does this shower system allow you to use the shower head and handheld at the same time?

Yes you can by way of the diverter valve but the water pressure will be low trying to use both.

You can "force" multiple jets to work at the same time by leaving the jet selector between two options BUT it's not intended to do this...and the water pressure will decrease significantly. I own a showerhead I picked up at the hardware store that has a combo overhead/handheld jet - they can be used simultaneously. I've not seen a panel shower that provides the same function.

You have to select the rainfall shower or the body jet or the hand shower. So, no, teh rainfall shower and the body jets cannot be used at the same time. And yes, the rainfall shower head is tiltable.

There is a manual valve that can be positioned such that water flows out both the showerhead and the handheld device but there is only one water line so preassure is deminished if operated in this manner. I do not believe that the unit is designed to be operated in this manner but it could be if one was satisfied with the volume of water flowing from the devices.

Yes, the handheld head can be held in your hand. You can remove it from the mount to use away from the other head.

The shower head I purchased does have an on/off valve so that either the shower head or the hand held can be used as desired.

Yes you can. I am running two shower heads at the same time off of one 1/2 inch line.

Yes. I have one and use it for a two shower head system. I can select between either shower heads or both at the same time. When using both, there is a slight water pressure drop. The temperature control is the rotation of the lever and the volume is controlled with pushing and pulling the lever. The top lever select the output. Also my favorite thing about this valve is that flushing the toilet won't make the shower colder or hotter.

My wife has asked the same question about the hand held. I have not looked into it yet but looks possible. The regular shower head can be change to any other shower head. The reason I got this unit was so I could install a rain shower head in the ceiling of shower. Rain shower head is not used much. Note: inside the shower head control valve is a small spring and pin that can come out and you may not see it. I did not see it till I installed this unit in 2nd. job.

Yes you can. It has a knob on the side of the main shower head cross bar that allows you to turn it to just the main shower head, just the smaller hand-held, or to the combination of both the main head and the hand held simultaneously.

Yes! There's a 3 way switch. You can use one, the other, or both heads. It's a pretty good shower head and very easy to install.

I suppose you could but it doesn't seem practical to me. The Handheld Showerhead would have to be removed from the hose and then top removed to get cartridge out. I had to work at it to get the cartridge to dislodge from the housing.

No idea on the GPM. Yes, you can run both jets and shower... The better the water pressure in you house the better it works. You can worry about GPM if you are buying a Shower System, you are looking for the features not the savings in water.

Yes! One head is in place and the other hooks at the top and can be taken out to be hand-held. You can turn the knob to allow water to come out of both heads at the same same. Hope that helps!

The short answer is no. I have two of these set up. You can run the shower head, handheld or both. The only thing that affects flow is the shower head itself. Most have a small disc in them now to limit the GPM (gallons per minute) for water conservation. But a good quality shower head has a nozzle set up that makes this limit on water flow unnoticeable.

Sort of. If you run one device at a time (just he head or just the handheld) it is unnoticeable. However, if I run both at the same time there is a noticeable drop in pressure to each one. The overall total water flow is still fine. I suppose the limitation might be in my shower control faucet but I don't know if those are made with flow limiters or not.I am very pleased with the unit.

Both shower heads work at the same time. You can set each one to a different spray pattern such as rain shower on one and pulsing on the other. But you do have to have both shower heads working at the same time. You can also point each head in a different position if you like.
