            Q:The R430 spec sheet says, "NOTE: Cannot be used as a shut-off valve." Is it OK to install R701 valves downstream of the R430, on each of the 3 branches? My preferred configuration would be: hot and cold lines come in to a R510 mixing valve; mixed water goes out to a R430 diverter; then each branch of the diverter leads to three separate R710's followed by their respective outlet fixtures (tub spout, shower head, hand shower). To be clear: I understand that only one outlet will function at a time. Someone I asked about this told me that pressure would build up if it was configured like I suggest, damaging the diverter or mixing valve. Is this true? I need an expert's OK on this configuration before moving ahead. Thanks for your help!

            A:  There’s no need to use the R430 and R701 together. I would suggest that they use the R523. In this configuration, you wouldn’t need the R430 diverter since there would be 3 separate R701s…just like the instructions show. This is not true…again, you wouldn’t need the R430.

                Answer This Question

                A:  the valve is going to turn around 360 degrees with no stops but if it is not shutting off the other components then you would want to replace the diverter repair kit.

                    Q:What is the proper valve configuration to have three spray locations controlled where all can flow at the same time? 3/4 lines, two body sprays, handheld, rainhead
                    by|Nov 4, 2011
                    1 Answer
                    Answer This Question

                    A:  You can not use a diverter for this configuration. The only way you can do it and be able to have them flow at the same time is by using on/off valves on each individual item. You must have sufficient water pressure to support this.
