Product Information

Full details

The Hudson Reed Revolution Industrial Concealed Thermostatic Shower Valve is designed for homeowners seeking a robust and stylish shower control with an industrial aesthetic and a versatile silver chrome finish. Its key benefit is providing accurate flow control and consistent water temperature for a comfortable showering experience, even in challenging water conditions due to its anti-limescale cartridge. A key consideration is that the shower head, handset, and other accessories are sold separately, requiring additional purchases for a complete system. This valve is suitable for all plumbing systems, ensuring broad compatibility.

Yes, the Hudson Reed Revolution Industrial Concealed Thermostatic Shower Valve does not include a shower head, handset, body jets, or outlet elbow. These must be purchased separately.

How do I clean the chrome finish?

Clean the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the surface.

Yes, it features a patented cartridge that is highly resistant to calcium build-up, making it an excellent choice for hard water areas.

What safety features does this valve have?

It offers full thermostatic protection to prevent scalding and will shut down in the event of water failure, as per relevant standards.

What is the warranty period for this shower valve?

The valve comes with a 20-year manufacturer's guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials, provided it is installed and used according to instructions.

Can I install this myself?

Due to its concealed nature and the need for precise plumbing connections, professional installation by a qualified plumber is highly recommended.

Troubleshooting

No hot water or cold water supply to the valve.

Check that the main water supply to the property is on and that the hot and cold water valves feeding the shower system are fully open. Ensure there are no blockages in the supply pipes.

Water temperature is too hot or too cold and cannot be adjusted.

Verify the thermostatic settings. If the issue persists, the thermostatic cartridge may need adjustment or replacement. Contact a qualified plumber.

Low water flow from the showerhead.

Ensure the main water supply is adequate. Check for blockages in the pipework leading to the showerhead. Clean the showerhead itself, as it may be clogged with debris or limescale.

Valve is dripping or leaking.

This often indicates a problem with the seals or the thermostatic cartridge. Turn off the water supply to the shower and contact a qualified plumber for inspection and repair.

Thermostatic safety feature is not engaging (no shutdown on water failure).

This is a critical safety issue. Immediately cease using the shower and contact a qualified plumber to inspect and repair the valve's safety mechanisms.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

This is a concealed valve, meaning the main body is installed within the wall cavity. Professional installation by a qualified plumber is highly recommended to ensure correct fitting and connection to your plumbing system. Ensure the wall cavity is adequately prepared to house the valve and allow for future access if necessary.

Compatibility:

The Hudson Reed Revolution Industrial Concealed Thermostatic Shower Valve is designed for universal compatibility. It is suitable for:

  • Gravity Fed Systems
  • Pumped Systems
  • Unvented Systems
  • High Pressure Systems
  • Fully Modulated Combi-Boilers

Ensure your chosen shower head, handset, and other outlets are compatible with your water pressure and system type.

Care:

To maintain the silver chrome finish and optimal performance:

  1. Cleaning: Regularly clean the valve trim with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the chrome finish.
  2. Limescale: While the cartridge is resistant to limescale, periodic checks are still advised, especially in extremely hard water areas. Gently wipe the trim with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner if any build-up is noticed.
  3. Servicing: In line with general plumbing maintenance, consider having the internal components checked periodically by a professional, especially if you notice any performance degradation.
