This is the \u003cstrong\u003efreestanding bath shower mixer\u003c\/strong\u003e — a floor-mounted tap on a tall column, designed for a freestanding bath that sits away from the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThis needs planning before the floor goes down\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the important part. A freestanding tap is \u003cstrong\u003eplumbed up through the floor\u003c\/strong\u003e, which means the pipework has to be run and the position fixed \u003cem\u003ebefore\u003c\/em\u003e you tile or board. Getting it wrong is not a matter of moving the tap a few inches later — it means lifting the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasure carefully from the bath, and remember the tap needs enough clearance to swing the spout over the rim without fouling it. If the bath hasn't been chosen yet, choose it first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a substantial piece of metalwork — \u003cstrong\u003e3.68kg\u003c\/strong\u003e and 296mm across the base — so the floor fixing needs to be solid. Read the data sheet before committing to a position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tall floor-standing column with a swan neck spout, dual lever handles and a shower handset on a hose sitting in a holder alongside. The diverter switches between filling the bath and the handset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBefore you order\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe waste is sold separately\u003c\/strong\u003e, and you'll want a matching matt black one. Freestanding baths usually need a specific waste and often a floor-routed trap, so factor that in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUses \u003cstrong\u003e3\/4\" BSP connections\u003c\/strong\u003e.
