All elements of the bathroom, including the WC frame, bidet frames, and wall-mounted faucets for bathtubs and sinks, which can be placed under the plaster, are commonly referred to as wall-mounted systems. This practical solution allows for hiding all unsightly connections that are necessary for the proper functioning of the bathtub, shower, or sink. Wall-mounted tub systems have many advantages - primarily allowing for the concealment of visually unappealing elements such as elbows, pipes, or connectors.
Shower set - following the trends
In bathroom arrangements, the most classic solutions are faucets and showerheads, where chrome plays the main role. It is not surprising - they have been used for years and are a proven solution that fits well with other elements in a similar style. However, recently, there has been a growing popularity of components that are characterized by deep colors and a matte finish, especially those in unconventional black color schemes. Black provides elegance and tidiness. Moreover, it fits perfectly with unconventional finishing solutions, such as bathroom wall elements styled as wood.
Wall-mounted fixtures can be very varied. Currently, there are many significantly different solutions available on the market from which we can choose. Some of them will be hidden deeply under the plaster, invisible to the eyes. In such cases, aesthetics do not matter as much as functionality and ease of installation. For those elements that will not be hidden under the plaster - minimalist solutions, that is rectangular shapes or those fitting into a square plan, currently dominate. It is these that make the greatest impression. When deciding to purchase them, it is worth primarily considering the consistency of aesthetics of all elements in the bathroom. Even in the case of modern unconventional bathrooms, harmony and consistency are paramount.
Thermostatic faucet - is it worth it?
Wall-mounted tub systems with built-in thermostats are designed for the most demanding customers. Above all, they provide great user comfort and safety. Using a thermostatic faucet is intuitive and involves simple adjustment using a knob. Furthermore, the wall-mounted system with a thermostat has a built-in safety feature that prevents scalding. This is yet another consideration for safety. Usually, to set the water temperature above 38 degrees, which may no longer be comfortable for the body, but may still be necessary in certain situations - simply press the lock. Only after pressing it will it be possible to turn the knob further.
Wall-mounted systems with thermostat - comfort and aesthetics in one!
The wall-mounted system with a thermostat and lock is extremely useful in situations when children and elderly individuals will be using the bathroom. Interestingly, there are models on the market that can remember the previous or favorite temperature, saving a lot of time and problems when establishing a comfortable temperature. Wall-mounted shower installations with thermostats prevent water flow from exceeding the temperature set on the knob. This solution can protect the skin from burns.
However, the greatest advantage of wall-mounted shower faucets with a thermostat is comfort. Furthermore, it also offers an excellent economic balance. Temperature regulation effectively reduces water consumption, which in turn translates into a reduction in water bills by up to 40%. The absence of the need to test specific temperatures on your own body will benefit not only health and skin but also the wallet. Wall-mounted systems with thermostats are also resistant to pressure fluctuations, which helps avoid many undesirable situations during a shower or bath.
Faucets with or without a thermostat?
Ready-made wall-mounted shower sets without a thermostat are a more economical solution, at least initially, designed for budget-conscious customers. Customers who prioritize visual appeal and aesthetics and appearance tend to choose faucets without thermostats, placing comfort and practicality in second place.
It is no secret that whether someone decides on a thermostat or an option without one primarily depends on their budget. Sometimes, under certain conditions, customers consciously make this decision when the bathroom will be used by an elderly person who may struggle with what appears to be simple thermostat operation. Sometimes, it can be hard for some individuals to change old habits and they stick to choosing standard faucets for their bathroom during the interior arrangement.
However, it is worth being convinced of such equipment as thermostatic faucets, as they clearly increase the comfort of using the bathroom: from the bathtub, shower, etc. When renovating or refreshing a bathroom, it is worth deciding on wall-mounted solutions, which we as a producer caring for the comfort of our customers often advocate in our original blog posts.
