Product Information

Full details

The Hansgrohe Ecostat Square is an ideal choice for homeowners and designers looking for a high-performance, minimalist thermostatic control for modern bathroom shower systems. It offers precise temperature regulation and dual-outlet functionality for a streamlined showering experience, though it requires professional installation as it is designed specifically for concealed, in-wall mounting using the compatible rough-in set.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this valve come with the rough-in set?

No, the Hansgrohe Ecostat Square requires the 01800180 rough-in body, which must be purchased separately.

What is the maximum temperature of this valve?

The valve includes a safety stop at 40°C, but it features an adjustable temperature limitation to set higher or lower limits as needed.

Can I use this for a bathtub?

While it is primarily designed for shower systems, it can be used for any two-function application in a bathroom, provided it meets the installation requirements.

Is this product suitable for low-pressure systems?

The Ecostat Square operates between 1 bar and 10 bar, so ensure your system provides at least 1 bar of pressure for optimal performance.

What does 'noise class I' mean?

This signifies that the valve has been tested to meet strict standards for quiet operation, ensuring minimal noise transmission through your plumbing system.

Troubleshooting

Water temperature is fluctuating

Check that the water pressure is balanced between hot and cold supplies; ensure the thermostatic cartridge is clear of debris.

The diverter is difficult to turn

Mineral deposits may be affecting the valve; consider professional descaling or inspecting the diverter mechanism.

Flow rate is lower than expected

Verify that all supply lines are fully open and check for obstructions in the piping or the shower outlets.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Precise thermostatic temperature regulation
  • Sleek, modern square profile in polished chrome
  • Scald-protection safety lock included
  • High flow performance suitable for rainfall shower heads
  • Reliable shut-off and diverter functionality in one unit

Cons

  • Requires purchase of separate rough-in set (01800180)
  • Professional plumbing installation highly recommended
  • Concealed design makes maintenance access more complex than exposed valves

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Ecostat Square requires the `01800180` rough-in body, which must be installed within the wall cavity prior to fitting the decorative exterior trim. Always consult with a certified plumber to ensure the connection type and pipe positioning meet local building codes.

Care Instructions:

  • Clean the chrome finish using a soft cloth and mild soap.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that can damage the polished surface.
  • Periodically check the function of the diverter to ensure smooth movement.
  • If the area has hard water, monitor the unit for scale buildup and descale as needed to maintain performance.
