Defintely gorgeous! I'm trying something like that this year. If it looks half as good as that I'd be thrilled! I expect it'll take 3 years until the clematises put on a good show. Do you remember what clematies are in the mix? I like group 2 types but they are more prone to wilt. Have any of those wilted?

Where is it made in ? Where did you buy it from ?

If I read this correctly your concern is running out of hot water not flow/water pressure issues. Your hot water supply is limited to the appliance you have heating/suppling the water. You can figure the GPM from your heads & compare to the out put of your heating device. In most cases the info is tagged to your heater. All faucets, except tub fillers, are required to have a flow restricter installed from the mfg.

This is very encouraging. We've waited a long time to remodel our bathroom and it' s totally gutted and we saved up awhile for the remodel . We want it done right. Luckily there was only one tiny place,where there might have been a very small leak ( which we quickly detected and fixed) years ago and no ongoing water damage. With the shower being so old, we held our breath about that. I'.m Impressed that even the shower niche is integrated into the Schluter water-proof system. It's going to take awhile to finish this bathroom because there's necessary time for curing etc. But we see progress every day. Here's the "before" or, more accurately, the " right now" for the shower. Everything will be fixed and there's a lot to fix, This is actually a very large, handicap accessible shower,sized to accommodate a wheelchair. It looks much smaller now that the old tile is down, no idea why.
