How to: KOHLER custom shower system setup - pressure loop & plumbing conections Atlanta tile

http://www.tilemasterga.com In this video I am showing setup and installation of CUSTOM KOHLER SHOWER SYSTEM using Thermostatic and Volume control valves. Pressure balancing loop is a mast to receive even pressure in sprayers. Also running ¾" copper water lines to main valve will help receive decent pressure in all shower heads if used in a same time. .In this project I am using one KOHLER K-669-KS-NA Master Shower XVII 3/4" Thermostatic Valve & three KOHLER K-671-K-NA 3/4 Volume control valves. This setup is for two body sprayers, regular shower head and hand shower. This bathroom remodeling project was located in Atlanta Ga ( Dunwoody) but we also service Alpharetta , Roswell and north metro area providing tile installation, carpentry, plumbing and electrical work. I hope that this video and information's will be useful for viewers. Tile installation next.....

All that work and couldn't put the tile on 45's . Would have looked much nicer

Yeah scorched wood is not a big deal....but charred wood is no excuse next time try some flashing folded up in a tight Z behind what you're soldering and you'll have no worries. Pressure loops are fine....should have planned it out so you could run a T straight to the bottom of your control valves to eliminate the the drops from the pressure loop to the control valves. Not sure why the supplies are crossed...but I'm sure there is a reason for it. Always nice to see copper put to good use.

Scorched wood is neither here nor there when it comes to the structural integrity, easy to criticise when watching a video. Nice vid. Thanks for the info.

woodframe burned - nice

That is a nice looking shower in the finished pictures at the end of the video.

It looks like the installer got paid by the fitting! I hope the incoming water pressure is high; it seems like a lot of unnecessary (in my opinion) elbows, which will kill the water pressure. It's good the piping downstream of the thermostatic valves is 3/4" to minimize that.

I would have seriously considered pex, but there is a lot going on inside the wall that may have made putting together everything difficult.

Volume control valves. As for the torched wood, what plumber with even a few years behind him hasn't burned wood or the hair on his hands?
