    Great job. Great vid. Thank you so much for considering the value of everyone's time by condensing the info and not telling long, useless stories about how Uncle Joe used to install plumbing parts, back in the day. :=)

    Thank you for posting this. I had been looking all over RUclips for a video that showed how to add a shower above an existing bathtub. I couldn't find anything for a long time. Is there any possibility you could change the title of your video to "Add a shower above an existing bathtub"? It's very hard to find otherwise. Again, thank you for posting just what I needed.
    By the way, what are you using as a guard when you solder? It looks like just a flat piece of metal. Will just a flat piece of tin work? Or how heavy duty does the metal need to be? I haven't ever soldered plumbing before, so I need to learn to do it.

    Great video. And totally understand why you wouldn’t want to cut into the tile for the shower head, but that’s not code here to have the shower head come out of drywall. I still would have done it also tho! Ha

    How's the pressure with the new setup? I'm thinking about going from 3 to a single handle. But I'm hearing that the pressure-balance valve ends up reducing the pressure to the showerhead, so I'm reluctant.

    Wish it was easy to do the opposite. I hate one-handle fixtures. The one in my shower now is petrified. I practically have to rip it out of the wall to turn the water on.

    So you don't need a separate diverter valve and handle? The spout diverter is sufficient enough to switch between tub and shower head?
