Gainsborough Mixer Showers

If you struggle to leave the house without a shower in the morning then you might want to consider Gainsborough mixer showers. They’re without a doubt one of the most refreshing showers you’ll use first thing in the morning, especially if you’ve got a high pressure water system, and then when you get home crank up the heat and sooth the day away. Gainsborough showers are built to a very high standard and come with added protection from limescale for those hard water areas.

Exactly Why You Should Have a Mixer Shower

Gainsborough mixer showers are the perfect all-rounders of the showering world. They’re beautifully stylish and minimalistic, easy to fit and easy to use, and finally safe for all the family to use.

You can choose from either concealed or exposed valve types depending on your preference and installation requirements, both of which are thermostatic. Thermostatic valves keep the temperature of water constant no matter how many other water outlets are in use, providing you with a shower you can trust regardless of the sensitivity of your skin.

They’re also great for areas which have hard water. Limescale defences are powerful and keep your shower running better for longer. The valve bodies are made from solid brass for durability and finished in a delightfully luxurious polished chrome finish, ideal for complementing any style of bathroom.

How do I decide between a bar mixer shower and an exposed mixer shower for my bathroom?

A bar mixer gives you a neat rail with a fixed head and handset options and is ideal if you want a modern, integrated look with thermostatic control. An exposed mixer, like the GSME sequential exposed mixer, sits on the wall surface and is simpler and often cheaper, useful if you want a straightforward upgrade without chasing in-wall plumbing. If you have a combi/high-pressure boiler you'll get the best performance from either option; pick a bar mixer if you want dual-head rainfall plus handset control, and choose an exposed mixer for a cost-effective, easy-to-access valve.

My home has a combination boiler — will these Gainsborough mixer showers work well with that system?

Yes. Four of the Gainsborough mixers are specified for HP / Combi systems, so they're designed to run off mains pressure from a combi boiler and deliver strong, consistent spray. There is also one model described as suitable for all systems if you need wider compatibility. If you have a combi, the thermostatic bar mixers with dual heads will give you the best flow and a fuller rainfall experience.

What are the benefits of a thermostatic mixer compared with a manual mixer?

Thermostatic mixers automatically blend hot and cold to hold your chosen temperature and react to pressure changes, so you won't get sudden scalding or cooling when another tap is used. Manual mixers give you direct control over flow and temperature but need you to fine-tune them and won't protect against spikes. If you have children or value stable comfort, thermostatic with cool touch is the safer, more relaxed choice.

How important is cool touch and limescale protection for me?

Cool touch valves keep the external valve surface comfortable to touch, which is useful for families or vulnerable users and adds a safety layer. Limescale protection is built into Gainsborough showers to reduce blockages in hard water areas, so jets and nozzles stay clearer for longer and maintenance intervals are longer. If you live in a hard-water area or want minimal upkeep, prioritise a model with both cool touch and limescale protection.

How do I choose between a single outlet handset and a dual-head (rainfall + handset) setup?

Single-outlet handsets are compact and great for smaller enclosures or if you mostly want a practical rinse. Dual-head bar mixers offer a rainfall head for a spa-like shower and a handset for targeted rinsing, giving greater flexibility for different moods or tasks. pick a dual-head thermostatic bar mixer if you enjoy a leisurely rainfall shower but still need the handset for rinsing hair or cleaning the tray.
