Understanding Concealed Shower Sets

A concealed shower is the perfect choice for those who value both style and practicality in their bathroom design. Unlike traditional exposed showers, a concealed set is designed with all the pipework and working parts neatly tucked behind the wall. What you see is a sleek, streamlined control plate and beautifully finished shower components that bring a clean, modern look to your space.

These showers were created with the aim of offering a more refined and clutter-free alternative to standard shower systems. As bathroom design evolved, there was a growing demand for fittings that not only performed well but also contributed to a more minimalist and polished aesthetic. The concealed shower mixer was developed to meet this need — combining technical innovation with elegant design.

This clever setup doesn’t just enhance the appearance of your bathroom — it also makes cleaning easier and helps maximise space, making it ideal for both compact en-suites and larger, contemporary bathrooms. Most concealed thermostatic shower includes a thermostatic valve for safe, precise temperature control, along with a fixed overhead shower and a handheld attachment for added flexibility.

Imagine stepping into a shower where only a chic control panel, a sleek rainfall head above, and a discreet handheld spray are visible. There are no exposed pipes or bulky fixtures — just a smooth, modern finish that blends effortlessly with your tiles and décor. The result is a calming, spa-like experience, every time you step under the water.

Elegant, efficient, and thoughtfully designed, it transforms everyday routines into something truly enjoyable.

What’s Included in a Concealed Shower Set

Concealed Thermostatic Shower Valve
This is the central element of the shower system, fitted discreetly within the wall. The valve controls both water flow and temperature, allowing for precise adjustments and a consistent showering experience. The thermostatic feature is particularly useful in family homes, as it protects against sudden changes in temperature — ensuring comfort and safety at all times. By placing this valve out of sight, the bathroom maintains a minimalist appearance without sacrificing functionality.

Control Plate or Handles
Mounted on the outside wall, the control plate or handles are the only visible part of the valve. These are designed to be sleek and unobtrusive, offering an intuitive way to control temperature and switch between shower outlets. Their elegant appearance contributes to the overall clean look of a concealed system, while also making the shower easy to operate for users of all ages. In traditional sets, the handles may feature classic crosshead or lever designs with refined detailing, adding a touch of timeless charm while maintaining the same ease of use and functionality.

Overhead Shower Head
Usually fixed to the wall or ceiling, the concealed shower head is designed to deliver a luxurious rainfall effect. It provides a soothing, full-body soak that enhances relaxation. The fixed position and wide spray coverage make it ideal for daily use, and since the pipework is hidden, the overall design remains streamlined and modern. Traditional overhead shower heads often feature rounded shapes and more decorative detailing, offering a timeless aesthetic that complements classic bathroom interiors.

Shower Arm
The shower arm is the component that connects the overhead shower head to the wall or ceiling. It supports the shower head securely while helping to position it at the ideal height and angle. Available in a variety of lengths and styles, the shower arm plays a key role in ensuring both comfort and aesthetics. Like other external parts, it is designed to be sleek and minimal, blending seamlessly with the rest of the shower setup.

Handheld Shower Head
Attached via a flexible hose, the handheld shower offers versatility and convenience. It’s particularly useful for rinsing hair, cleaning the shower area, or helping children and elderly users bath more comfortably. Many sets include a wall-mounted bracket or a slide rail, allowing the handset to be adjusted to the perfect height. Traditional handsets often feature a more rounded shape and classic detailing, including the popular telephone-style design, which adds a vintage touch to the bathroom while maintaining excellent usability and comfort.

Wall Outlet or Shower Hose Connector
This component connects the handheld shower hose to the water supply. Typically low-profile and discreet, the wall outlet — also commonly referred to as a shower holder — keeps the hose neatly in place when not in use. It supports the system’s clean design while remaining highly functional.

Diverter (in Multi-Outlet Systems)
Included in dual or triple outlet setups, the diverter allows the user to switch the flow of water between the overhead and handheld shower heads. Sometimes built into the valve or included as a separate control, the diverter offers flexibility without adding visual clutter to the wall. It enables users to enjoy different showering options depending on their needs — whether a full drench from above or a more focused rinse from the handset.

These components were thoughtfully designed to work together, providing a shower that looks seamless while delivering top-level performance. A concealed shower system is not only a design-forward choice — it’s also highly practical, space-saving, and easy to clean, making it ideal for modern homes of all styles and sizes.
