shower valve advice needed
I am in the midst of installing a 3rd bathroom in the basement of our home. I have installed a fiberglass 2 pc. shower stall and I'm now ready to frame the wall that the hot/cold plumbing will run through. Obviously this will also be the wall that the shower valve control body will be installed. So I figure my next step is to purchase the shower valve so I can stud the wall for easy access and support of the valve. I want a simple chrome setup but prefer pressure balancing and want a single handle. My price point is 100.00 - 150.00 and I want to purchase locally at Lowes or Home Depot. Finally I am familiar with Moen and Delta but there are others out there. What would you guys recommend for this situation ? Keep in mind this is a 3rd bathroom so it is not going to be used much, if anything I'll have to remember to exercise all the fixtures once in a while to keep everything working. I plan on purchasing today/tomorrow. About 99% of the time it is just the wife and I in the house. Any advice is appreciated.
