There's a reason I went with the superior German designed shower control(Grohe).

Knob for temp. Knobs for flow on the shower, tub and hand shower, button to turn each of the 3 on/off. Temp is always the same, flow is always the same.

The plumber doing my bathroom took one look and said "fuck that" so I did it myself. Water side is easy since it's a single module. But the face plate is designed for different wall thicknesses and is a bit of a pain. And it's all in Ikea style fucking pictures.

It's about the shower curtains. The shitty shower rod curtains that constantly fall down. For no good reason. Hell one time they fell down when I was sleeping. What does that have to do with the shower? Whoever invented the tension shower curtain is satan himself.

Correct! The standard euro one has two knobs, one for temperature which you leave alone, and the other for turning on and adjusting flow to either the rain shower or flexible spray head.

But the key thing is it’s thermostatic.

My main problem with American ones is that the standard is to have a single fixed spray head sticking out of the wall at face height. Usually over a tub as well.

Tension rods are fine. No drilling into the tile to install. As long as they're the kind where you actually use a screw to tighten them and not just a weak spring.

Embrace enclosed showers. I eventually want an all-surround mist shower but tradies are being complete gombeens rn.
 
The transcription archive has been updated with Null's pre-departure ramblings.

The IA(archive.org) links should now mostly work. I have some newer archive.org stuff to add links for in the next update. Archive.org sometimes doesn't start the video you wanted so you may have to click again in their player.

The archive is available at TWO different URLs depending on your preference:


The older zip files have been removed due to more/better automation to keep the stupid thing up to date.

Links to the WARDAWG call have been added among other older stuff.

Depending on the archive source sometimes a full stream will be listed along with sources with the same stream in parts.

This post has been brought to you by the letters A and I, and the Transcribulator2000.

Reminds me of that one /k/ meme about a Russian berating people trying to tacticool their ak-47. Shower valves should be simple and effective while being easy to maintain. Something a lot of euro outfits, especially Germans, really suck at.

Agree on curtain rods though fuck that shit. What is it with Americans and tubs anyway? Everyone else is fine with nice tiled shower stalls. But Americans? Gotta have them cheap fiberglass tubs with the plastic surround.

I dream of an enclosed shower with natural rock all around. But I don’t think the trades are going to get cheaper anytime soon. Those days are probably over.

Half the people you meet in Colorado moved there from Texas.

So you admit something about Texas makes the retard hippies not want to be here? I assume it's the hot summers and unpredictable winters.

Can't be the tornadoes. Everyone likes tornadoes.

Edit: It's come to mind that perhaps Texans are driven crazy by the lack of adequate heat in Colorado.
