Shower taps

What is a kielle shower mixer tap and why does it matter?

A shower mixer tap is the heart of every shower area. Its main task is to mix hot and cold water to the desired temperature and regulate the water flow intensity. A high-quality shower mixer tap ensures that water adjustment is quick, precise and without unpleasant temperature fluctuations. A correctly chosen shower mixer tap can also save a significant amount of water and energy needed for heating it, without sacrificing the comfort of a powerful water stream.

How to choose the right shower mixer tap?

When choosing a new mixer tap for a shower box or shower enclosure, consider several basic parameters:

• Installation location and method: Are you replacing an old tap on existing connections, or are you planning a complete renovation with hidden pipes?
• Type of control and safety: Do you prefer quick water flow adjustment with a lever, or do you want a thermostatic mixer that maintains a constant temperature and protects your family from scalding?
• Number of outlets: Will the tap supply only one hand shower, or are you planning a combination with a large overhead shower?
• Matching the interior: Choose a colour finish and design series so that the shower mixer tap perfectly matches the accessories and other mixer taps in your bathroom.

Types of kielle shower mixer taps

• Classic shower mixer taps – operate by mixing water using a lever or handles. They are a proven, affordable and reliable solution that is easy to operate and maintain.
• Thermostatic shower mixer taps – offer maximum comfort and safety. Water flows immediately at the desired temperature, which you set in advance. The thermostat automatically compensates for pressure fluctuations in the pipes, preventing unexpected cold or hot water changes. They also include a safety stop (usually at 38 °C), which prevents accidental turning to hot water and is especially appreciated in households with children or seniors.

Installation methods of shower mixer taps

• Wall-mounted shower mixer taps – installed directly on the wall onto prepared water outlets with a 150 mm spacing. This is the fastest and simplest solution when replacing an old tap without any construction work affecting the tiles.
• Concealed shower mixer taps – the entire technical body of the tap is hidden behind the wall covering. Only an elegant cover plate with a control lever or buttons remains visible. This solution saves valuable space in the shower enclosure, creates a clean appearance and significantly simplifies maintenance.

Control options of kielle shower mixer taps

• Single-lever shower mixer taps – the most common option. Water intensity and temperature can be adjusted easily and precisely with one hand.
• Two-handle shower mixer taps – use separate controls for hot and cold water. They are particularly suitable for traditional or retro-style bathrooms.
• Push-button shower mixer taps – modern and convenient control where individual shower streams or outlets are switched on and off with a simple press of a button.

Equipment: with or without a shower?

• Shower mixer taps without shower – include only the tap body. They are ideal if you already have a quality shower rail with a hand shower at home or want to assemble the accessories according to your own preferences.
• Shower mixer taps with shower (sets) – complete and convenient packages that include, besides the tap, a shower hose, hand shower and holder or shower rail. You get everything you need in one matching design without purchasing additional parts.

Practical technologies for greater comfort and savings

kielle products use smart technical solutions that increase comfort and make bathroom care easier:

• EcoSpare – a water-saving function with an integrated flow limiter (e.g. 6 l/min and 9 l/min), significantly reducing water consumption without compromising shower comfort.
• EasyClick – a system for convenient switching between spray types on the shower head with a simple button press.
• AntiTwist – protection against shower hose twisting, hidden inside the cone, preventing the hose from tangling and being damaged.
• TouchClean, AutoClean and Click&Clean – various technologies for quick and easy limescale removal from shower nozzles (by wiping with a finger, pressing a button or automatically extending cleaning pins when the water is turned off).
• High-quality ceramic cartridge – ensures smooth and effortless lever movement and prevents unpleasant dripping.

Colour options and matching with your interior

Choose a finish that best fits the style of your bathroom:

• Chrome – a timeless classic with a glossy finish. It suits any interior, brightens the space and is easy to combine with other accessories.
• Matt black – a distinctive element for modern, industrial or loft-style bathrooms. It creates a beautiful contrast with light tiles or wooden details.
• Gold – an elegant and luxurious finish for Art Deco, Glamour or Vintage-style bathrooms. It creates a warm and sophisticated atmosphere.
• Gun Metal / Gun Grey – dark brushed metal with a modern character. It is extremely practical to maintain because dried water drops are not immediately visible and it perfectly complements minimalist and urban bathrooms.
