I find if you have a shower valve fitted over the bath then 1300mm off the floor is a good height.
Standard height of shower valve from floor.
The shower head normally is located 72 to 80 inches above the finished floor.
I figure once i installed the shower pan and the sloped tiled floor it would be 26 above my feet.
Tub spout 4 inches above tub rim.
Check local building codes looking up local building codes is a great starting point if you want to install your shower valve at the right height.
80 inches from the floor.
If your shower is also a bathtub ensure that the valve is low enough for bathers to use it but you can place it around 45 inches from the ground if the shower does not include a bathtub.

Faucet valves 20 to 22 inches above the floor.
Shower heads are located at a standard height of 80 203 cm but can be set at a minimum height of 72 183 cm if desired.
Showerhead will be about 65 to 78 inches above the floor tub supply vertical.
I would have to bend over to turn water on.
Again there is no set height for the water controls.

If valve is over a shower tray in a cubicle then around 1m from top of shower tray.
Shower controls should be placed at a height 40 50 102 127 cm above the shower floor and out of direct line of the water path to avoid being caught in extremely cold or hot water when operating.
If the homeowner prefers an adjustment.
Horizontally each faucet goes 4 inches to the right left of centerline.

In a shower only unit the faucet is placed higher at 48 inches off the floor.
