband said it was super easy to install. We put up the hoop shower curtain and now we have a shower. Good luck.

I did not handle the installation myself, my son did it. He had no problem and only took a minute. All you have to do is take off the old head and screw on the new one. It should fit all standard showers.

No... the one control knob turns to use the shower head, jets or hose separately. We didn't hook up the tub faucet so I can't answer for that choice.

The trim unit works on the tub only also. It's the valve behind this unit that determines shower vs tub.

You can get one this Grohe 13273000 Eurosmart Cosmo Tub Spout with Diverter, Chrome but not sure your bathtub needs it...

Both sides of my shower were not plumb. They were out in the middle. Not by much. What I did was filled the space with silicone. It has worked wonderfully, and I have had no issues.

need to purchase a mixer separately for the shower to function,Model is Hansgrohe 16181181 Exposed Thermostatic Basic Set.

No. It replaces all of the valves in your shower/tub, so you need just a hot and cold pipe sticking out of the wall.

Not sure. My shower is separate from the bath tub, so in my case it was shower only. It might depend on how your plumbing and pipes are configured.

My 1980's bidet had the old school vacuum breaker and a whole maze of brass plumbing off the back of it. I stripped it all off and replaced it with this unit and it works fine. The shower feature works, the mixing valve/diverter works to change the flow to the rim and there are no problems. Save yourself some hassle though, toss or recycle the 3" 1/4 inch copper tubes that they include to connect the the valves to the mixing valve. Keep the compression fittings and use them on a short length of 1/4" outer diameter polyethylene tubing, it is MUCH easier to fit into the small space needed.

Yes, absolutely. The unit actually draws water from the shower output up top. So your original tub/shower diverter knob allows you to either use the bottom tub faucet or the shower unit.

You have to go to Home Depot and ask for a solution. Usually everything in the US is standardized so it shouldn't be a problem. But if it doesn't fit then you have to either replace the shower pipe ( that's unlikely) or you can use an adaptor on the pipe. We had done this before where there r two different ends to a small pipe n they fit the shower pipe and the shore head. Hope this help

You need a diverter. This provides water to both and the lever on the tub faucet shuts that off and forces it to the shower head.

It looks like many of the other nickel shower heads and bathroom wall fixtures. You can go to home depot just to check them out. I had random faucet handles and towel racks that were all nickel, and it matched them well.

As Brandon said, it's pretty straight forward. Unscrew the old shower head (use channel locks or a monkey wrench). Once you take the old shower head off, you'll see just the pipe sticking out of the wall with a "threaded" end. Use some white teflon tape to wrap around the threads of the pipe (wrap the tape clockwise). Line up the new shower head with the threads covered in tape, and screw it in clockwise by hand, until it's tight. Then use the channel locks or monkey wrench to tighten it up.

Yes the bed/bath style has knobs for both sides. It also includes a lock on the inner knob.
