Where is it best to fit a recessed shower?

Recessed showers are perfect for installations where space is at a premium or where the customer wants to keep the shower area clear and uncluttered by pipework. If it’s not possible to fit a concealed shower, a mini valve could be a good alternative as these are also very compact and great for small spaces.

Can concealed showers be more difficult to service and maintain?

Once the shower valve has been installed in the cavity wall, the valve filters and the thermostatic cartridge are accessible from the front so rear access isn’t required for servicing and maintenance. So, a recessed shower is actually just as easy to service as any other shower product.

Are recessed showers suitable for family homes?


Yes. Bristan’s recessed showers are all fitted with thermostatic mixing valves to reduce the risk of scalding, ensuring they are safe for the whole family to use. Some of these thermostatic mixer showers also come with lever controls which are easy to operate – even for the very young or old, and those with limited dexterity in their hands.

Which systems do concealed showers perform best on?

A concealed shower can be used on any plumbing system but work at their best on a balanced system with a working pressure of 0.2 to 5 bar.
