Shower Mixer

A shower mixer blends hot and cold supplies to a set temperature and flow for a shower outlet. Common types are single-lever manual mixers, thermostatic mixers, and concealed (in-wall) or exposed (wall-mounted) valve bodies.

⚠️ Note: Pressure range, cartridge type, and inlet thread convention vary by model and market — verify against the datasheet, especially for low-pressure or thermostatic applications.

Typical specification

Property	Typical value
Type	Manual single-lever or thermostatic; exposed or concealed
Material	Brass body typical, with ceramic-disc or thermostatic cartridge
Inlet connection	1/2" (DN15) hot and cold inlets (BSP/NPT per market)
Operating pressure	Typically ~0.5–5 bar; low-pressure versions available — confirm per model
Outlet	Shower outlet, and optional diverter to bath spout/handset
Temperature control	Ceramic mixing (manual) or thermostatic cartridge with anti-scald limit
Standard	Regional approvals (e.g., EN 1111 thermostatic / EN 817); confirm per market

Indicative / typical values for planning — actual products vary by manufacturer and standard. Confirm the final spec sheet before ordering; we do not publish fixed prices, request a quote for current offers.

Applications

Used in residential and hospitality showers and shower-baths, with concealed valves for a flush wall face and exposed valves for retrofit. Thermostatic versions suit shared or low-supply systems where scald protection matters.

What to specify when you request a quote

Manual vs. thermostatic, and whether anti-scald limiting is required.
Concealed vs. exposed body, plus inlet centres for exposed valves.
Available supply pressure — specify low-pressure trim for gravity systems.
Number of outlets/diverter functions (shower only, or shower + spout/handset).

FAQ

What is the difference between a manual and thermostatic shower mixer?

A manual mixer sets temperature by blending flows and can drift if supply pressure changes. A thermostatic mixer holds a set temperature and shuts down flow if the cold supply fails, providing anti-scald protection.

Will a shower mixer work on a low-pressure system?

Only if rated for it. Standard mixers may underperform on gravity/low-pressure supplies; specify a low-pressure or pumped-compatible model and confirm the minimum pressure on the datasheet.
