You have the wrong number of water taps...

Sorry don't understand????? we have a hot and cold water tap over here and the shower etc has yet to be fitted. In brazil where I go to see my family they only do have one tap and that is the cold one. For hot water they have an electric heat unit on the top of the tap.

Maybe my English is playing me tricks...
I meant two in - one out water tap.
You have two outputs...
I meant something like this:

Alex,

What you are showing in your pictures are known as "mixer taps" in the UK which are OK in the situations you show but can be very dangerous when fitted to a wash hand basin or a sink.

My daughter was badly scalded at a friends house when she put her hand under a mixer tap to rinse them just after a previous user had run the tap on full hot setting.
Mixer taps always have so residual heat in them and this is what caused the scald when first switched on.

Have to say this was some time ago and the designs may have changed but according to information from a friend who is still designing hot water systems, unless the client insists he always specifies separate hot and cold taps. especially in schools and nursery's.

My wife and I stayed during our move to the new house in a place that had taps on the side of the bath. If you want to add a little more hot water and turn those on the wrong way not only do you scald yourself but right in the tender part of the bodyl around ones middle.

No way would I ever have bath taps from the side of the bath as they are too dangerous Ex 2010 Freelander2 GS-e Diesel manual Silver owner

That mixer tap in first picture is temperature compensated and automatically regulate the cold/warm water mix.
It also includes a safety lock in order to not accidentally tune it too hot.

very posh, not seen one like that over here. Then again not being a tap detective I would not be looking for one Ex 2010 Freelander2 GS-e Diesel manual Silver owner

Standard Travelodge tap, except with theirs naff all water comes out, more of a dribble than a shower.

side taps here, lovely jubbly pour some more hot in for an extended soak, old small bore pipes though so the taps flow at the aforementioned travel lodge rate At work

They're here, cheap at twice the price.work best with a combi boiler with about 2bar +pressure https://www.tapsandshowers-direct.co.uk/he..._wcB[/url] my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

we can't have a combi boiler, well that is not exactly true but it means completely re plumbing the whole house with surface pipework. The reason is we have small bore pipe and the pressure from a combi boiler could blow a pipe joint behind a wall. so we opted just to have a new boiler condenser type. The old existing boiler was the house original around 35 years old when the house was built in 1986.
So we have had a few alterations done to the central heating as in heated towel rails and removed/changed/upgraded some of the radiators.

Now link that posh tap to a freelander radiator and you can have a hot shower on the move Ex 2010 Freelander2 GS-e Diesel manual Silver owner
