Black thermostatic shower system with 30 x 20 cm rain shower head

At the bottom of the column, a black bar about 26 cm long carries two handles: one sets the temperature, the other opens the water. The principle of a thermostatic valve is to keep the water at the same heat, even when someone flushes a toilet or opens a tap elsewhere.

The top of the bar is flat and the handset hangs right beside it: you adjust the water with one hand, without bending over.

It is the right choice in a family with children, or in a home where the pressure varies. The two square handles extend the line of the bar.

At the top, the very flat square rain shower carries the dimensions 30 cm and 20 cm on the supplier's drawing. It turns on its ball joint through 360° and its nozzles are silicone; the “Air and Water” visual shows a rain mixed with air.

The handset takes the square shape, in a slider you raise or lower along the rail.

The rail is telescopic: from 74 to 113 cm. Measure the height of your water supplies and add the column to check that it fits under the ceiling.

The flat-lay photo shows the rain shower, the handset, the thermostatic bar, the tube with its arm, the black hose, the handset holder, two square rosettes, two eccentric connectors and the fittings.

The eccentric connectors screw onto the wall water outlets: they make up for a small centre-distance offset before receiving the bar. If your outlets are too far apart or badly placed, a plumber will rework them.

A soft cloth and soapy water are enough on the matt black. Allow for a flat spanner and a little PTFE tape for the eccentrics.
