🚿 The Best Bathtub and Shower Faucets for Every Need

Bathtub and shower faucets: complete sets, thermostatic models, with easy switching between faucet and hand shower.

The bathroom faucet is one of the things you use every day, and choosing the right one depends on whether you have a bathtub or shower, the style of your space, and how consistent you want the temperature to be. We’ve gathered options for every need, from complete sets for a quick upgrade to thermostatic faucets.

To replace the bath mixer, shower handset and hose together

When replacing your bath mixer, a complete set saves you the trouble of finding a matching shower handset and hose.

The Bormann Elite BTW3010 is a mixer bath mixer, wall-mounted, supplied as a complete set. Buyers note how easy it is to switch from the tap to the shower handset, and that the handset included in the set is simple to use.

For a shower, even in a small space

A shower mixer tap takes up less wall space.

The Bormann BTW3020 is a mixer tap for a shower, wall-mounted. Buyers say the package includes a hose, hand shower and seals, and that they also use it in outdoor showers.

To prevent sudden temperature changes when another tap is turned on

When someone turns on another tap in the house, a standard mixer can cause the shower water to suddenly become hotter or colder. A thermostatic mixer keeps the temperature more consistent.

The Grohe Grohtherm 800 is a thermostatic wall-mounted mixer for a bathtub. For a shower enclosure, the Grohe Grohtherm 800 is also available as a shower version.

Review we picked out:

“Simply wonderful! We’ve forgotten about sudden cold and scalding shocks caused by abrupt temperature changes when someone turns on another tap in the house (the pressure drops a little, but the temperature remains relatively stable).”

A review that stood out:

“Very beautiful and practical. Great water pressure and super easy to use. Cleans with just one simple cloth as soon as you finish showering.”

For easily switching from the spout to the shower

In the bathtub, you often switch the water flow from the spout to the shower, and a diverter that sticks or switches back on its own quickly becomes annoying.

The Ideal Standard Alpha BC489AA is a mixer bath tap for wall mounting. Buyers write that you switch between the spout and shower using a small lever beneath the handle, and that the tap has no sharp corners.

A review we found helpful:

“Switching the water flow from the shower head to the tub spout is effortless, thanks to the small lever beneath the large handle, which turns left and right to adjust the hot and cold water.”

For a bathroom with a classic, retro style

In a bathroom with classic tiles or a clawfoot bathtub, a modern faucet stands out. A retro faucet blends in with the rest of the style.

The Viospiral Brava 26-7401 is a retro wall-mounted bathtub faucet, supplied as a complete set. It is also available in brass.

To match black bathroom fixtures

If your bathroom has a black basin, black accessories, or a black shower enclosure frame, a black tap keeps the look consistent.

The OEM P94-2 is a wall-mounted mixer bathtub tap in black.

The P94-2 faucet is wall-mounted above the bathtub. Water flows either through the spout to fill the bathtub or through the shower. For optimal use, it should ideally be installed 90 cm above the bathtub and positioned away from any window.

It is a mixer faucet, meaning it has a single mixing mechanism that lets you easily achieve the desired water temperature, making it simple and practical to use.

  • Ideal for residential and commercial use, including hotels.
  • Mechanism with ceramic discs.

Before buying, check the distance between the wall pipes and whether you need a bathtub or shower mixer tap.
