A concealed thermostatic shower valve has two components: a valve body installed within the wall during first fix (before tiling), and a decorative control plate fitted after tiling. Only the control plate is visible once installed, giving a clean, minimalist look with no exposed pipework. The thermostatic element automatically maintains your selected water temperature, compensating for pressure fluctuations and providing anti-scald protection. What does 2 exit mean? A 2-exit valve has two separate outlet ports, each with its own on/off control. This allows you to connect two different shower outlets — for example, a fixed overhead shower head and a handheld shower, or an overhead head and body jets — and switch between them or run them simultaneously. Are shower heads and accessories included? No — the valve and control plate are included, but shower heads, handsets, rails, arms, and body jets are sold separately. When does the valve body need to be installed? The valve body must be installed during first fix — before plastering and tiling. The control plate is fitted after tiling is complete. Professional installation is essential. Where is this valve designed and made? The Kite collection is designed in Britain and manufactured in Italy, combining British design heritage with Italian manufacturing precision. How do I extend the guarantee to 15 years? Register your product with Abode after purchase. Details are included in the guarantee documentation supplied with the valve. Can I order if the item shows as out of stock? Yes — available to order even when stock shows zero. Contact us on 01603 381095 to confirm lead time.

A wall mounted tap is fixed directly to the wall rather than to the basin or bath deck. The hot and cold water pipes are concealed within the wall, with only the tap body and spout visible. This creates a clean, minimalist look with no taps on the basin or bath surround, making it easier to clean and giving a more spacious feel. Wall mounted taps are particularly popular with freestanding baths and wall-hung basins. Can this tap be used for both a basin and a bath? Yes — the Kite wall mounted mixer is designed for dual application and can be used with both basins and baths. The spout reach and height should be checked against your specific basin or bath dimensions to ensure comfortable use. If you're unsure, call us on 01603 381095. What is the minimum water pressure required? The Abode Kite wall mounted mixer operates from a minimum of 0.75 bar, making it suitable for gravity-fed systems, combi boilers, and mains pressure supplies. This is lower than the deck-mounted Kite basin mixer (1.0 bar) but higher than the bath filler with panel valves (0.2 bar). Do I need a plumber to install a wall mounted tap? Yes — professional installation is strongly recommended for wall mounted taps. The hot and cold supply pipes must be positioned within the wall at the correct centres before tiling, as they cannot be adjusted afterwards. Incorrect pipe positioning is the most common installation error with wall mounted taps. What finishes are available? The Kite wall mounted mixer is available in polished chrome (£189) and antique brass (£239). Select your preferred finish from the dropdown above. Where is this tap designed and made? Designed in Britain and manufactured in Italy, combining British design heritage with Italian manufacturing precision and craftsmanship. How do I extend the guarantee to 15 years? The tap comes with a 2-year standard guarantee. Register your product with Abode after purchase to extend to 15 years. Details are included in the guarantee documentation supplied with the tap. Can I order if the item shows as out of stock? Yes — available to order even when stock shows zero. Contact us on 01603 381095 to confirm lead time.

Complete the Kite Collection Abode Kite Standard Basin Mixer Tap — chrome or antique brass, for standard inset basins, from £159 Abode Kite Bath Filler with Panel Valves — chrome or antique brass, 0.2 bar min, from £215 Frequently Asked Questions What is a tall basin mixer tap? A tall basin mixer tap has an elevated spout height compared to a standard basin mixer. This extra height is necessary for countertop basins and vessel sinks, which sit above the worktop surface — a standard-height tap would not provide enough clearance for comfortable hand washing. How do I know if I need a tall or standard basin mixer? If your basin is a countertop or vessel basin (sitting on top of the worktop), you need a tall tap. If your basin is a standard inset basin (set into the worktop or on a pedestal), you need a standard-height tap. See the Abode Kite Standard Basin Mixer. What is the minimum water pressure required? The Abode Kite Tall Basin Mixer requires a minimum of 1.0 bar. It is designed for mains pressure and pressurised systems and is not suitable for gravity-fed or low-pressure systems. Is this tap suitable for a combi boiler? Yes — compatible with combination boilers and mains pressure systems. Requires a minimum of 1.0 bar, which is standard for combi boiler installations. Where is this tap designed and made? Designed in Britain and manufactured in Italy, combining British design heritage with Italian manufacturing precision. How do I extend the guarantee to 15 years?

Panel valves are separate hot and cold tap controls mounted on the bath deck alongside the filler spout. Unlike a monobloc mixer where both controls are combined in a single unit, panel valves provide individual hot and cold handles — giving a traditional, period-authentic look and precise temperature control. They are a hallmark of classic British bathroom design. What is the minimum water pressure required? The Abode Kite bath filler operates from a minimum of 0.2 bar, making it suitable for gravity-fed systems, low-pressure supplies, and period properties. What finishes are available? Chrome (£215) and Antique Brass (£289). Select your preferred finish from the dropdown above. How many tap holes does my bath need? This bath filler requires two tap holes in the bath deck — one for the hot panel valve and one for the cold panel valve. Ensure your bath has two pre-drilled tap holes before ordering. Is this tap suitable for a freestanding bath? Yes — provided your freestanding bath has two deck-mounted tap holes. Ensure the tap hole centres match the valve fixing centres before ordering. If you’re unsure, call us on 01603 381095. Where is this tap designed and made? The Kite collection is designed in Britain and manufactured in Italy, combining British design heritage with Italian manufacturing precision. How do I extend the guarantee to 15 years?
