This Bristan 1901 Recessed Thermostatic Dual Control Shower Valve is ideal for homeowners seeking a modern shower experience with a classic aesthetic. Its key benefit is providing precise temperature control and the flexibility to switch between two shower outlets with a single unit, all while being serviceable from the front. A potential caveat is its requirement for a minimum water pressure of 0.2 Bar for optimal performance.

Check that the water supply is on and that the pressure meets the minimum requirement (0.2 Bar). Ensure the diverter is correctly set to the desired outlet and that no pipework is kinked or blocked.
