The Mixermate to Mattsson Thermostatic Shower Mixers are ideal for people who are sensitive to fluctuations in water temperature and/or are at risk of burns due to tampering with the taps. The temperature selector handle will not go over 38°C unless you manually override the safety lock and the maximum temperature it will go to is 50°C. If required the temperature safety lock can be set higher than 38°C by a licenced Plumber (for example 40°C).
During a shower the Mixermate to Mattsson Thermostatic Shower Mixer automatically adjusts the water pressure and temperature to stay within ±2°C of what has been selected. If the water supply is interrupted, the mixer will automatically shutdown to avoid scalding. These valves are installed in bathroom modifications recommended by Occupational Therapists, Architects and the like in the care industry. They are of the highest quality made in Sweden.
The Mixermate to Mattsson Thermostatic Shower is installed without removing tiles or altering the plumbing — it simply replaces the existing shower taps. The old taps can be put back at any time (ideal for rented properties). We also supply "In-Wall" thermostatic mixers for new full bathroom modifications.
The Mattsson Thermostatic Shower is suitable for mains pressure water systems or pump systems over 100 KPA only. Sorry, no gravity fed systems.
The hot water supply to the shower has to be at least 50°C for the thermostat in the Mattsson Thermostatic Shower to work correctly.
If a Tempering or Thermostatic Mixing Valve is fitted and set below 50°C then you can: (1) Run a separate line to the shower directly from the hot water unit, or (2) Seek approval to set the Tempering or Thermostatic Mixing Valve to 50°C.
The valve has to be checked annually by taking flow and temperature readings. The thermostatic element should be replaced every 5 years to maintain safe operation.
A Child with Cerebral Palsy in Melbourne was very sensitive to fluctuations in temperature during showering — it caused the Child major distress. The home Nurse also found it difficult to set a comfortable water temperature. An Occupational Therapist recommended a Thermostatic Shower be installed. We were engaged to install the new Thermostatic Shower Mixer and the outcome has been a great success. Now the home Nurse simply sets the thermostat at 38°C and turns the shower on — the thermostat automatically self-adjusts, providing a constant temperature and a pleasant showering experience.
If you've been struggling with old, stiff or hard-to-reach taps in your shower, bath or kitchen, Mixermate offers a simple and cost-effective solution. Our single lever mixer tap system can be fitted directly over your existing taps without any tiling work or major plumbing changes.
When it comes to water safety for children and vulnerable individuals, a thermostatic shower mixer can make all the difference. The Mattsson Thermostatic Shower Mixer automatically regulates water temperature to within ±2°C of your set point — and will shut off automatically if the cold water supply is interrupted, preventing scalding.
Replacing old shower taps doesn't have to mean smashing tiles or calling in a full bathroom renovation crew. The Mixermate system mounts neatly on the wall with a cover plate available in white, ivory, chrome or stainless steel. Installation typically takes around one hour.
