This is in the same house as the "Multiple Shower Issues" thread. That shower is in the guest bathroom.
We have another shower in the master bathroom, which thankfully works okay but with some quirks of its own. It can wait.
The master bathroom also has this jacuzzi tub, which also works. But the previous owners, who lived there for ten years before us, informed us the handheld shower faucet was never connected.
Having seen the condition of the shower valve in the downstairs guest bathroom, I was skeptical. I'm thinking this valve is probably just corroded too.
So my first question was, how the heck do you even get at the plumbing for this tub as it's all encased in marble. Yesterday I finally got around to lifting the tiles in the drop ceiling of the downstairs room directly below this bathroom and discovered, it's true.
That handheld shower faucet is currently not connected to the plumbing at all. But there sure is some interesting piping under there...
