Hi,
I'm having a new bathroom installed and having issues getting the right bath/shower set up. Shower has to be over bath as no space for a seperate one. We have kids who have baths and need it to be easy for them to rinse their hair during them. AT present we have a lovely Victorian style bath/shower mixer tap where the hand-set sits in a cradle on top of the taps - excellent for our bath needs but it isn't much good for showering as no thermostatic valve and the temperature fluctuates too much. We need a better showering set up, but the shower controls still need to be reachable from sitting in the bath so that people can rinse their hair in the bath without standing up. I would really like to keep a bath/shower mixer with hand-set in cradle and just have one with a thermostatic valve to solve the temperature fluctuation issues, and add a slider rail for when people are using it to have a shower. But I can hardly find any of these bath/shower mixers with a thermostatic valve, and none at all that I actually like the look of. So my question is, can a thermostatic valve be fitted in some way? This is the kind of thing I am looking at.
