three way diverter - temp. turn-off water supply: Can someone please verify if the three way diverter can be used to turn-off the water supply to the complete shower head?

The 3 way diverter is to 1. turn the outside head only on 2. turn the inside head only on and 3. turn the inside and outside heads on together, there is no shutoff valve.

Depends on how you want the water to flow; I believe this was designed for the complete showerhead/handheld/body spray configuration but I used it differently... I bought and installed the 3-way diverter to give me the choice of having water flow (1)only through the tub spout, (2)both spout and showerhead and (3)only through showerhead. We have a shower/tub combo and I like to fill the tub with some water from my shower also because I use a special Vitamin C filtered and negative ion showerhead that gives me relaxing ions and chlorine-free water in my tub.

This diverter valve has two functions. The top valve controlls which shower function is in use - in my case it's the rain shower or the hand held shower. The bottom one controlls the water temp only (there is a safty button to prevent scalding on the bottom valve as well). It does not controll the volume. I am extremely satisfied with this product.

No, it is only a diverter valve. It goes to one port or the other port, there is no closed or off position.It is a very well made diverter, heavy construction and will last for many years.

I got a hand held shower attachment for mine. The diverter is actually for the shower ring on the clawfoot tub. I'm sure if you wanted to plug it off you can find find one at the hardware store.

There is no need for a diverter anymore. I had a plumber cut that out and install a shut-off for each supply pipe. Then all you need to do is hook up the supply hoses that are part of the panel. (The installation guide called for two pipes to penetrate the wall for the hook-up which I didn't do. Cut out a bigger square hole for easy access since I don't have the option of a behind-the-wall access panel.)

I believe you are asking whether this device can shut down not only water to a water heater but also from the main water supply. I find it works fine at that latter point. I installed it on the 1 inch line that comes into the house to shut down the water supply in the event that there is a leak while I am away for an extended period.

I have shower head, handheld shower, and bath spout setup. I bought a separate diverter, so I never bothered to know whether he product had a diverter or not.

When you get the package you have to connect the shower head to the chrome arm that extended from the panel. There are a series of pipes in the back of the panel that feed the various water outlets. I suppose you could disconnect the pipe that goes to the shower head from the arm or go directly from the arm with another pipe, but I did not study the piping in the back to know for sure if that is possible.

none.The shifter handle that mounts on the wall, does it all. off/on hot/cold.You may want to remove screens and fittings from inside the showerhead, if you have hard water.

I spent months trying to find a valve that behaved like a hydraulic valve used on pipelines. Was dismayed to discover that shower valves were required to allow a small amount of flow to continue in order to keep the water the same temperature when it is turned back on. To avoid cold water shock I suppose.Finally had to buy a less attractive valve from an industrial supply store that actually performed as I wanted, meaning full off or full divert.

Yes you can individually turn off sections of jets. For example, if you don't want to get your hair wet you could turn on everything but the waterfall. I have had mine for several months and love it. Best shower in the tristate area.

No, only at the base. You can change how the water comes out of the head, but not turn it off.

Yes! There's a 3 way switch. You can use one, the other, or both heads. It's a pretty good shower head and very easy to install.

Yes. The R11000 diverter can be plumbed as a 3-way or a 6-way diverter. Lets say you wanted 2 shower heads on the wall and one rain shower head on the ceiling. You would use the 6-way diverter and have six unique settings or functions. Function 1 = only shower head #1, Function 2 = shower head #1 and #2, Function 3 = only shower head #2, etc

No, it's simply designed to do one thing - save you water when you're waiting for the temperature to warm up. It runs inline with shower head and any shutoff valve that may already be there so if you buy a shower head with cutoff it would still work.
