Our shower taps (hot and cold) created our mixer for our shower. However, over time they became difficult to turn on and off. That's them in the picture to the left.
In deciding what to replace with, I decided on a lever mixer, but wasn't sure about that because of the limited space, and felt it was going to impinge upon my washing machine. Conventional household mixers, I thought were just a bit to big. Then I came across these tiny mixers in my chandler store in NZ. Instantly, I knew they would do the job.
To the right, here's what that lever mixer looked like fitted.
And to the left, the tiny mixer. So much easier to turn on and off and get the temperature right for our shower. I don't know where else you could get these; try your local chandler or plumber supplies.
It's great that you can do all this work yourself . . . imagine what it would cost to hire it done, wow! Great job.
