Product Information

Full details

The NES Home 3-Way Exposed Thermostatic Shower Mixer is designed for homeowners and renovators seeking a versatile, modern showering solution that combines safety with contemporary style. Its standout benefit is the precise temperature control provided by the thermostatic valve, which prevents accidental scalding, though users should note that installation requires a wall-mounted exposed pipe configuration. This unit delivers a complete bathing experience by integrating a rainfall showerhead, an adjustable handset, and a dedicated bath filler in a durable matte black finish.

FAQs

Can I use the bath filler and showerhead at the same time?

This unit is designed as a 3-way mixer, typically allowing only one outlet to be active at a time to maintain water pressure.

Is the matte black finish prone to scratching?

While the finish is durable, it should be treated with care; avoid using abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemicals to preserve the matte look.

Does this include the pipework for inside the wall?

This is an exposed mixer kit; it connects to your existing wall-mounted water supplies. Internal plumbing should be completed before installing the bar valve.

Is there a safety stop on the temperature knob?

Yes, the thermostatic valve includes a safety override button to prevent accidental selection of dangerously hot temperatures.

Can I adjust the height of the rainfall head?

The kit features an adjustable riser rail for the handset; however, the fixed overhead rainfall shower position is typically set during the initial installation.

Troubleshooting

Water temperature fluctuates during use

Check your plumbing system for adequate supply pressure or ensure the filters inside the thermostatic cartridge are free of debris.

Flow from the rainfall head is weak

Clear the nozzle outlets of limescale and ensure the diverter is fully engaged to the overhead setting.

Leaking from the bar valve knobs

Tighten the retaining nuts or contact a professional to inspect the internal O-rings.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Precise thermostatic temperature management for safety
  • Comprehensive 3-in-1 functionality (shower, handset, bath)
  • Durable and stylish matte black finish
  • Adjustable components for customized shower height and angle

Cons

  • Requires exposed wall plumbing connection
  • Matte black finish may show water spots more than chrome
  • Professional plumbing installation is recommended for optimal performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a standard exposed shower plumbing setup with dual wall inlets. Ensure your water system meets the necessary pressure requirements for an exposed thermostatic bar valve.

Maintenance Tips:

  • Cleaning: Clean the matte black finish weekly using a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap. Avoid acidic or bleach-based cleaners that may strip the finish.
  • Descaling: Depending on your water hardness, you may need to occasionally soak the showerhead and handset nozzles in a water-and-vinegar solution to prevent mineral buildup.
  • Check Seals: Periodically inspect connection points to ensure all washers and gaskets remain watertight.
