This Affine Park Lane Traditional Exposed Mixer Shower in black is designed for homeowners seeking to add timeless sophistication and reliable performance to their traditional bathrooms. Its key benefit is precise thermostatic control ensuring a safe and consistent water temperature, while its classic detailing offers significant aesthetic appeal. A potential caveat is the minimum water pressure requirement of 0.5 Bar, which may necessitate a booster pump in some properties. The shower features a durable solid brass body, traditional cross head valves, a large round drencher head for a rainfall effect, and an adjustable handset. A standout feature is its dual shower capability, allowing simultaneous use of both the overhead and handheld shower heads.

Verify that the hot and cold water supply pipes are correctly connected to the mixer valve. Check that both hot and cold water supplies are functioning correctly at other outlets. If connections are correct and supplies are working, the valve may require servicing or replacement.
