Frequently Asked Questions
What is an exposed wall-type bath mixer, and where is it used?
An exposed wall-type bath mixer is a bath filler or bath-shower combination whose body and handles sit on the face of the wall rather than recessed behind it, with the cartridges accessible from the front. The hot and cold supply lines come through the wall on a standard 150mm centre-to-centre spacing and connect to the mixer with visible elbows or shrouds. This style suits retrofits where you cannot easily access concealed plumbing, and any installation where serviceability matters more than the cleanest visual line.
Will these mixers work on standard South African water pressure?
Yes. The exposed wall-type mixers in this collection are rated for the 1 to 5 bar pressure band that covers most South African domestic supply, whether you are running direct municipal pressure or a pressurised geyser system. Models with a hand shower, including the Mixed Tide and Amber ranges, are calibrated to deliver a consistent spray within that band. The 9 litre per minute flow restriction on some models meets the SANS 1500 efficiency guidance. For gravity-fed roof-tank supply below 1 bar, mention this when ordering so we can confirm performance.
What is the standard plumbing rough-in for these mixers?
Exposed wall-type bath mixers run to a 150mm centre-to-centre inlet spacing as the South African default, which matches the rough-in your plumber will set into the wall during first-fix. The supply connections are 15mm threaded, and any handheld shower hose ties into the dedicated outlet on the mixer body. The bath waste is a separate 40mm plumbed line that sits below the bath itself. Confirm the rough-in spacing before tile installation, since correcting a misaligned wall offset after tiling is difficult and visible.
How do I care for the finish on a wall-type mixer?
Wipe the mixer dry with a soft microfibre after the bath has been used, particularly in en-suites where humidity stays high. Clean with warm soapy water when needed and avoid bleach, abrasive scouring pads, cream cleaners with grit, and acidic limescale removers, which can dull chrome, scratch brushed stainless, and strip matte PVD finishes. The Moon stainless steel mixer in this range tolerates hard water particularly well. A 50/50 white vinegar and water mix applied for two minutes then rinsed lifts mineral deposits without damaging plated finishes.
What warranty applies, and where can I see these in person?
The bath mixers in this collection carry manufacturer warranty support against material and mechanical defects in normal residential use, administered locally through the South African distributors. Cartridge replacement is covered for the published warranty term, and Bella Bathrooms & Tiles retains your records so any claim is handled on your behalf. Visit our Kramerville showroom to operate the cartridges and judge spout reach on working displays, with a personalised consultation if you would like options pre-pulled.
