Sonique 3 Exposed Shower Valve and Kit – Chrome Finish

Product contents include the mixer shower valve, chrome elbows, shower head, riser rail and hose.

We are pleased to offer the updated Sonique 3 Exposed Shower Valve and Kit in Chrome from Bristan, a market leader in the industry. This is the improved version of the popular Sonique shower, offering updated visual brand markings for clearer operation while maintaining the same high levels of quality and performance.

One of the key advantages of the Sonique 3 is its suitability as a replacement shower. The adjustable elbow inlets allow installation on existing pipework centres between 110mm and 155mm, meaning in most cases there is no need for retiling. This makes it ideal for refurbishments, upgrades and like-for-like replacements.

The riser rail also features adjustable fixing brackets, which can often be aligned with existing drill holes, helping to make installation quicker and cleaner.


Safety, Control and Performance

The Sonique 3 uses a thermostatic cartridge with a preset temperature safety stop, helping to provide safe and stable showering for all the family. The thermostatic system maintains a consistent temperature even if water pressure changes elsewhere in the home.

This shower is suitable for all UK plumbing systems and performs from 0.2 bar up to 5.0 bar, making it ideal for low pressure systems as well as high pressure installations.

The cartridges are accessible from the front, making servicing and maintenance straightforward.


Handset, Finish and Build Quality

The supplied rub-clean handset allows limescale and debris to be easily wiped away using a finger or cloth, helping to keep the shower performing at its best with minimal effort.

The chrome finish is hard-wearing and scratch-resistant and has been salt spray tested for long-term durability, ensuring it maintains its appearance even in daily use.

The valve body is manufactured from brass for strength and long service life.
