Blutide Neo Mixers
Neo runs across the bathroom and the kitchen from a short list of fittings. In each finish it lists a standard short basin mixer, a high basin mixer, a wall mounted basin mixer with spout, a concealed diverter mixer, a concealed shower mixer, a round freestanding bath mixer with hand shower, and two kitchen taps: a single hole sink mixer and a sink mixer with pullout. It is a short range that still reaches every tap position in an ordinary bathroom.
The five Neo finishes
Brushed stainless steel, gunmetal, black, brushed brass and chrome. Every title names its finish, so fix the finish first and choose the fitting second. Not every fitting is listed in every finish, so if one piece has to match the others exactly, check that it appears in your colour before the rest of the room follows it.
Neo is the range where brushed brass is named as such, so Neo pieces are part of what you see on Brushed Brass. The other two finish pages, Black and Gunmetal, gather those colours across the whole Blutide catalogue, which is where to look when a Neo mixer has to sit near a shower head from another range.
The concealed fittings
Three Neo items are concealed: the wall mounted basin mixer with spout, the diverter mixer and the shower mixer. Neo lists these without the words trim kit that the sibling ranges use, so read the product page to see whether the in-wall body is included or has to be ordered from plumbing and wastes. Settle that before walls are chased, because the body fixes the handle and spout heights for good.
How Neo compares
Against Satin, Silk and Lace, Neo differs in two visible ways: its kitchen tap is listed as a pullout rather than a spray, and its wall basin fitting is a mixer with a spout. By type, see Blutide basin mixers, shower mixers, kitchen mixers and freestanding bath mixers, or the full Blutide catalogue.
Frequently Asked Questions
What finishes does the Blutide Neo range come in?
Neo is listed in brushed stainless steel, gunmetal, black, brushed brass and chrome. The finish is written into every product title, so you can read it straight off the collection page. Coverage is close but not identical across the five, so if a particular fitting has to match the rest of the room, confirm that it is listed in the finish you want before ordering the others.
Where do I find Neo in brushed brass?
Every brushed brass Neo item sits on this page, and it also appears on the Blutide Brushed Brass finish page, which pulls brushed brass together from across the catalogue. That second page is the useful one if you are matching a Neo mixer to an accessory or a fitting from a different range, since it shows everything the catalogue carries in that colour in one place.
How is Neo different from the Satin, Silk and Lace ranges?
The fittings cover the same positions, but two are described differently. Neo lists a sink mixer with a pullout where the other three list a spray sink mixer, and Neo lists a wall mounted basin mixer with spout where the others list a basin and bath trim kit. Neo also names its warm finish brushed brass rather than brass. Past that, the difference is the shape of the bodies and handles.
Does the Neo range include a kitchen tap?
Yes. Two kitchen options are listed in each finish: a single hole sink mixer and a sink mixer with a pullout head. That is worth knowing if you are trying to carry one look from the bathroom through to the kitchen, because it means the kitchen tap can come from the same range rather than being matched by eye across two families.
What do I need for a Neo concealed shower mixer?
You need the mixer itself, an in-wall body if the listing does not already include one, and whatever outlet you are running: a shower arm and head, or a hand shower on a rail. Check the product page for what is in the box, and confirm the pairing with your plumber before the wall is chased, because the body position fixes the handle height.
