Shower Set With Hand Shower

Dual-outlet shower kits bring great comfort and flexible washing into modern British homes. Consequently, UK homeowners buy a shower set to combine overhead rainfall with handy spray wands. A slim hand spray lets you rinse down shower trays and wash pets fast. Furthermore, wide drench heads spread gentle warm water drops over your whole body. Orders ship out fast to your front door with free UK mainland delivery. Choosing a two-way spray unit lifts daily washing comfort while adding good home value.

Good water flow and combi boiler setup for a shower set

Smooth internal brass channels push water fast to the main head and handset. Therefore, these units run with ease on combi boilers and unvented hot cylinders. Smart valve design stops annoying water drops when cold taps run in other rooms. Moreover, fast thermostatic mixer cartridges shut down flow if the cold water pipe fails. Certified WRAS brass parts match all British water safety rules for clean drinking supplies. Steady water pressure gives you a warm, strong spray every single day of the year.

Easy trade fitting steps for twin outlet shower sets

Installing a dual-outlet shower unit is simple and quick for certified trade plumbers. Accordingly, fitters use standard half-inch pipe threads for a tight, leak-free connection. Sliding brackets on the handset riser rail help plumbers use old wall drill holes. Clean, leak-free fitting always follows these simple trade steps:

• Flush out the water pipes well to clear tiny metal bits and grit.

• Mount the heavy brass valve body level between solid timber wall studs.

• Wrap plumber tape around male pipe threads to prevent tiny water leaks.

• Test pipe joints under full boiler water pressure before you tile the wall.

Importantly, variable bracket centres save you from drilling fresh holes into costly wall tiles. Thus, careful trade fitting stops wall leaks and keeps pipe joints completely dry.

Pairing your shower set across other bathroom collections

Matching your metal finishes helps link bathroom styles across the whole family home. Alternatively, connect your new handset kit to built-in shower valves. Finding spare hoses or drench arms in shower heads, rails and parts is simple. Choosing items from our luxury shower sets brings a chic look to master en-suite rooms. Fitting a multi-outlet bath filler shower lets you fill big tubs fast. Adding vintage traditional showers brings classic crosshead charm to older period homes. Choosing relaxing showers with body jets gives you a soothing home water massage. So, picking matched fittings gives your family bathroom a neat, balanced look.

Limescale care and cleaning for a modern shower set

Hard tap water can leave chalky white lime marks inside tiny spray holes. For example, soft rubber nozzles on rainfall heads clear scale with a thumb rub. Smooth chrome and dark coats protect the solid metal body from humid room air. Meanwhile, strong anti-kink flexi hoses stop the inner rubber tube from splitting under twists. Wiping the metal rail with a soft cloth keeps the shiny finish bright. A modern shower set gives your family reliable, warm showers for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dual Shower Sets

How does the diverter switch between the head and hand spray?

Internal diverter valves use smooth ceramic discs to steer water to your chosen spray. Consequently, turning the control knob directs flow from the overhead head to the hand spray. A positive mechanical click locks your chosen water path firmly into place. Besides, modern two-way valves hold full flow without leaking through the closed spray hole.

Can a dual shower set run on a low-pressure water system?

Twin-outlet shower units work best when supplied with at least one bar of pressure. As a result, older gravity-fed tank systems can cause weak flow from big rainfall heads. Plumbers solve this fast by fitting an electric booster pump onto the supply pipes. Thus, boosted pipe pressure ensures a strong, warm spray from both shower outlets.

Why is WRAS approval important for a dual shower set?

WRAS testing proves that shower parts meet strict UK water safety laws and bylaws. Naturally, certified brass valves use safe metals that never taint clean drinking water lines. Approved units also stop used bath water from flowing back into fresh water mains. Indeed, buying WRAS parts ensures easy approval from UK home building checks.

How high should fitters place the hand shower rail on the wall?

Plumbers usually fix the hand spray rail around one metre above the shower tray. Furthermore, sliding handset holders let adults and young kids adjust the spray height freely. Mounting the rail within easy arm reach makes washing hair and rinsing screens simple. Careful rail placement ensures comfortable daily use for every member of the family.
