I have the Pulse 1011-CH Kauai .I special ordered the shorter extension (make sure to measure on the retrofit). It was not very expensive compared to the market. Made out of solid metal, not plastic,I love it.Installed very quickly and works great.

I found the Moen T2701 fits well, along with any compatible Moen valveone other note: I found the rod of this shower head assembly, along with the hose coming out at the bottom, too tall to mount vertically above the valvesince I built a new shower - no problem, I positioned the valve next to the rod, centered to the water direction valve at the bottom of the rod, where the hose attachesthere is supposedly also a shorter version available, presumably better for retrofit

we used Moen Caldwell Chrome 1-Handle Shower Faucet with Single Function Showerhead. it works well, but we did have a problem with valve positioning - the rod is very long. measurements between the shower head and shower valve had to be done to make valve pluming in the right spot, our plumber missed this and it was a problem. we did position it eventually in the right spot in the same line as the rod, and it looks and works just fine.

We used the standard Symmons shower control feeding the above shower head. The PULSE kit then pipes from the shower head feed to a lower diverter valve where one chooses between the overhead shower or the hand held shower.

What shower are you installing? I was in the same situation as you a year ago. What I did was go into delta's website, find the set I wanted and look at the parts list. That told me which one to choose. Good luck!

yes. iBox doesnt come with the valves. but the trim does. Dont need anything else other than trim and iBox. Unless you're looking for a three way shower, then you'd need another diverter.

If you already have a shower pipe sticking out from the wall you should not need anything else. I would say try it with and without the flow restrictor in place to see what works best before permanently mounting. You would use the existing hot/cold valve(s) to control temperature. This unit just allows you to chose between the fixed or hand-held shower head or a combination of both.

I believe this is what you're looking for. http://www.amazon.com/Delta-R10000-UNBXHF-Multichoice-Universal-Shower/dp/B0040YQ218/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430674928&sr=8-1&keywords=delta+shower+valve

There was no valve (ie: an external valve like one would have in a shower set) that I know of. The braided hoses connected to the hot/cold supply lines. Everything my plumber/remodeler needed to install this faucet set (which, by the way, is very nice) was in the box.

It's been several months since I ordered this product, but I'm almost certain I had to order the valve separately. I got the valve at a local supplier and a plumber installed it. Very happy with double shower with a single control.

Does not include valve. There are several types of valves and not every trim kit fits every valve.

You need to buy the $29 Universal Valve Body for shower---- or tub/shower if you need them both in one unit. Mine is working fine. It seems odd that one costs so much more than the other [handle vs valve body] but you need both.

Had no problem installing this kit. Used clear caulk to seal trim plate against the wall. Did not protrude into wall...? Standard install. Quality acceptable for our second bath,

As long as the trim you are looking to upgrade to can use the kohler k304 valve you won't need to replace it. If you are switching to a different manufacturer you probably will need a valve that works with that manufacturer's trim kit.

I used this:Hansgrohe 04231000 S Thermostatic Trim With Volume Control And Diverter, as I have wall bar AND also a shower head (angle arm with shower head from the wall). You will not need a diverter if you only want a wall bar, which is good enough. You will also need the hose and outlet along with Ibox, if this is a completely new install. Hope this helps. We are enjoying the wall bar set. To keep it looking new, wipe off water after every use. Hope this helps.

This is a shower only trim kit, so no, there would be no tub. You can order the tub/shower one which does do that.

No. It replaces all of the valves in your shower/tub, so you need just a hot and cold pipe sticking out of the wall.

Hi Violet,Wish I could help, but it turned out to be the wrong hardware for a tub/shower combination, and I returned it without really opening the box. For what it's worth, the return credit was hassle-free.

This kit comes with the valve. It is not very likely your old valve will match up to the new fixture. Which means you have to get into the wall unhook both water lines remove old valve and install new one. A lot of plumbing involved. However if your fixture is a one handle there is a slight chance you could just remove it and screw this fixture in.
