Can the shower head be turned off and on without having to turn off the main valve

If you are asking if there is some sort of on/off switch at the end of the handle itself (kinda like a kitchen sprayer), no. The shower head can only be turned on/off by turning the knob located at the base of the faucet handle.

No. It has three positions. Wand, shower head, or both wand and shower head. It does not have an off position.

Please bear in mind that this is a DIVERTER. It isn't a THERMOSTATIC valve. Your thermostatic valve will control temperature as well as "on/off". The diverter has 1 IN port and 3 OUT ports. If you CAP any of the OUT ports, then you will have an OFF. mDepends how you plumb it. If you only use 2 outputs as we do (2 shower heads), then you can also have an OFF. If you use all 3 Outputs, then you will NOT have any off in this particular valve and must either use the thermostatic valve or a separate volume valve.

Yes you can shutoff this unit while showering just push the lever all the way to the left.

Yes - there is a valve at the base next to the wall that has 3 position - You can switch it from Shower head only to hand held only or both..

Yes, you can turn off one showerhead while using the other. I'm sure you could hold the showerhead on a hose to wash your dog but there is no pause button.

No, only at the base. You can change how the water comes out of the head, but not turn it off.

Yes. I have one and use it for a two shower head system. I can select between either shower heads or both at the same time. When using both, there is a slight water pressure drop. The temperature control is the rotation of the lever and the volume is controlled with pushing and pulling the lever. The top lever select the output. Also my favorite thing about this valve is that flushing the toilet won't make the shower colder or hotter.

No it can't be turned off while flossing. But you can buy a multi-function-shower-head with a turn off function, then it's possible.

No, it's either on or off. You could pinch the tubing a little to slow down the flow.

No, we've never had to shut our main valve off on this model, no leaking so far. It's worked perfect for us for over 2 years; we plan on purchasing another one for the other bathroom.

You can turn it off! Or adjust the pressure to make it very subtle. But yes, you can turn it off separately.

Once the assembly is installed and connected to the 3/4" water lines it is fixed in place. The control portion of the valve can be removed if an O ring were to fail. There are stops to turn off the water at the valve so any maintainence can be performed without turning off the water main. It is a well engineered unit.

Yes you can - there's a dial on the side that allows you to turn on either shower head or both at the same time. All 3 settings are really nice, depending on what you want that particular day!

Yes, but there are four settings on the shower head. I just use the one with the least force and fill my outside tub. You will have to adjust the temperature and flow controls if you take the head off.

I would think so. It is a simple install. Just remove the shower head fromt he main pipe coming from the wall, screw on the filter, then reattach the showerhead to the other end of the filter. It doesn't matter if you have a single or dual lever. The only thing that the instructions say is that if you have a turn off valve on the showerhead itself, not to use it because it could cause the back pressure to crack the filter housing. If you want to turn the water off, then do it at the lever.Hope this helps.
