Initially, establish your property’s heating set up and the water pressure; if this is uncertain consult a professional. This will dictate what sort of shower you can install, then after that it is a question of budget and design tastes. For a period property, a concealed valve, traditionally styled, mixer shower may be a fitting choice, or consider a concealed valve, digital shower for modern minimalist chic. Types of Showers Concealed shower valves are exactly what their name implies: they are concealed behind the tiling or wall in your shower. The only part that's visible is the control plate and handles, with the remainder hidden out of sight. Concealed shower valves can create a more aesthetically-pleasing neat appearance, and offer flexibility of design options, such as shaped wall plates and different handles. Exposed valve set ups are generally lower cost and are easier to fit. They can be used for a single outlet shower (only one shower head) or can have a diverter to provide a second outlet for a fixed and hand shower head. They can also be used as a shower bath mixer where they have a bath spout and a hose attachment for a hand shower. Imperial, Bayswater and Crosswater specialise in some beautiful period style exposed valve showers. Concealed Valve Showers Thermostatic showers tend to be more expensive but are well worth the investment. You can set the temperature to be maintained throughout your shower, even if someone puts it in the washing machine and is running the taps to wash the dishes at the same time. A thermostatic shower mixes the hot and cold to a pre-set temperature, it also protects from scalding hot water by closing the shower off completely if the cold water fails. Low-pressure water areas don’t support thermostatic showers unless you install a shower pump, so take qualified advice. Grohe, Rocaand Mira are quality brands for a thermostatic mixer shower.A digital shower delivers a consistent bespoke user experience every time it is used. They work like a conventional mixer shower, where hot and cold water streams are combined to achieve the desired temperature. The difference with a digital shower is that the water flow is controlled by an electronic thermostat, which monitors and constantly adjusts the water flow to maintain a constant temperature, effectively eliminating those annoying cold spots you get when someone turns on an appliance in another room.

I learnt that if you don't get all the fittings aligned then you always worry about leaks. Best to bite the bullet if you can and take off a tile or two. Power showers are used when a property has low water pressure (a typical UK example of this is a household with a gravity fed system: a cold water tank in the loft and a hot water tank on the same floor as the bathroom). The power shower has a built in pump which increases the output and power of the showerhead, giving a more satisfying experience. The quality of our elite German brands are noticeable on the handles and fittings against cheaper imitations; we recommend Grohe and Hansgrohe.Again, the offset quadrant is excellent for maximising space in small bathrooms, cloakroom facilities and en-suites. Combined with the fact that the curved front panel doesn’t project into the centre of the room, while the sliding doors means there’s no need to leave any clearance space in front of the shower itself.
