Bathroom Shower System

At the top, a large rectangular shower head, with a black face pierced by nozzles, is carried on an angled arm. Below it, the square-headed handset adjusts for height on a holder that slides along the bar.

At hand height, a flat shelf runs across the unit, holding a perfume or shower gel bottle in the photos. The Black version appears in satin anthracite grey, while the White version keeps a black shower head face and a black handset face for a sharp contrast. The supplier states a brass body.

Under the shelf, two round dials. The one on the right shows ‘38°’ on a small screen, so you can see the water temperature before stepping under the spray. The supplier's description mentions a thermostatic mixer, whose job is to keep that temperature steady.

The shelf ends in a flat spout from which a broad waterfall flows, shown in white in the photos: handy for filling a bucket or rinsing your legs.

Between the dials and the bar, a small pencil-style handset stands upright on its holder: use it to rinse the tray, the screens or your feet without taking down the main handset.

With its angled arm, the column needs good ceiling height: measure the space above your water supplies before ordering.

It is surface-mounted, with holes drilled for the bar brackets, and connects to existing hot and cold supplies. If your old mixer had a different distance between supplies, a plumber will adapt the connectors.

For upkeep, rub the shower head nozzles with your fingertips now and then, and wipe the screen and dials with a soft cloth, with no abrasive product. On the white version, a rinse after showering prevents water marks.
