Hello, I wonder if you can help??

My electric shower has just packed up so, instead of replacing it I've bought a concealed thermostatic valve that I'm going to mount UN-CONCEALED, for the time being. The bathroom is due for a major overhaul cos it looks like something that Stig of the dump would be proud of!!!! So, this is as good a reason as any to now do the overhaul. However, it won't happen for the month or so, so I'm just going to pipe it all "on" the wall instead of "in" the wall for now.
The shower has arrived and I'm doing it tomorrow but, having had a look at the valve, the hot and cold inlets are 22mm. I assumed they would be 15mm and have bought 15mm pipe!!!! Why is this???
All the hot and cold pipes in the house are 15mm??
So, the question is :- Do I have to use a reducer at the point that I take the feed from and feed the valve with 22mm or do I use it at the valve and feed it with 15mm??
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks o_O

Why is this even a THING?!!!:ROFLMAO:

You should be able to get a 22-15 reducer which will just screw straight into shower ( push fit ideal solution.)
Ideally question should go in the plumbing forum .
