A refreshing and drenching shower is just the thing to get you feeling wide awake and ready to go! A rainfall shower head provides that direct, vertical flow of water – like standing in the rain. They are also sometimes called waterfall shower heads. Here’s our rundown on the options available from our ranges.
1 – A Traditional Shower Set
If you’re thinking of going for a traditional look in the bathroom, our Lismore Essential Round Shower set is a good choice. It has a fixed riser rail leading up to the drenching rainfall shower head, along with a hand held shower head which can also be used as a full-body shower if you don’t want the overhead sensation. A best-of-both worlds combination which is suited to all family members. The Lismore collection has a polished chrome finish, thermostatic technology for a constant temperature, and anti-scald technology which stops the flow if the cold supply is interrupted.
2 – A Minimalist Matt Black Ceiling Mounted Head
For a very minimalist look, a ceiling-mounted rainfall shower head is just the job. These designs may need a little more forethought regarding installation, especially if the previous shower head was wall mounted, but we think you’ll agree that it’s worth it! This is it teamed with a separate wall-mounted hand-held shower and valve. Our Matt Black Round Ceiling mounted shower heads come in two diameters, 300mm and 400mm, and are installed using the matching round shower arm that is fixed to the ceiling. Shown here with our Helsinki 1400mm Hinged Shower Door.
3 – A Square Chrome Wall Mounted Shower Head
For a nicely spacious and streamlined shower enclosure, choose a wall-mounted shower head and simple valve-set – there’s no need to add anything else! This is the Galway Premium Chrome Square Thermostatic Head, which is wall-mounted and has a 200mmx200mm head. The valve is a simple affair, with two square controls for flow and temperature. All thermostatically controlled, of course, and the Galway collection also has the option of Hand Shower and Slider Shower choices. Shown here with our London Pivot Shower Door.
4 – Our Waterfall Shower Head
Our Galway Waterfall shower head is set directly against the shower wall, so it doesn’t have the extended arm or ceiling fixing of our other rainfall shower heads – but it still provides the same amazing shower experience! It’s a neat and compact design that will make a shower room look exceptionally stylish. The Galway collection includes several other square head designs, including arm and ceiling models, so there’s plenty of options to suit all settings and layouts. Shown here with a separate hand-shower and thermostatic valve with three control dials.
5 – A Traditional Over-Bath Rainfall
Whilst a ‘rainfall’ shower may be a contemporary idea, it’s not necessary to have a super-modern bathroom to enjoy the concept. Our Shannon thermostatic shower set, when installed in a traditional setting, looks perfectly at home whilst providing the desired rainfall drench. Shown here with our Abingdon Dove Grey Shower Bath that comes with the all-important easy-to-clean Shower Screen with rail. Finishing touches include Tile Mountain Metro White Wall Tiles.
6 – Stylish Square Matt Black
One of the joys of a monochrome colour bathroom scheme is that it’s so easy to achieve! Matt Black bathroom finishes are absolutely and totally on-trend, and naturally, our range includes a wide choice. The largest square black rainfall head we offer is a huge 400mmx400mm, Which has a wafer-thin profile, making it look very streamlined. Also available in a beautiful chrome finish, and in smaller sizes (200mm and 300mm) if required. Don’t forget, our experts are on hand via our Contact Us Page if you need any help with fine-tuning the different components of your order.
7 – Contemporary Over Bath Rainfall
We love this stylish bathroom which has so many advantages… it has a beautifully spacious bath that’s perfect for a long and relaxing soak, as well as a roomy shower space with an efficient, drenching overhead rainfall shower. The bath is our L-Shaped 1700mm Shower Bath with Matt Black Easy Clean Screen; this is the right handed version. Definitely a good choice for anyone who wants a space-saving bath and shower solution. The shower is our Galway Square Matt Black Thermostatic set, which has a wall-mounted bath filler and hand shower.
8 – Stunning Square Chrome Waterfall Head
We love the pairing of our Oslo Premium Easy Clean Sliding Shower Enclosure 1200mm with the dramatic Galway Premium Chrome Square 300mm Thermostatic shower head. The valve is sleek, shiny and simple with two control dials (temperature and flow). Of course, it’s essential that the shower enclosure and shower fittings look harmonious and elegant, and we think that this choice is the perfect combination. The Galway shower head has silicone nozzles for easy cleaning to maintain the ultimate shower experience.
