Kohler body sprayers
Comments (2)There are a number of companies that make the body sprays. I have the Hansgrohe Bodyvettes but there are lots of others. Some are real jets and others are more gentle. Some can be turned off individually with a stop feature (which is nice). There are a diversity of viewpoints on body sprays. I happen to really like them and use them all the time in conjunction with my rainhead. I like the feeling of getting the water from the sides as well as the top. We also have a third handshower which operates separately but we don't use it simultaneously with the rainhead/body sprays. So it sounds like you would be configuring so that you could use your regular head together with the sprays. As I said, while there are many fans of the body sprays, there are also lots of people who think the body sprays are a novelty or useless. If you are going to use them, look for the following features: (1) stops at the spray itself so you can turn each particular one on or off if you want to, (2) adjustability so that you can control the angle and (3) ease of cleaning. Also make sure that you position the sprays in the right place vertically and so that you don't have them aimed at your shower door....See MoreShower Body sprayers

Comments (2)The seal around the pipe went bad, probably from handling the rain head during normal cleaning. I'd start with re-installing the riser pipe with new teflon tape and check for leaks again....See MoreBody sprays, handheld and shower head - how many roughs are needed??
Comments (2)A very common way to run plumbing is to have a 3/4" main line that runs to the bathroom, and then each feeder line (sink, shower, commode, etc.) is a 1/2" line coming off the main line. However, when you install one of the units with multiple sprayers I don't know how its connected to the plumbing. Is a unit with multiple sprays and head plumbed as a single unit, possibly using a direct 3/4" line, and then each spray head is connected to the unit using materials (feeder lines, etc.) provided with the controls? Or does the plumber need to run a separate water line from the controls to each spray head or group? If its plumbed as a unit, the controls may have features that ensure the pressure and flow is consistent for each head, but if you make your own design to interconnect everything you will need to have a plumber that understands how to keep it all balanced.
