Not being a MEP person, I'm not too sure what this should look like?

Has anyone already made such an thing? If not... How do you plumb your shower heads? This is in a High School so no nice little shower compartment... like Out of the Box...

I'm thinking... just add a solid within the family from the head.. down in the wall then split into two for the cold and hot connectors? Can't seem to find a picture of a mixing valve on the web...

Thanks for helping me out on my first MEP project.

Awascher - thanks for the upload. When I try to place the family in my project, it won't create it though. Is this object hosted? The family shows a wall, but there are no hosting options when I try to place it.

Thanks.

If you are trying to put it on a linked model, then it won't. You'll ned to copy/monitor the walls in question and then attach that family to those walls.

I would not c/m walls. It will bloat your MEP file. You shoud create the family in a face-based template to work with the linked walls.
