I’m adding additional shower to existing one on the opposite wall. The current shower is getting feeded form 4 pipes connected in to one. I’ll try to give you a picture:

I’m not sure if I should feed the second shower from the pipes that are feeding the current shower or should I connect the second shower pipe to the 1” pipe that is on the top of the four ½“ pipes.

Connect to the 1" piping would be my best suggestion.


I've never seen a config quite like that though. :eek:
