Product Information

Full details

The SaniteModar Concealed Shower Set is designed for homeowners and renovators seeking a minimalist, modern bathroom aesthetic without sacrificing functionality. This premium system provides the luxury of a dual-shower setup, featuring a fixed overhead shower and a convenient hand shower, all controlled by a reliable thermostatic mixer valve to ensure consistent water temperatures. While it offers a sleek, space-saving design, prospective buyers should note that installation requires wall concealment, which may necessitate professional plumbing assistance for those without experience in behind-the-wall plumbing modifications.

FAQs

Can I install this in a stud wall?

Yes, but you must ensure there is adequate support within the wall to mount the brass valve securely.

Is the temperature limiter adjustable?

Yes, most thermostatic valves have an adjustable limit stop to prevent the water from reaching temperatures that are too hot.

Does this set include the rough-in valve?

Yes, the system is designed as a complete set including the necessary internal components.

How do I switch between the overhead and hand shower?

The set typically includes a diverter integrated into the control plate, allowing you to toggle the water flow easily.

What is the best way to descale the shower head?

Soak the head in a vinegar and water solution, or use a specialized limescale remover compatible with chrome finishes.

Is this shower set suitable for low-pressure gravity systems?

It is recommended to check the specific pressure requirements for your model; some thermostatic valves perform better with balanced, higher-pressure systems.

Troubleshooting

Water temperature is fluctuating

Ensure the supply lines are not blocked and the filters in the thermostatic valve are clear of debris.

Shower spray pattern is uneven

Gently rub the silicone nozzles on the shower head to dislodge any limescale or mineral deposits.

Low water pressure

Check that the stop valves are fully open and verify that your home's water pressure meets the minimum requirements for the valve.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek and modern aesthetic due to concealed plumbing
  • Thermostatic control ensures stable water temperature
  • Versatile dual-shower setup with overhead and hand spray options
  • Durable stainless steel and brass construction
  • Easy-to-clean chrome finish

Cons

  • Requires significant wall work for concealed installation
  • May require professional plumbing installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of this system should be planned during a bathroom renovation or a major plumbing project, as it requires recessing the valve into the wall structure. Ensure your bathroom plumbing supports standard pressure requirements for thermostatic valves.

Installation Steps:

  1. Measure and cut the wall cavity to house the thermostatic valve body.
  2. Secure the brass valve into the wall and connect hot and cold water supply lines.
  3. Install the pipework leading to the overhead shower arm and the hand shower outlet.
  4. Ensure all connections are watertight before closing the wall and tiling.
  5. Mount the chrome faceplate and control handles.

Care Instructions: To maintain the chrome finish, clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can dull the shine or damage the protective layer. If you live in a hard-water area, periodically wipe down the silicone spray nozzles on the shower head to prevent mineral buildup.
