I am installing a shower with two heads. Each head will have a seperate pressure balanced valve so that itcan be controlled individually. Each valve will T off of a 3/4 pex for the hot and cold (there is one 3/4 inch hot and one 3/4 cold line that will feed both control valves using the T). Then, out of the valve to the showe head is 1/2.
The question for you experienced guys is would you recommend a loop of some sort with this application prior to the two valves? I know that loops are recommended when using two heads after one valve, but would it be necessary for this animal and how would you do it?
Also, I had fun and ease of using pex for first time. Would you use pex down stream of the valve or go back to copper pipe? The valve has 1/2 threads on the downstream side. I assume you can thread it or solder it? What abou the plug, there is no tub so do you thread the plug or solder?
Thanks for y'alls help
