What is a diverter valve?
Typically, diverter valves simply diverts the flow of the water from the faucet to the shower head. The diverter valves also helps to divert the hot and cold water.
Now, there’s definitely the way of choosing diverter valves based on the design. But there are a few logical reasons as well, for choosing the right diverter valves.
1. There are majorly three types of diverter for bathrooms. The regular, the hi-flow and the 3-inlet.
The regular diverter valve for your bathroom fitting is the easiest one to operate. The hi-flow diverters are made by forged processes which makes it the best in quality. The 3-inlet diverter is also made by forged processes and as the name defines, quite literally, there are three inlets for three types of water – hot, cold and fresh.
2. The water pressure in your bathroom should also be taken into consideration when you are choosing a diverter shower kits
The regular diverter valve can take a high pressure, whereas the hi-flow is meant for water connection with low pressure, and the 3-inlet diverter valves are more delicate.
3. Even though there are these technical factors to consider, for choosing the correct diverter valve, you should consider whether the shape of the diverter body is in sync with the other faucets or not. Viga has explicit collections of bathroom fitting based on the shape, to make sure that you are spoilt for choices.
4. The diverter for shower might be a little thing, but the technology and the craft used in the manufacturing makes it expensive. It is best that you set aside a budget for yourself so that all the criteria are matched and the purchase makes you happy without making a whole in your pocket.
