Too Many Shower Choices!

5 years ago

My contractor wants to instal a Delta rough in valve, which limits me to Delta products. My spouse thinks a grab bar would be good. I bought a Trinsic Monitor 17 and ... a Speakman glide bar mounted shower system (VS123010)- so a shower head attached to a hose which can be diverted to a hand shower which is mounted on the glide bar. They arrived today and they aren't a perfect match visually, so I have to go back and look at Delta. I can't find anything similar. Am I missing something?

Now I'm looking at the combination shower head and hand shower - In2ition with the magnetite, but no integrated grab bar. It's so frustrating. ...unless someone reading this knows a solution. Thanks in advance!

Your contractor needs to wait until you get the right piece for the shower so hurry up time is money.

The one from speakman has the water feed for the handheld coming from a fitting behind the main shower head - where there is a control to divert the water. You can do this with Delta as well - just need to get he pieces. Or if he doesn't have the plumbing done yet, you can get the one with a diverter and place the water feed elsewhere

I'm thought using chrome would make matching easier, but no. This morning the contractor said he would install a Speakman valve instead if I could get it by Tuesday, but I ended up going with all Delta, chosing Ara trim and the Delta 58473-25 In2ition 2.5 GPM Multi Function shower head. I'm returning the Speakman with a little sadness because it was quite lovely and obviously well made.
