Does the mount have to go on the water outlet or can it be installed on the wall? I want to install a bypass to use the fixed shower head & this one

I believe that all of the others have answered your question and I agree with them. I mounted ours directly to the wall outlet as pictures and we both love it that way. As already stated, you could use a "Y" outlet and do a dual mount, but that is really a great shower head and works great both ways. Why waste the time and $$? Try it the way intended and then, if you do not like it (which I doubt) look at the other options. (Bet you don't do them.)

Mount is designed to screw on to the outlet pipe coming out of wall (threaded). I suppose you could add another bypass and attach this. Or a plumbing shop might have a Y-adapter that would let you mount this AND a regular shower head and turn on one or the other, but why would you? Maybe I'm not understanding what you want to do.

hmmm....ours is screwed on shower head outlet as pictured. We really like it and use in lieu of regular shower head. Great pressure and several spray patterns. Sorry to not be of more help.

The mount has to attach to the water outlet because it is not a wall mount. Of course, you can buy a wall mount to install separately and attach the hose with shower head to your adapter/bypass and not use the included mount. Hope that helps.

This is an easy one. When you attach to thw water source, you are attaching the entire unit. The hose mount for the shower head is part of the unit so it appears to me you could put it anwhere you have a threaded pipe to attach to. I looked at mine and there are several simple ways to accomplish what you want to do but when you see the shower head I'll bet tou will forget wanting two shower heads. Good luck, this is a great unit.

It appears to not be functional for the bypass mount option. The water is immediately directed down into the hose, then to the head. If only mounting the head to the wall, it would cause the head to point to the drain, or actually spray directly on the shower hot and cold handles.

I attached to the existing water outlet. I removed the fixed faucet and just screwed this one in that place. It works really great.

It is designed to be installed either way. Much easier to install on the wall and looks great!

The valves are inside the lower portion. This is an exterior mount, so there is nothing inside the shower wall except for the water pipes themselves. The printed instruction manual is somewhat sketchy, covering multiple similar models, but the actual installation is pretty much intuitive. You might be able to get a downloadable copy of the instruction book from the manufacturer, Rozinsanitary.

Yes, very simple to wall mount with a single scew and drywall anchor. I placed mine about six inches from my toilet paper roll. Works perfectly. The hook is more like a nozzle cradle. It faces into the cradle. Some people have complained about dripping but whenever that has happened to me I have followed the vendors instructions to turn it on and quickly squirt water out on and off like 20 times. In each instance that has stopped the dripping and I think it's caused by grit in the water line.

Had it installed during a bathroom renovation by a plumber. For it to work I needed to order the appropriate diverter valve as listed for this model. You would need to be able to switch between shower head and hand held shower. That's the way I understood it. It was installed and works great.

Yes, you have to install it with the shower. You take the head off, screw the quick connect on then screw the shower head into that. The quick connect that works great. I just wish it had a little more pressure but I like it.

Once installed, you have to detach the hose to use the regular showerhead. When attached, the hose connection shuts off the regular showerhead.

I had to buy a small pipe extension in order for it to for on one of my showers. The other just screwd right on. Depends on your existing shower head

This one can attach in two different ways. It can either be screwed (with two screws) into the wall or shower and/or it also has a full size adhesive pad on the back of it (needs a flat smooth surface of course for it to stick). You can actually do both if needed on this. I just cleaned the shower mounting spot with rubbing alcohol to remove any soap scum and used just the adhesive. Worked great and hold very secure. Make sure it's straight when you stick it on, because it sticks pretty quick. I researched the suction cup types and they either wouldn't stick to the wall or wouldn't hold the shower head. Hope this helps.

No. It's made to be mounted in a horizontal position on the tub, or on the deck around the tub. Why would you want the water stream directed back at the wall? Or a shower hose that wouldn't stay in the holder? Frankly, your question makes no sense.

no it does not need to be mounted to the wall unless you have rough antics going on in your bath. its a lovely piece. peace

Without the arm, the shower head will essentially be flush against the wall. If you want the "rain effect" you'll need the arm as it extends the shower head to be directly overhead. I bought one for my new apartment and it has been life changing. So I say go for it! Easy to set up and I'll be taking it with me to my next place.

You have to clip the unit into its mounting plate to activate it, which is why I installed mine on the wall.

It comes with a cheap plastic diverter. Plan on probably needing to buy one that will stay together from Delta. The wall mount is fastened by a screw.

They make a hardwired version which is what I bought. I mounted the attachment plate to a stud in the wall, then drilled a hole behind it (through an existing hole in the plate) to run the wires. The space to pack the wires is tight, so I have to admit it was difficult. I'm not sure if it could be mounted directly to an outlet box as that is not what I did. The mirror is fairly heavy and the arm is long, so it needs substantial support behind it.

I already had a wall mounted shower spa. I think you have to have something already in place to twist it on. This was just a replacement head for me.

The hose of this shower screws onto the pipe for an existing shower head. You have to unscrew and remove the existing head and screw this unit's hose onto the pipe that held the old head. The instructions recommend putting Teflon tape over the threads. It sounds complicated but it was a very easy switch on my shower.
