If the shower is direct overhead (not angled), then: (1) How far out from the original plumbing will it extend? (2) How much higher will it be?

In my shower, it is not directly overhead...it reaches out about a foot or so, but the head is capable of changing angles as well as swinging around a bit at the attmt point. it is not much higher than my old shower head was. I am using it in a std bathtub/shower combo and it really didn't change much about how I shower in there. Hope this helps.

The unit should be on site prior to completing the rough in plumbing. The shower height is set based on personal preferences, primarily the body jets height. My rough in plumbing was stubbed out 32 inches above the finished floor. Hot and cold pipes horizontally seaparated 4 inches on center. Ensure cut off valves are installed. After the marble tile was installed I cut the copper pipe 1 inch from the finished wall and installed a 90 degree shark bite fitting from Home Depot. The rest of the installation was straight forward. Good luck.

You can hang the shower panel at the height that fits your needs. I am 5 ft tall and we hung it a little too low -completely our fault- but I remedy that by turning the top sprayers to a setting that sprays lower and then they spray my chest. They are all individually controlled. You can't turn them to face a different direction, but you can adjust how they spray (mist, jet or spray) and you can adjust the pressure so they spray even lower. Really just make sure you double check the height when installing and you won't have a problem. It totally could've been hung higher than we hung it.

Not certain I understand the question, but the standard details in the Amazon offer say: "Fits ceiling heights 6-feet to 9-feet (extensions included)" Since I installed mine on corner inside of a tub/shower combination no extensions were needed. Few bathrooms have ceiling heights over 9 ft.

I'm not really sure what your situation is but if your current shower head operates from the ceiling then this one will also work in the same place.

My experience would say no. You will not reach 12' if you are going straight up. This may spray 12' or more along a more horizontal plane using elevation to obtain maximum distance. However if you point upwards around 80% my estimate would be more like 8' with a bleach type liquid. You might get 10' if you really pump it up and there is no wind present to deflect the stream.

Ok are you asking from the top of the head shower to the ceiling? Is that the question

Don't have that exact info, but it was not long enough. I paid about $100 to have it lengthened. Still it was difficult to work in the restricted area of my shower. I will give it to anyone who will pay the shipping. duncan.heron@duke.edu

I also ordered the Hansgrohe 18" chrome extension pipe. It has a 90 degree bend on one end that makes the shower head parallel to the floor.

The holder for the showerhead (on the slide-bar) can be pivoted and rotated so that the shower head angle can be changed from straight up to over 90 degrees (horizontal). Hope this helps

My water heater, in a loft, had little more than a foot of overhead clearance and I was able to jockey it in on an angle. Just remember to clean out the threaded opening, tape the thread of the new rod with teflon, and straighten the rod as you put it in.

The manual does not offer any plumbing recommendations. I plumbed my unit setting the 1/2" FIP hot and cold lines 22" above the floor and 3" apart. I am 6'3" tall and this height put the shower head 10" above my head. Watch door clearance if your shower door opens inward like mine (ie: higher is better). This feed line location will still offer you at least 6" variation on the actual unit height as the unit itself is connected using flex hoses. One other tip not mentioned in the manual, The temperature valve (bottom knob) has a safety feature that only lets the water get to warm. Just push the small tab on top and it then allows full hot operation (this is not documented either). The manual does not offer any plumbing recommendations.

I think you would be fine with no extension. I also have high ceilings. Plus in the box you already get an extension. I did not use it.

Fully extended it's 18 inches from the tub. There are three adjustment positions and I have mine all the way up. I'm 5'3" tall and I'm 70 years old. This, for me, is better than a shower seat by itself. It stabilizes me while I step out. I don't think I could get up off a shower seat by itself. Standing it's all I need.

I mounted mine a half inch outside the vertical shower surround. Also be mindful of possible interference with bathroom door. Love the extra space.

If you mean, can you adjust the mount so that the shower head changes from parallel to the floor to perpendicular to the floor, then I can tell you that when attached to my shower, the closest it comes to parallel to the floor (spraying directly onto the floor) is about 10 degrees up from that. It won't go as far as spraying directly on the wall opposite -- the range of the rotation seems to be about 35 degrees. It's really a great shower head.

The rain shower can be tilted about 15 degrees in any direction. It works best in put in the vertical position. To make it work at an angle, I suggest a water booster pump be placed on the shower line. We love ours and use the hand shower as a regular shower.
