Good evening
I have removed a worn-out Aqualisa Aquastream from my downstairs shower. The pipes are rear-entry 65mm between centres into a chased-out wall. The pump was unnecessary (and not used) given the drop from my hot and cold tanks (and was too noisy anyway).
Of course modern thermostatic mixers are around 130mm pitch.
Can anyone recommend a neat way to adapt the pipework to accommodate a modern-day. unpowered, mixer without having to delve behind the tiles please? I.e. I am content with some tidy, exposed pipework (chrome?) which probably means a side-entry mixer.
Grateful for your thoughts.
