What size water line do you use 1/2 inch or 3/4 for this shower panel system?

1/2 inch flex line. If the pipes in the wall are 3/4 you could just get a 3/4 to 1/2 adapter. My install was really quick and painless and took me a grand total of 5 minutes to drill and hang

We ran 3/4 pipe to the riser under the house, from there 1/2 pipe to the shower. We then use a laundry shut-off valve to allow the option to remove the panel if needed (this may not be nec.). We are spring fed and have only thirty pounds of pressure which seem adequate for the use of the shower. More pressure would be better. John

1/2 inch. This panel is great and I highly recommend it. Very please with how it looks and with all the functions. One of the main focal points of my bathroom.

It has been some time since I installed this for my Daughter, but I think it is 1 1/4", I used an adapter and used 3/4" pipe in our situation, I probably would not use any smaller than 3/4 pipe tho,

I am using my existing 3/4 in pipe with a flange attached to it. Good luck.

the fittings can use from 3/4 to 11/4 inch hose depending on how much water you want to move.

The inlet is 3/4". You need to order from manablock the brass connectors that hook up the hot and cold water at the bottom. Call Manablock- they were extremely helpful.

The system you use is irrelevant, a drip line is a drip line. The only thing that matters is that your system uses 1/4" line. No connector needed this plug snugly into the end of a 1/4" line.

It's a standard showerhead connection, I replaced a regular showerhead with this one. I want to say 1/2".

If my memory is correct the Marey is a 1/2" connection - our home has a 3/4" line. It has been a year since we purchased a Marey and ultimately had it removed we had so many problems. I am fairly certain one of the issues we had was couplings, elbows etc. to go from 1/2" to 3/4" for this unit.

I'm not sure why people are saying 2", because the Hayward website says this model is 1.5" inside thread. However, that fitting would reduce the waterflow even if you're already using 1.5, so I'm trying to figure this out myself.

Hi,2 inch which includes a wall plate that is a little over 1/4 inch thick. So I would take 1+3/4 inch for the unit alone.

I have one inch (none drip) tube running from the tap around the garden (more than 100 ft) and I have connected few of these drip lines into that. It works fine. But I have not tried connecting inch to 1/4 inch. But if you have enough water pressure, this should works.

I have the size that fits 1 1/2 to 2 inch lines that works great, but I had no success with the 4 inch version... but in the products defense, I am on a well and it may be a pressure issue. The smaller version works great.

I'm not sure what the exact line size is but the tubing itself is smaller than 1/4"

3/4" connections used to unit. Check local codes. I used 3/4" piping throughout . Flex can only be used for connections under 36". Distance from source shouldn't matter, pressure should be the same. Use hard pipe.

Installation requires the "basic set" which extents from your water pipes through any tile application and fits the shower fixture. The 3/4 in iBox is not required. I contacted Hangsgrophe and they stated that it was an error from Amazon to require this part and in fact it will not work at all with this showerpipe. I contacted Amazon with this problem and they stated that they would remove the requirement. They didn't.

Standard 3/4" pipe. This is an exact replacement for the outside shower on ALL RV's. There were only a few manufacturers, they are all the same plumbing hookups. The plumbing fittings are all standard, I put a pull out faucet from Home Depot in the kitchen sink.
