Question 1

Can this divert flow from wall-mounted handheld to ceiling- mounted shower head?

Accepted Answer

Think of this only working only like a bathtub that would fill up and you would pull the little handle on the tub spout to get the shower to work.  Your current shower must work the same way, that if you blocked the flow to the wall shower with this device the water will come from the ceiling. Take your wall showerhead off the  hose and turn on the water and try and block the flow. The water will take the path of least resistance if it has a choice and will go through the ceiling head if it can, this means you can use this product. If you cannot stop the flow of water and it does not come out the ceiling this product will not work for you.

Question 2

Does this come with rubber gaskets or is it a straight connection?

Accepted Answer

Hello, thank you for your question. This shower flow regulator comes with a rubber gasket. We recommend using teflon tape wrapping the screws for a better tight seal. Hope this is helpful.

Question 3

Does this reduce the max water pressure when the valve is completely open?

Accepted Answer

Hello, thank you for your question. This shower flow control valve doesn't restrict the water pressure when it's completely open. The pressure and the water volume are reduced when the valve is adjusted to different position. Hope this helps.

Question 4

Need to control the water flow to my whole house humidifier. Would this work?

Accepted Answer

It all depends how you install the valve. This is a valve that will adjust the flow of water. I have used it to limit the water flow in a shower head especially when you are soaping so that the hot and cold supply is not fully shut off as would be if you shut the shower valve and when you reopen the shower valve you don't get a burst of cold water initially.
