Exposed thermostatic bath mixer in 316L stainless steel

A thermostatic cartridge, rather than a manual lever, holds the water at the temperature it is set to, which is what this exposed bath mixer is built around: a 38°C safety stop limits how far the dial can be turned without deliberately overriding it, useful over a bath used by children or in a commercial setting where guests won't know the system. The mixer is exposed rather than concealed, wall-fitted in 316L stainless steel with non-return valves built into the connection.

Key features

• Thermostatic cartridge holds a set temperature instead of drifting as pressure changes.
• 38°C safety stop guards against scalding without a second control to operate.
• Anti-limescale cartridge and aerator reduce servicing in hard-water areas.
• Non-return valves at the connection stop backflow between hot and cold feeds.

Specification and installation

Being exposed, the body fixes to the wall face with a G1/2" connection rather than needing a chased-in valve, so it suits a bathroom refit where opening the wall isn't an option. The spout carries an M18.5x1 anti-limescale aerator, and the mixer belongs to the Tevere collection, so it can be specified with that range's shower fittings and accessories. It is offered in Brushed, Copper PVD, Black PVD and Gold PVD.
