Roper Rhodes Event Mixer Shower

The Roper Rhodes Event thermostatic shower valve has to be the best value shower valve around at present it is a recessed shower valve that is dual control, so it has a separate flow and temperature control.

It has been made to compliment Roper Rhodes current range but would also sit very neatly next to lots of other brands of single lever bathroom taps and showers.

It has a diverter that can operate two separate items from the one valve, for example you could use it to control a fixed shower head and a shower handset on a riser rail (shower kit), all this and it come with a 10 year guarantee.

It is currently on offer at Tapstore.com for just £107.00 you can find out more by clicking here.

Roper Rhodes Factor Showers

Roper Rhodes have added the Factor range of showers to their portfolio again a square design as seems to be with most of the newest arrivals, neat and tidy is what comes to mind when describing the Factor range.

Roper Rhodes Factor shower valves are all thermostatic with choices of either a surface bar valves or recessed concealed valve. with the Factor bar shower valve you have a choice of either top or bottom outlet shower valves the top outlet being used with a rigid riser where you could use a diverter if required,and the bottom outlet is used for a shower hose connecting to a shower kit of some sort.

The Factor concealed shower valves are a choice of either a straight single outlet shower valve with the Factor dual control inline valve which you can use with either a fixed shower head or a riser rail kit, or you could use the Factor triple valve which is in fact a two outlet shower valve that can be used to run a variety of devices.

All in all a very cheap range of  showers for your money, the best prices are to be found by clicking here.

Hydra Bathroom Taps

Roper Rhodes Hydra bathroom taps are a brand new edition to their collections, it is simply a really well priced designer range of taps and mixers.

What I like apart from the price is the design, its wide waterfall styled spout and handle that follows perfectly, it has a squared body and all the great function of all the other Roper Rhodes ranges like a built in temperature and  flow limiter that can be adjusted to suit the installation.

Hydra is not a huge range but covers the minimum requirement, in the collection is the Hydra mini mono basin mixer and the Hydra basin mixer in the picture to the right, the Hydra bath filler and the Hydra bath shower mixer which comes complete with a contemporary square shower handset and hose.

Cheap bathroom taps by price but not by design…

The chroming quality is very good something to look out for in cheaper ranges, the flow rate on the low pressure items is better than most other low pressure models of single lever mixer taps, for a mass produced Chinese import product the consistency of brass casting is very good, and the valve technology is exceptional the ceramic disc cartridge mixing valve for the mono-bloc basin mixer has a flow limiter built in restricting the volume of water that can be used (especially required for higher pressure systems) the temperature on the hot side can also be restricted making hotter stored water safer to use.

Products in the Storm bathroom tap range: *Note the basin mixers come both with and without pop up wastes.
