        Our 2012 35fws shower control valve has no manufacturer name that I can see. I want to convert/replace with one that can control temp and water volume separately. Has anyone done this. Residential ones that I have looked at won’t work, still looking.
        Is an rv specific dual control available?
        Thanks

        It seems that most residential shower faucets these days are pressure regulated to help prevent scalding. That said, not many manufacturers go to the expense of designing a valve that both pressure regulates AND has volume control. I have several Grohe thermostatic shower valves in my stick built house that have performed flawlessly for 20+ years. The hassle of fitting the valve body into the RV shower would be challenging as well as the $500+ price tag.
