shower mixer
A shower is a place in which a person bathes under a spray of typically warm or hot water. Indoors, there is a drain in the floor. Most showers have temperature, spray pressure and adjustable showerhead nozzle. The simplest showers have a swivelling nozzle aiming down on the user, while more complex showers have a showerhead connected to a hose that has a mounting bracket. This allows the showerer to hold the showerhead by hand to spray the water at different parts of their body. A shower can be installed in a small shower stall or bathtub with a plastic shower curtain or door. Showering is common in Western culture due to the efficiency of using it compared with a bathtub. Its use in hygiene is, therefore, common practice.

Shower mixer valve advice please.
I need to replace an old Sirrus 1850 shower mixer valve with a more uptodate mixer bar. Problem is that the hot feed is on the right and the mixer bars I've seen ask for the hot feed to be on the left. Is there a workaround for this? Thanks in advance for any replies.- russtobin
