Bristan H0920 FRENZY Thermostatic Shower Mixer Bar with Cool Touch Technology for Anti Scald, Contemporary Shower Tap System, Fast Fit Connections, Chrome - FZ SHXVOCTFF C

Perfect. Easy to fit. 10 minute job.

Great product and really helped with the low pressure! We now have a shower that works much better.

I’m fitting this was very straightforward it was basically a like for like replacement. This was an updated version of the one I fitted 12 years ago when I revamped our bathroom. I hope this one lasts just as long!!

I bought this as a replacement for an older Bristan valve. Fitting was very easy. It would have been easier if I'd read the instructions and noticed the two new washers in the pack. Once I'd removed the unit and fitted the washers there was no leak at all. The valve works well but I've had to get used to the controls being reversed to my previous unit. Once it's set the temperature is great for time of the whole shower. I live alone so there's no need to adjust that again. I've had to adjust it to just over the safety stop for my level of comfort. Others might be more comfortable with a lower level. One thing that I've had to get used to is the cool touch feature of the valve. For those who keep the shower on all the time during the shower it won't be a problem. I, however, turn the shower off to lather my torso after washing my hair and face. When I turn it on again, I have to be aware that the first water out of the shower head is a little colder than I would like, so I jump out of the way!

Very pleased with my purchase of this Bristan Cool Touch Bar Mixer Valve purchased end Nov 2019. It arrived neatly packed and comes complete with a fixing kit which you need to buy separately with some other valves. It was relatively easy to install although I reckon you need to be very precise setting the 150mm pitch between hot and cold inlet pipes. I've now had this installed and running for a couple of weeks and it performs very well indeed. The factory setting for temperature was spot on and I didn't need to adjust but there is instructions included should you need to do so. The cool touch function is excellent and the bar valve remains cold at all times. The adjustment knobs at either end do get a little stiff when water gets hot but they are still relatively easy to turn because of a raised key stub on each adjustment knob. So overall I am happy to recommend this product.

Works very well.

The listing for this is a bit deceptive as the photos show two different products, so we didn't actually get the one we were expecting. We couldn't be bothered to return it though so installed it anyway as the old one we were replacing had a major leak. It was extremely quick and easy to install, even for complete novices like us. It works perfectly so far, hopefully it will last a while.

I have to say Bristan make brilliant shower and bath related products and this bar mixer is no exception. Don't but cheap bar mixtures from random brands as they can go faulty pretty easily. My last Bristan bar mixture which was an older Bristan Frenzy model and lasted me about 5 years the only reason I replaced it was due to the temperature control and on/off control on both sides becoming a little tight to rotate. I know if I applied a little grease grease it would have solved the issue as over time they tighten up due to water falling and getting inside the rotating controllers on the side. Even on then the older Bristan model never leaked and the water temperature was perfect. The new Bristan model I can see they have improved the controls on both side ls they are smooth to rotate. When I say you can rotate them with 2 fingers even if you have soup on water on your fingers. And the speed of water coming out is allot stronger then the older model even though the older model water flow was fine this is even better. Highly recommend this product.
