can this support be shortened to like 4 inches? I need it for a basement shower with a low ceiling.

Absolutely, trim to fit, use a regular hack saw, then snap it off. Takes about 5 minutes

Yes, the bar can be shortened. A tubing cutter or a careful cut with a hacksaw will reduce the bar length to your needs. The bar simply slides into the wall mounted supports so measure carefully and cut as needed.

Yes. But I found similar dia pipe at baths and beds so could extend short end to 32 in from the 28 in.

What Kyle and Mun said, usually ceiling mounted shower heads are larger diameter as well. This is probably not what you want for a ceiling application.

I looked it up on the Peerless site and it looks like 4". So, the answer to your question would be, "no." I am not sure Amazin will allow the link, but I will try to paste it. http://www.peerlessfaucet.com/bath/product/p299685lf.html

I'm guessing your shower supply pipe must be a little higher than most. I installed two of these and the main shower head and the wand are 74 inches from the bottom of the tub. It works fine for my wife who is 5'6." It is a great shower head so I'd still consider it, even if you need to add a bath-friendly stem of some kind.

It can be shortened. But, hanging this in a bathroom sounds pretty tacky unless, of course, you have mirrors over your bed, as well.

Yes. We have ours on the same shower extension that already exists on the wall. Works great. It's 5 inches also

You would be pushing the 4.5 deep, but the length will work. Mine is four inches deep, but after you put the brackets on it would be close.

It's difficult to measure exactly, since my arm is mounted at about 79", but it appears it would be very tight, very little clearance if all you have is 5.5" to the ceiling from the pipe feed. It would be difficult to tighten easily if it did just fit, since threading by using the elbow is easiest. The Moen version of the shepherds hook style gives an even greater rise, over 6". You would likely be better off with a Water-Pick style jointed arm that you can adjust to fit best.

That sounds strange and here is why. Almost all bath fixtures have either 3/4 inch or 1/2 inch pipe feeding the supply, usually 1/2 inch for the final run. So that means the 3/4 inch should be more than enough. Even than, flow restrictors as mandated by communities are almost always at the end run or device (ie. shower head). So the limitation is either 1) the supply shut off valves (they could be as small as 1/4 depending on what is used) so check these or 2) your whole house pressure regulator. If your pressure/flow is low all over, especially at a garden hose, my bet is on this device. The good news is this adjustable...just get yourself a water pressure gauge (Home Depot/Lowe's) and checkout Youtube searching for "adjusting home water pressure" and you'll b able to increase it significantly. That being said, don't go crazy or you might stress your pipes. Other than that, can't think of any other reason why it would be low. FYI, I have one and it is great..and my pipes are 1/2 inch and I am running with about 65-70 psi. Hope this helps.

I am 6'4" so I use an extender. In a clawfoot tub it would work without for 6' and below.

Our round pipe was three inches and it was great but it may not for the 4". You could always notch it out with a dremmel tool and put a washer down in it and it could work. I would look for a longer bolt first though.

mine is shorter than that but I am using pvc pipe to make an extended frame for the top think it will work

I think so. I tried to measure but it's difficult to do that. I have a shower stool hanging on one of these hooks and the part by which it hangs is just under 3/4 inch. There is a little flex in the hook, so i think it will work.

They extenders lower it about the 16". You can always use chain between the extenders and the ceiling hooks to extend it as far as you need.
