Water mixer with two inlets and shower MONOLITH R0102010206

A pre-rinse shower combines hot and cold water at the tap to deliver a steady, adjustable flow for removing food waste from pots, pans and utensils. The mixer valve inside the unit blends the two supplies, so the operator can set the temperature without scalding or chilling hands. A flexible hose and hand-held spray head direct the water exactly where it is needed, cutting the time spent scraping and soaking.

The operator turns the round handle to open the valve and control the volume of water. Rotating the handle left or right adjusts the mix of hot and cold, giving a comfortable working temperature. The hand-held shower head is held in one hand while the other guides the utensil under the spray, allowing quick, thorough rinsing before the items move to the dishwasher or sink.

The shower is built around a 150 mm wheelbase, meaning the mounting holes are spaced 150 mm apart. This dimension matches standardised plumbing layouts, so the unit can replace an existing tap or be fitted to a new worktop without reconfiguring the supply pipes. An installation tolerance of ±20 mm allows minor adjustments on site, ensuring the shower aligns with the pre-drilled holes in the work surface.

The body is finished in a durable coating, while the round handle and shower head are made of materials chosen for frequent contact with water and cleaning chemicals. The hose remains flexible even when hot water passes through it, preventing kinks that would interrupt the flow.

A single round handle controls both flow rate and temperature. The operator turns it clockwise to reduce the water and anticlockwise to increase it, with the left-to-right rotation adjusting the temperature blend.

The 150 mm wheelbase determines the spacing of the supply pipes behind the worktop. A professional kitchen can install the unit without altering the existing plumbing runs, saving time and cost. The ±20 mm tolerance means the installer can compensate for small misalignments in the worktop or cabinetry, ensuring the shower sits level and secure.

After each shift, the operator wipes the handle and shower head with a damp cloth to remove food residue and grease. The hose is rinsed through to clear any debris that may have entered the spray holes. Periodically, the mixer valve is checked for smooth operation, and the hose is inspected for signs of wear or cracking.
