This Nes Home shower set is ideal for those looking to upgrade their bathroom with a modern, minimalistic, and functional shower system. Its key benefit is the precise thermostatic temperature control and the dual-outlet design for a shower head and handset. A potential caveat for some users might be the concealed valve, which requires wall installation and may involve more complex plumbing than surface-mounted options.

The thermostatic valve operates between 20°C and 50°C, with a pre-set safety stop at 38°C.
Yes, the mixer valve features two outlet diverters, controlled by separate dials, allowing you to switch between the overhead shower head and the handheld handset.
The set is WRAS approved and designed for standard UK water pressures. It's recommended to ensure your system provides adequate hot and cold water flow for optimal performance.
Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly, then dry with a soft cloth.
A concealed valve means the main body of the mixer is installed within the wall, with only the controls and trim plate visible on the surface, creating a sleek, modern look.
The shower is equipped with an automatic shut-off feature that will stop the water flow in the event of a cold water supply failure, preventing scalding.
While the description focuses on the mixer valve and shower head set, it's typically assumed that standard shower arms and hoses for the handset and main head would be required or included in a full set. Please check the specific product listing for complete contents.
Ensure the thermostatic valve is functioning correctly. Check that the filters are clean and not blocked. Verify that the hot and cold water supplies are adequate and balanced. The chosen temperature should be within the 20-50°C operating range.
Check for blockages in the shower head or handset nozzles. Ensure the diverter is fully engaging the selected outlet. Clean the inlet filters on the thermostatic valve. Verify adequate water pressure from your main supply.
Ensure the control dial for the diverter is turned fully to select either the shower head or handset. The mechanism may require cleaning or professional inspection if it remains stiff or ineffective.
The 38°C safety button is a pre-set maximum. If it appears inaccurate, the thermostatic cartridge may need recalibration or replacement by a qualified professional.
This feature is designed to activate upon failure of the cold water supply. If it triggers during normal use, check your main water supply for interruptions or pressure drops. If the issue persists, contact a plumber.
Setup:
This is a concealed thermostatic mixer valve system, which typically requires professional plumbing installation. The valve unit is mounted behind the wall, with only the control plate and dials visible. Ensure that the wall cavity is adequate for the valve body and associated pipework. Connections will need to be made to both hot and cold water supplies, and to the outlets for the shower head and handset. The 300mm shower head and handset will also need to be connected via standard shower arms and hoses.
Compatibility:
The system operates within a range of 20-50°C and is designed for standard UK water supply pressures. It is WRAS approved, indicating compliance with UK water regulations. Ensure your home's hot and cold water systems can supply the required flow rates for optimal performance.
