Hi, I need to replace a wall mount shower. Currently have a hot and cold line coming out of the wall. Can they hook up directly to this unit?

I dont know. I ordered this unit; however upon opening, it loomed as though a 3 year old packed it and the wrong manual was with it. I returned it post-haste. Also, you may want to research the mfg. The are only in China. I would suggest picking a "local" mfg or at least a well known brand name mfg.

Yes, your hot and cold lines coming out if the wall will hook up to this unit. I did have to pick up a different set of bushings (3/4"Male-1/2"Female). The set included had two female ends. Outside of that, it was a straight foreword installation. My only complaint is that I did not notice that the finished unit is only 46" top to bottom. I would have love at least 12 more inches of height. I am quite happy with the water pressure out of the rainfall and the handheld.

I had a plumber install it and not sure what you are asking. It doesn't have separate hot and cold knobs if that's what you mean.

It connects directly to the cold tap water line with a diverter. Or the easiest and recommended way is to use a supplied faucet diverter (adapter) which you put on the faucet and connect two tubes. Please refer to this video for the details about installation and features: http://youtu.be/K0TwF3tfSGEThank you!

I have both hot and cold water outlets on the side of my house. I connect a washing machine hose (one with a Y shape) to the faucets and then to the shower unit. Works great. If it ever gets warm again up here in New England I'll be able to use the outdoor shower again.

It appears to not be functional for the bypass mount option. The water is immediately directed down into the hose, then to the head. If only mounting the head to the wall, it would cause the head to point to the drain, or actually spray directly on the shower hot and cold handles.

install as you would any other faucet. you will need to use(2) water lines with an adaptor on the hot qand cold water line to the faucet. check your battery compartment . i have 2 customers angry because i can't seem to get them replaced.

this has hot and cold flex lines that go thru the wall to hook up like a washing machine. If you cut your water lines and attach male threaded fittings you just screw the flex lines onto those. You can feed the flexlines thru the hole where your existing fixture is.

Hello,You would hook up a hot and cold water supply like you would for a regular shower as this functions as an everyday shower. Thanks.

NO, Not directly. it would require some sort of an adapter. The threads are much finer than a garden hose connection . the threads are fine like the threads on a shower head or the supply pipe for a shower head.

The I have the hot/cold system which must be installed as a separate unit. It contains its own 'faucet' [spout] and a heatitng unit. Don't know if the cold only requires the same configuration. The installation guide should tell you.

I am not sure if you are calling the input (the threaded side that threads into the wall)the bottom then yes that would be the best way to install it. The output( where the shower head is installed) should be at top center

You only connect to the sink line for hot water. Otherwise your cold line comes from the toilet supply line. They provided all parts for this. Yes you do not have to hook up the hot. The bidet has an automatic cut off if you use the cold only so it won't leak. Mine has worked great.

its the threaded male adapter that goes inside the wall and connects the hot and cold water to the shower valve. its essential. the hot and cold connectors are separated by a bar that sets the water connections at the right spots to mate with the connections on the shower valve.

If you already have a shower pipe sticking out from the wall you should not need anything else. I would say try it with and without the flow restrictor in place to see what works best before permanently mounting. You would use the existing hot/cold valve(s) to control temperature. This unit just allows you to chose between the fixed or hand-held shower head or a combination of both.

No, you hook it up to the regular water line and you can choose hot or cold water from the unit itself

The diverter is self contained in the unit. You must follow the template exactly for the pipe location coming out to the wall. This unit seals to the hot and cold lines with included pipe ends and an O-ring seal between the supply lines and the shower unit. Can be a little tricky but is really simple in it's design.

I would not recommend it. The supply lines associated with the unit are plastic. If they were to leak, you would have a bigger problem. My plumber tiled and left the copper water supply out of the wall to prevent any failure from occurring. Having it installed on the outside also ensures that should you need to replace it, the new unit would not have to be the same dimensions.
