This Architeckt Modern Round Shower Valve in Silver is designed for homeowners looking to modernize their bathroom with a sleek, space-saving shower solution. Its key benefit is the enhanced shower experience provided by precise thermostatic temperature control and unobtrusive in-wall installation. A potential caveat for some users might be the minimum bar pressure requirement of 0.5 Bar for optimal performance. This valve features a concealed design, a minimalistic stick handle, solid brass construction, and a polished chrome finish, offering both durability and contemporary style.

The valve requires a minimum water pressure of 0.5 Bar to operate effectively and deliver optimal flow rates.
Yes, this valve is compatible with systems operating between 0.5 Bar and 5.0 Bar, which generally includes most combi-boiler systems and suitable power shower setups.
Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. A mild soap solution can be used for tougher spots, followed by rinsing and drying.
The shower valve is backed by a 10-year guarantee against manufacturing defects.
This product is for the concealed valve only. A compatible showerhead and hose would need to be purchased separately.
Due to the concealed in-wall nature of the installation, professional plumbing services are highly recommended for correct and safe fitting.
The valve has dimensions of Width 196mm, Depth 123mm, and Height 196mm. The pipe centres are 150mm plus or minus 18mm.
Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure the system pressure meets the minimum requirement of 0.5 Bar. Inspect the showerhead and valve for any blockages and clean if necessary.
Verify that the thermostatic control is functioning correctly. Ensure there are no other high-demand water appliances running simultaneously that might affect pressure. If issues persist, contact a professional plumber.
Ensure there are no obstructions around the handle. Periodically check for limescale buildup around moving parts. For persistent stiffness, professional servicing may be required.
Turn off the water supply immediately. Check all pipe connections for tightness. If the leak appears to be from the valve body itself, professional assessment or replacement may be necessary.
Setup:
This valve is designed for concealed in-wall installation. It requires a standard pipe connection with inlet sizes of SWM10" x M19" x 1". Ensure that your plumbing system can accommodate the 150mm pipe centres (adjustable by +/- 18mm). Professional installation is recommended for optimal and safe setup. The valve requires a minimum operating pressure of 0.5 Bar and a maximum of 5.0 Bar.
Compatibility:
While designed for general use, compatibility depends on your existing plumbing. The specified inlet and pipe centre measurements should be checked against your current setup. It features one outlet for a shower head or riser rail.
Care:
To maintain the polished chrome finish, clean the valve regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing and drying with a soft cloth.
