Elite Bathroom Taps – From Crosswater

Newest launch for Crosswater is the Elite bathroom taps, again small as a range but as with the Crosswater way of thinking it is very individual and is designed with the precision you have come to expect from Crosswater.

The Elite side lever mono bloc basin mixer feels like it has been moulded into its shape and must be one of the most practical designs I have seen for years cleaning almost with one sweep of a cloth there is no fuss about the shape at all. With the other items in the range of bathroom taps and mixers you get the same clean edge of design although as with some of the latest releases coming out of KBB Birmingham this year there are only five items to choose from adding to the basin mixer is the tall monobloc basin mixer, the monobloc bath filler a monobloc bath shower mixer with pull out hose and handset and a single bath spout which is deck mounted.

The basin mixer is available from Tapstore.com for a special offer of just £182.99 so if you want to see this and the rest of the range click here.

Crosswater Click – bathroom taps

Click is one of Crosswaters new ranges of bathroom taps which was launched at KBB Birmingham this March, at present it is available as a monobloc basin mixer, bath shower mixer and a bath filler only but I am sure if it proves to be a success the range will be extended further into shower valves and other taps and mixers.

I really like the shape of the spout and the flat handles giving a neat easy to grip handle.

All the items are designed to work well on a low pressure system needing only 0.2bar to operate and will work well with all high pressure systems as well.

The basin mixer tap comes with out a pop up waste so you will need to add a clicker waste or free flow waste to complete the look.

The Click basin mixer is RRP £199.00, The Bath shower mixer is RRP £419.00 and the Bath filler is £359.00.

Bristan Chill Showers.

There are four opinions for the shower, the first option pictured to the left is a thermostatic shower valve that can be mounted either on the surface or recessed into the wall, it comes complete with a riser rail kit and a really neat stylish single function shower handset.

In the recessed only options which are also thermostatic you have the choice of a dual function with a flow control and a temperature control handle ideal for either a shower kit or a fixed position shower head, then there is a shower valve with diverter so two items can be controlled and my favorite the three way valve (pictured right) which is the same as the diverter option with the added bonus of a stop cock on/off control fitted below the thermostat that can be used simultaneously with either of the top outlets or individually on its own.
