Man, there's no such thing as a "reasonable price" for those Kohler Watertiles!

I just bought some of those for a job, though not the one you have a pic of. I went and got them and everything else local, big mistake. reason 1, BAD customer service. Reason 2, lead time of 60 days. reason 3, price. i paid extra for a long wait and bad service. I'm not saying your local plumbing house is like this, just saying mine IS.

Anyway, i have ordered from efaucet.com and faucet.com in the past. get a few bids and pin them against each other. i found that some of the online retailers are quite helpful, the price is right, and shipping is free and fast

Check out the link below. I've used this site in the past and they've been great. Perhaps you can find a cheaper price somewhere else.

Also, your clients realize that each of those squares is the equivalent of a regular shower head at 2.2GPM? 8.8GPM will empty a hot water tank pretty quickly.

Thankx Dan... That's the lowest price I've seen.. Good point about the flow rate.. I read it as 2.5 GPM but I thought it was for the 4 head unit.. I see it's for each head now... Thankx again..

No problem at all. I thought about that fisture for my shower when I was looking but the 9 or so GPM is what turned me off. Went with the Kohler rainhead instead. Love it.

I did steam shower 4 years ago with the single square body jet used as a shower head, no problems I have heard of.
