Dual rain head shower with a single source

Author: sudsymack (Non-US)

I'm looking to install a dual rain shower head but want balanced pressure and temperature from a single source located on on the right side of the shower. I have talked to a couple plumbers but neither were exactly sure if this can all be achieved.

I thought I would use a triple valve. 2 to control each head on/off and the third to control the temperature... The problem might be that one shower head would be located further away from the valves than the other.

Would anyone be able to walk me through the set up and components required so I can communicate it to a plumber?

Thanks!

Author: packy (MA) it should be a simple matter to increase the size of the piping and create equal legs to each head.
