Perrin & Rowe - Classical example shower layout 3C

We've taken the guess work out of creating the perfect Perrin & Rowe shower experience. The hardest choice you'll make is the finish.

The Perrin & Rowe Example Shower Layout 3C comprises an overhead shower arm, shower rose and a pressure balanced mixer.

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 pressure balanced shower mixer means a consistent flow even if taps are turned on and off elsewhere in the home. The pressure balance valve fitted into the Perrin & Rowe shower mixer is sensitive to changes in incoming water pressure and thus provides safe showering. The pressure balance valve is a sophisticated plumbing device which ensures that the volume of mixed water which leaves the shower mixer is a constant mix of the hot and cold supplies, even if the delivery pressure of one of them changes. In the event of a drop in the hot or cold water supply, the output of the shower will immediately reduce to the pressure of the lowest supply line.

Pressure balancing shower mixers are suited to most systems. A minimum inlet pressure of 1 bar/100 kPa is required to achieve adequate performance. Accordingly, some gravity fed systems may not be suitable for pressure balanced shower mixers. The maximum inlet pressure is 5 bar/500 kPa.

The faceplate on the mixer includes a discreet red and blue dot to indicate hot or cold as well as the etched Perrin & Rowe insignia.

The white porcelain lever can be changed to a black porcelain lever or to matching metal to complement the finish of the taps if desired.
