HydroRail-R allows you to easily upgrade a standard shower to a spa-like showering experience with luxurious overhead rain and hand shower functionality. It can accommodate a wide array of bath/shower configurations without altering in-wall plumbing, making it suitable for both remodels and new construction. This bath/shower column converts your single-outlet showerhead into a two-outlet custom showering experience and has a slide bar bracket for easy height and angle adjustments to your hand shower. For smooth toggling between hand shower and rain head functions, this column features a diverter conveniently located at the base.
Installed this as a part of my bathroom renovation and I couldn't be happier. It allows me to have a over the head rainshower shower head without having to have to relocate my plumbing into my ceiling. I did have to redo some plumbing to get the shower spout to the correct height for install. The rail attaches to the shower plumbing at the upper bracket, the lower bracket is merely for support. There is a built-in hand-held shower diverter, so you will need to consider the right sized shower hose and hand held shower head.
Pros: High-end contemporary design. Solid build.
Cons: Pricey but worth it. May require some plumbing work if existing shower plumbing is too low.. Alain. Northridge, CA. Tue Sep 15 2015
