Where is the diverter? Is it located on the shower head or handheld? Thanks!

Diverter is at the top of the hose where it connects to top shower head. There is a separate piece that can be inserted at the other end of the hose. When pushed in, it temporarily shuts off water to handheld head.

The diverter is up high on the pipe. Very easy to reach and you are able to move this into a position whereby you can use handheld and overhead at the same time. Useful at times, especially when washing hair ( female of course )

I removed the flow restrictor before I installed it. I think it was inside the part that attaches to the water pipe coming out of the wall. Been a while.... Handheld is not improved by this but main head is pretty nice. Love my deluge!

You can always remove the water restrictor on both the mounted and handheld showerheads if the pressure isn't high enough. I'm not sure if that breaks any laws but plenty of people do it. It's basically a disc with a hole that you can easily pry out.

Leaving the diverter in the on position gives full use of the showerhead and hand held. You can use the hand held without changing the control, but the pressure will be just the regular stream. You need to turn the diverter off on the main head to get the full force from the hand held.

Needs separate valves, but they are included. One water valve, the other is a diverter valve. 3 position diverter, so you can have two heads and the hand held, we simply plumed the valve to operate the shower head in 2 of the positions, then the other was for the handheld.

From your description, it sounds like you have a diverter attached to your shower arm (the curved bar that comes out of your wall) and that one is going to your shower head and the other going to a hand shower with a shower hose, which is the most common setup when you want shower head and hand shower combined. Does it have a knob or lever that lets you switch between the two? See if it looks anything like these: http://www.amazon.com/U4922-PK-Universal-Showering-Components-Handshower/dp/B0064TXLHA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397325994&sr=8-1&keywords=shower+diverter http://www.amazon.com/Danze-D481350BN-2-Inch-Diverter-Brushed/dp/B002BSHSE0/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1397326036&sr=8-4&keywords=shower+diverter If so, then it should be fine. These shower heads fit the standard threaded 1/2 inch shower arms.

The left-hand side threads onto the shower head pipe. Your existing shower head will thread onto the right-hand side. The 3rd connection visible on the lower left is where you would attach a flexible shower arm. This product is not very well made - would recommend this: Danze D481350RB 1/2-Inch Push Pull Shower Arm Diverter

I'm sorry but I'm renovating and haven't installed it yet but I think I can answer your question. The round plate between the shower head and the tub spout controls the water flow and the temperature from either the shower head or the tub spout. The other wall control is the diverter as this is a two function system. This allows you to divert the water from the shower head to the tub spout. Hope that helps.

There is no diverter, simply lift the shower head from the bracket to use by hand.

When you position the diverter for the hand shower, the water initially flows out of the spout. You would then lift a pull knob atop the spout which would then activate the hand shower. We are pleased with this product.

the diverter valve swings from on on the handheld whiler shower head is off. As you goe from handheld to rain shower they will both be on at reduced pressure until you reach the rain head position then the hand held is off.

The bottom downward part I converted into a foot rinse with a shower head. I put a water control on both sections so I could divert the water either up or down. Works great. I don't know why you could put the handheld the same way. I had to add a piece of galvanized piper with a valve to accomplish what I wanted. Our showe is in Florida so I don't have to worry about the winter freeze. Good luck!

My bonded and licensed plumbers installed the unit OUTSIDE of the actual shower - and that has been the general recommendation for its installation. It has a drain pan it sits in and the drain pan should be routed to the outside of the house - for those very rare occasions the unit has to be flushed. The steam outlet is routed to the inside of the shower room.

From the bottom. It doesn't change the way the water comes out. That hole at the top is for the thing at the top of the spout that turns the shower on....whatever that's called....

1) The diverter gives you 3 choices: a) Wall shower only, b) Handheld shower only, or c) Both Wall and Handheld shower2) That depends on how high your shower pipe is. The hose is only 5' long so you may not be able to go too low. You can buy a longer hose.3) No, but you can easily buy an on/off valve to put between the handheld showerhead and the hose. That will become your Pause button. You can probably find them for a few dollars but here is one for $11.99 on Amazon: Showerhead Flow Control Valve Please note that this valve has a restrictor which reduces water flow. If you don't want to further restrict your water flow, find a valve that as no restrictor. 1) The diverter gives you 3 choices: a) Wall shower only, b) Handheld shower only, or c) Both Wall and Handheld shower2) That depends on how high your shower pipe is.

David, by handheld do you mean use this shower head for a handheld or do you mean connect a handheld beside this shower head?
