Hi
I'm about to replace a bath-tap-mixer style shower with a cubicle and proper thermostatic mixer. It will be fed via combi boiler and rising main, and currently this provides adequate pressure (nothing spectacular).
My question is this: is it worth buying a thermostatic mixer valve with a higher pressure rating (as claimed by B&Q!), in order to ensure no loss of pressure? The difference in prices between the lower and higher rated models is remarkable, but I'm very happy to pay for something that will ensure no drop in pressure compared to the existing bath-tap mixer!
Grateful for any advice and or related tips.
Thanks in advance
Ian
