Product Information
Full details
The Rea Foster Concealed Shower Set is designed for homeowners and interior designers seeking a minimalist, modern bathroom aesthetic without sacrificing functionality. Its standout benefit is the seamless integration of a single-lever mixer and dual-output system that balances elegance with intuitive control, though users should note that the flush-mounted installation requires professional plumbing expertise for proper setup.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Does this set include the valve and mounting box?
Yes, the product comes as a complete set including the necessary flush-mounted box and internal mixer mechanism.
Can I use this with any standard plumbing system?
The set is designed for standard residential water systems, but we recommend checking that your wall depth is sufficient for the concealed box.
How do I maintain the brushed copper finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners to maintain the integrity of the PVD finish.
Is the handheld sprayer hose long enough for cleaning the whole shower?
The included hose provides standard length, sufficient for most shower enclosures, though it is intended primarily for personal washing.
What is PVD coating?
Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) is a high-tech coating process that bonds the finish to the metal at a molecular level, making it highly resistant to scratches and corrosion.
Troubleshooting
Low water pressure from the overhead rain head
Check the filter screens for debris and ensure the plumbing lines are not kinked behind the concealed box.
Mixer lever feels loose or stiff
Tighten or loosen the internal mounting screw behind the decorative plate, ensuring the cartridge is seated correctly.
Water dripping from the rain head after turning off
This is often normal drainage due to the design of the head; however, if it persists, ensure the diverter cartridge is fully closing.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Foster set requires the mounting box to be fully recessed into the wall behind your chosen tiling or paneling. Because this is a concealed system, ensure your plumbing infrastructure is compatible with the unit's connection points before beginning construction.
Care Instructions:
- Rinse off soap residue after every use to prevent buildup.
- Regularly wipe the surface with a soft microfiber cloth to preserve the brushed copper finish.
- Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges that could compromise the PVD coating.
- Gently rub the anti-calc nozzles with your thumb periodically to break up any mineral deposits caused by hard water.
