Hey:
Ok Tiling a shower, and the homeowner requested me to tackle the
plumbing also..Ok no problem I do it all the time, but they have
handed me a box of Kohler body spray tiles,wall mtd shower
heads,mixing valves, ect.. I have no problem handling it, but the
shower is on the 2nd floor, and stubbed with 1/2 supply.. and getting
3/4 to it is SERIOUS.
My question is will 1/2 supply enough flow for 3 spray tiles,and 3
shower heads? and as usual time is ticking.. any advice will be much
appreciated people
Thanks Frank

And this is a weekend job, right? My guess is that to provide enough
velocity from all the heads, you'll either need rather high pressure or a
larger feed. Having all that installed would have me believe these folks
don't want a wimpy shower.
