This shower valve set has been a mess since it arrived. Nothing but issues to try to accommodate a poor design and even worse set of instructions. The steps that are clearly written are incorrect.1st Issue: The instructions for plumbing the shower head and the shower handle are backwards. So plan for an extra half an hour of installation while performing the guess and check method. Make sure you have some extra plumbing parts around in case you have to redo it. Make sure you test it before sealing up the wall! I had issues sealing the threads. Had to use Teflon tape that was higher quality and thicker than what was provided with the unit.2nd issue: No Flange is provided with the brass shower handle outletThere are 2 Major issues with this:1) It is very unlikely you will be able to thread this in the perfect amount to seal the connection and make it flush with the tile. So you will have an ugly connection. I set my drop ears (threaded connections) as far forward as possible and there still is not enough thread on the outlet body to seal properly. Now i will have to try to find an adapter and a flange to cover the cut tile.2) Without a seal you have to caulk around the outlet body otherwise you will certainly get water intrusion. Why provide a seal for the shower head pipe but not provide a seal for the pipe that is lower on the wall which will certainly be exposed to more water?3rd issue: The valve includes a removable face plate that says to make make it flush with finished wall. Make sure that you add an extra 1/4" past flush. Followed this instruction and did not have enough space to activate the handle properly. Luckily i have access to the wall behind the shower valve otherwise i would be ripping out all my tile just to move the valve forward 1/4".4th Minor issue: Face plate for valve and handles is very difficult to install. Hole spacing is not correct which results in having to pry the seal back with a screwdriver to install.After dealing with all the design and instruction issues with this set i would absolutely return this if it did not require me to destroy my brand new shower to take it out.
