Architeckt Shower Valves

If your pipework already comes through the wall and you want a simpler fit, an exposed valve suits you because the pipes remain visible. If you prefer a sleek, minimalist look and have room in the wall, a concealed valve hides most of the plumbing for a cleaner finish, the Architeckt Round Thermostatic Concealed Shower Valve is an example. Exposed valves are often easier to access for servicing, while concealed valves give a neater aesthetic that works well in modern bathrooms.

Architeckt valves are designed to work seamlessly with Architeckt showers, so they're the safest match for form and function. You can also use them to replace other manufacturers valves, but you should check your inlet centres and outlet positions first, the bottom outlet bar mixer routes water downwards to feed a hand shower hose. If your pipe layout matches the valve configuration, it will usually fit fine.

A thermostatic valve keeps your shower at a steady temperature by automatically compensating for changes in hot or cold supply, so you avoid sudden scalding or chilling. That makes thermostatic models, such as the Round Thermostatic options in our range, a good choice if you have children, elderly users or fluctuating mains pressure. The result is a more comfortable, consistent shower every time.

Valves with multiple outlets let you feed more than one outlet from a single valve, an overhead shower and a hand shower, or body jets and a fixed head. If you want flexibility in a family bathroom or a spa-style setup, a multi-outlet valve is practical; the range highlights valves with several outlet options and configurations. For a simple upgrade, a single-outlet bottom outlet bar mixer is usually sufficient.

If you want a timeless, easy-to-match option, chrome suits most schemes and is available across the range; choose black if you prefer a contemporary, statement look as offered by the round black bar mixer. Prices run at a lower to mid-range price point for the bar mixer models to at a lower price point for the concealed thermostatic valve, so pick a finish and function based on how much you use the shower and the overall look you want. If you need temperature stability and safety as well as style, the higher-priced thermostatic concealed valve is a sensible investment.
