Hello, Im new here. I have gutted out my bathroom and looking at shower and bathtub fixtures. I dont know all the proper terminolgy, but for the tub, im putting in a wall mount 2 handle mixer valve. I think im all set as far as that goes. The shower is a walk in stall type that will be all tiled. Im having a hard time figuring out what style mixer/ rough in valve to use. Im shying away from the pressure/temp control valves because it seems like too much can go wrong, not familar with these at all. I initally was leaning towards a 2 handle mixer same as bath, i realize this may not be code but dont care. I cant find a single handle mixer with out temp control. I was also looking at kohler brands, but am open to suggestions on brands. Any input is appreciated
