Perrin & Rowe - Classical example outdoor shower layout 12A

Install a bare brass outdoor shower at your beach house and leave the elements to do the rest! Perrin & Rowe make tapware and shower fittings specifically for use outdoors from uncoated bare brass which will improve with exposure to the elements, developing characteristic verdigris, without losing functionality. When left uncoated, high quality brass develops a golden patina which complements natural coastal elements and organic stones like granite, marble and limestone.

The Perrin & Rowe Example Shower Layout 12B comprises a shower rose on riser pipe with two handle combination mixer and riser mounted handshower and diverter.

Shower roses come in three diameters with the 200mm being the most popular. The standard rose has a perforated plate and, when calcification is a problem in hard water areas, specify the Easyclean version with rubber holes.

The overall riser height is 1300mm (1000mm above the handshower diverter, and 200mm below) and it extends 400mm outwards from a 90° bend.

It attaches at the base to the Perrin & Rowe combination mixer and at the top fits any Perrin & Rowe shower rose.

The riser mounted diverter can be inserted into the riser pipe to allow a choice of water flow between an overhead shower rose and a handshower. The handshower sits on a parking bracket which can slide up and down on the riser pipe above the diverter. Handshowers on sliding rails are ideal for a growing family, and excellent for easy cleaning around the shower box.

The two handle combination mixer is ideal for driving this all-in-one exposed shower. The white porcelain levers can be changed to black porcelain levers or matching metal to complement the finish of the taps if desired. The handles feature a small red and blue dot to indicate hot and cold.

When choosing products for outside use, make sure they will withstand the external environment.
