Chrome is the most versatile finish in any bathroom. Its bright, reflective surface suits everything from classic and traditional schemes to sleek modern spaces, and it coordinates effortlessly with white sanitaryware and virtually any tile. A safe, enduring choice that never dates.
This exposed fitting connects to 1/2" hot and cold supplies on standard 150mm pipe centres, making it a straightforward replacement for most existing bar valves. We recommend a qualified plumber to commission the thermostatic cartridge for safe operation.
