Does this valve prevent the water temperature from changing while you're showering and someone flushes the toilet?

Yes, this valve prevents water temperature from fluctuating. We always had issues with people showering while others used water anywhere in the house, including flushing the toilet. The temperature in the shower could go from scalding hot, to icy cold. When we remodeled our bathroom and installed this valve we never had that problem again.

The shutoff valve doesn't shut all the water off to the shower head. That's just the way it was made I guess. How about putting a bucket in the shower at night and using the water in the bucket to flush a toilet? At least it's not being wasted!

The temperature is preset but you can simply make it warmer by deppresing the small knob on the top of the round valve handle. When you press it down, it allows you to turn the valve counterclockwise which makes the water hotter.

I'm sorry but I'm renovating and haven't installed it yet but I think I can answer your question. The round plate between the shower head and the tub spout controls the water flow and the temperature from either the shower head or the tub spout. The other wall control is the diverter as this is a two function system. This allows you to divert the water from the shower head to the tub spout. Hope that helps.

Yes. I have problem with it. After few weeks from installation, when the water flow is open, the panel makes same noice and the screen of thermometer is off.

The top knob controls 2 functions (shower head & handheld) The bottom knob controls the temp and volume of the water. It is pressure balanced to prevent shower shock and hold the temp.

There is a switch which we haven't used. Having it on all the time means our small bathroom is a couple of degrees warmer than the rest of the house, a benefit when showering.

Yes, shower or hand-held or any mix in between. Lower valve is pull on/push off and temp.

Yes, but don't change the orientation of the valve. Keep the valve with its (shower) output facing up so that the controls/bezel still operate normally.

none.The shifter handle that mounts on the wall, does it all. off/on hot/cold.You may want to remove screens and fittings from inside the showerhead, if you have hard water.

It does not. Water stays clear, and since I started using Iron Out, have not had toilet ring problems from iron in the water. Works great.

Yeah, it restricts flow nicely in my experience. I have it right behind a large, 5"-wide showerhead that has too much flow by itself. This little valve is great for adjusting the flow to my or my wife's preferred pressure.

The toilet comes with the water flush valve installed. The water shut-off valve is not a part of the toilet

It can, there's a valve that allows you to adjust intensity, while at the same time you can have the shower on or off, just depends on where you adjust the lever. I prefer it on, I'm not a fan of being cold in there.

No, but turning down the thermostat on your water heater would do that, as well as save you money on heating your water higher than you need it to be heated. Just search on the internet, "how to turn water heater temperature down"

if I understand your question the valve is only intended to regulate water and water pressure to the big day it should not be affecting your flow to your toilet.

No. When water is turned on only the irrigator is on. Fortunately, I have two sinks in my bathroom so I am able to leave the irrigator attached. It would be great if there was a valve which would divert water flow.
