shower attachment
The shower-curtain effect in physics describes the phenomenon of a shower curtain being blown inward when a shower is running. The problem of identifying the cause of this effect has been featured in Scientific American magazine, with several theories given to explain the phenomenon but no definite conclusion.
The shower-curtain effect may also be used to describe the observation how nearby phase front distortions of an optical wave are more severe than remote distortions of the same amplitude.
I'm looking for deck-mounted taps for a low-to-medium head. Access once installed will be near impossible so the taps ned to be reliable. Recommendaitons and "avoid at all cost" advice appreciated.

The plastic temperature control knob on my Grohe Avensys Classic shower has broken. It's a small piece of chrome-effect plastic this size of a tuppence.
The full assembly, including the replacement part is around £115. This is rather annoying as I only need the smallest part of the assembly...

Hi I am reusing an old cast iron bath but when measuring the distance bettween center of tap holes the results came out 7.5 inch (190mm). I notice all the mixers with attachments are usually 180mm so will I just have to settle on single taps or can I buy 190mm mixers?
Can I fit a standard bath mixer tap with shower attachment to my system. I have mains pressure cold supply but the hot is low pressure from a hot water cylinder. Any advice would be greatfully recieved. Thanks

Hi Folks,
I'm fitting a bathroom in a few weeks and need to source some taps for the customer. I'm after a set of Bath deck mixer taps with an integrated shower attachment and matching basin taps - does anyone have any recomendations? I've got around £150 to spend on the taps.
Cheers,
Pete.

Hi All,
