What the customer called about
A homeowner in Claremore, ZIP code 74019, needed a shower valve replaced. They supplied the new rough-in valve and trim, and we handled the valve replacement.
What our plumber found
With the shower wall open, we had access to the old valve and copper piping. We could connect the new valve to the existing copper using press fittings and PEX.
How we fixed it
We removed the old shower valve and cut the copper piping for the new connections. We used our press tool to tie into the copper, then ran PEX to the new valve.
Once the valve was connected, we asked the homeowner where they wanted the showerhead positioned.
What this means for your home
If you plan to supply your own shower valve, talk with us about the rough-in valve and matching trim before installation. Showerhead placement is also worth discussing while the wall is open and the piping is accessible.
