What is a pressure balance diverter?
What is a pressure balance diverter? Pressure balance shower valves do just what their name implies. They balance the water pressure to compensate for a lack of hot or cold water, maintaining a stable temperature. Unfortunately, this style of shower valve only balances the pressure in order to maintain a consistent temperature. Does a diverter valve control temperature? Thermostatic valves are designed to maintain both water pressure and temperature. A two-valve diverter uses a rotating control for hot and cold, and a second control to divert water between the tub and the shower. What is a 3 function diverter valve?...
