Overview

A shower control is the single-handle valve trim on the shower wall that turns the water on and sets the temperature. Every shower needs one, and it is placed where it can be reached easily before stepping under the spray.

Sizing & placement

The trim is 7 inches by 7 inches and projects 3 inches from the wall. Its default bottom edge is 44 inches above the floor, putting the handle near the 48-inch height common in practice; you can change it. Placing it near the entry lets you turn it on without getting wet.

Where it works

All bathroom showers and tub-shower combos; suits any style.
