I am looking for a decent, keenly priced thermostatic mixer shower and am trying to scope out some of the better ones via the internet before I visit a bathroom showroom/plumber's merchants on the weekend. My plumber said I should look for ones with brass internal fittings (valves, etc) rather than plastic ones as the latter will degrade quicker - but which showers have these.
I have looked at the Miras (Excel, Gem 88) which go from =A3250-300 but there is also the Triton Tyne (=A3150, PlumbWorld PWTT0010) and the Triton Altaire (=A363.99, Screwfix - 47639) but which of these if any have brass internals?
The list of showers was compiled mainly on basis of looks and because they require a minmum head of only 1m. Our existing thermostatic mixer shower is a Mira 722 and although the flow rate is not great it is acceptable.
Can anyone assist in eliminating the good from bad?
Thanks
