[QUOTE="08mojo, post: 15951112, member: 132915"] I went round and round on this one... I called Moen and their tech said 1/2 is fine. The body sprays are 1.75 gpm, and a 1/2 pipe is good for ~14 gpm. So, 1.75*4=7 < 14. I know there is a lot more that goes into the equation, such as each T, 90, reducer, etc...but hopefully it will be okay. The other reason I went with 1/2 is I couldn't fit 3/4. The 1/2 is right up against the backer board. The home is in the south. The piping for the rain head being in the attic also bothers me. It's going to get a lot of insulation above the pipe and I plan to build a box for the piping out of styrofoam. My hope is to let heat in from the room and block out the cold air from the attic as much as possible. [/QUOTE]
