Get Set: Understanding Thermostatic Showering

Thermostatic shower mixers provide homeowners with precise temperature control for the full length of a shower, avoiding any sudden changes when other water outlets are in use throughout the home. In order to achieve that level of temperature consistency, the thermostatic valve mixes hot and cold water to reach your ideal, set temperature, and instantly reacts to any sudden changes in the water supply to ensure that balance of hot and cold remains the same. You can even stop your shower mid-way and upon restart, the thermostatic mixer will continue at the chosen temperature. This ability to maintain full control of your ideal temperature makes for the most enjoyable of shower experiences, increased water and energy savings, and safer conditions for those at any age.

Opting for a thermostatic shower in the home ensures a safer shower experience for yourself, as well as for children and elderly users, due to the level of constant temperature control. There is no risk of scalding or surprising cold shocks, instead you can always count on your perfect temperature throughout. 

At GROHE we have a range of thermostatic shower mixers that feature a number of industry-leading technologies, all with safety in mind. GROHE TurboStat® provides immediate reactions to any changes in the incoming water supply and re-adjusts the mix of hot and cold water accordingly, so there’s no risk of your shower water suddenly becoming dangerously hot.
GROHE CoolTouch® ensures the outer surface of the shower thermostat is never too hot to touch. And lastly, select thermostats include a SafeStop® button that can be activated to set a maximum water temperature to avoid scalding water, which is particularly helpful for families with children, senior citizens, or those with limited movement.
