Bar mixer shower

[rocketmanbkk]

Hello Friends

I've go to take off a bar mixer shower and replace it. Landlord doesn't know make, its a cheap one I think!!

So, the pipe centres should be 150mm.

I've seen showers with +\- 5mm.

Anyone know of one of these that are cheap? I'm talking £40 or less?

I can't trust the chap who put it in to have the 150mm spot on.

With the standard bar mixers with 150mm how exact are they?

Don't want any dramas here, wanna get it off, new one on and get out as tenants a bit of a nuisance!!

Thanks all.

His choice.

It will make sure u know what's coming out of wall. Male 1/2 or 3/4 or is it 15mm? Almost all showers are 150mm and some come with offsets to help compensate for messes. Cheapest one we fit is a Bristan thermostatic and costs about £55 inc. try screwfix have some lovely swirl ones!!

Cheers. From what's on the wall it looks 15mm pipe but whether a its 150mm is a lottery?
