Premium Concealed Thermostatic Shower with Chesterfield-Inspired Design
The Abode Kite Concealed Shower brings British design sensibility to your bathroom with a distinctly contemporary aesthetic inspired by classic Chesterfield proportions. This Italian-crafted fixture delivers a refined, statement-making presence that bridges heritage and modernity. Engineered with a premium thermostatic valve, it maintains precise temperature control for enhanced safety and comfort during every use.
Dual Exit Configuration
The 2-exit design offers exceptional versatility, allowing you to control two separate shower outlets independently. Connect a fixed overhead shower and handheld shower, or combine a shower head with body jets for a luxurious showering experience. The dual controls provide independent on/off operation for each outlet, giving you complete flexibility over your shower configuration.
Premium Thermostatic Control
The integrated thermostatic valve maintains your selected water temperature with precision, automatically compensating for pressure fluctuations to prevent sudden temperature changes. This advanced safety feature protects against scalding whilst ensuring consistent comfort throughout your shower. The thermostatic technology is particularly important for households with children or elderly users.
Chesterfield Heritage Design
Experience the distinctive character of British design heritage translated into shower controls. The Kite collection draws inspiration from the iconic Chesterfield sofa, incorporating subtle quilted detailing and classic proportions that evoke traditional craftsmanship whilst maintaining contemporary functionality. This unique design language creates a conversation piece that elevates your shower beyond the ordinary.
British Design, Italian Craftsmanship
Designed in Britain and expertly crafted in Italy, the Kite concealed shower represents the perfect marriage of British design sensibility and Italian manufacturing excellence. This collaboration ensures both aesthetic distinction and engineering precision, delivering a shower valve that performs as beautifully as it looks.
Concealed Installation
The concealed design creates a clean, minimalist aesthetic by hiding pipework and valve mechanisms within the wall. Only the elegant control plate remains visible, creating a streamlined appearance that complements contemporary bathroom design. This installation method also simplifies cleaning and maintenance.

Installation Requirements
Suitable for concealed installation within stud walls or behind tiled surfaces. Professional installation essential to ensure correct valve positioning, proper sealing, and access for future maintenance. Ensure adequate wall depth and access to plumbing connections before installation. The valve body must be installed during the first fix stage, with the control plate fitted after tiling.
Understanding Thermostatic Showers
Thermostatic shower valves maintain your selected temperature by automatically mixing hot and cold water, compensating for pressure fluctuations in your plumbing system. This prevents dangerous temperature spikes and ensures consistent comfort. The anti-scald feature is particularly important for family bathrooms, providing peace of mind and enhanced safety.
The Kite Collection
The Kite collection represents Abode's commitment to distinctive design that tells a story. Drawing inspiration from the iconic Chesterfield sofa—a symbol of British craftsmanship and enduring style—each piece in the collection features signature detailing that sets it apart from conventional bathroom brassware. The fusion of British design heritage with Italian manufacturing expertise creates products that are both visually striking and engineered to the highest standards.
Design Philosophy
Kite embodies the principle that bathrooms should feature statement pieces, not just functional fixtures. The collection bridges traditional and contemporary aesthetics, making it equally at home in period properties, modern townhouses, and boutique hospitality settings. The distinctive design creates visual interest whilst maintaining the timeless appeal that ensures longevity beyond passing trends.
Available Finishes
The Kite concealed shower is available in multiple finishes to suit your design scheme. Choose chrome for classic versatility, or explore antique brass for heritage warmth. Each finish is applied to the same high standards, ensuring durability and lasting beauty. Coordinate with matching Kite taps for a cohesive bathroom design.
