The water is pressure-balanced and mixed in the Valve and then sent to either the Shower Head. Simple, Stylish, and Functional. Buy this item if you need a functional Shower Only Faucet that looks amazing!

This fixture includes the Rough-in Valve. The Valve is the part that installs in the wall and connects to your home’s hot and cold water supply. The Valve included with this item is the Delta Universal Multi-Choice R10000-UNBX Shower Valve without stops. Delta has manufactured all of their Trim kits (the part of the Shower you actually see) to all fit the same Universal Shower Valve. In the future, if you ever plan to change the style or finish of your Shower Faucet, you will not need to change out the Valve in the wall (as long as you stick with Delta as the manufacturer). This saves you from having to rip out tile or go through other hassles to change your Shower. You can just swap out the old with the new. This advantage allows you to stay up to date with the latest design and home decor trends! The long and short of it: This Shower is a fully functioning Shower Only Faucet which comes with the Showerhead. It has a Single Handle to control the Shower (on/off and to adjust temperature). It also includes the required Rough-in Valve which installs in the wall.
