Kludi Basic 350020538

The best combination of price, quality and durability

Thermostatic shower tap Kludi Basic 350020538 of the popular German brand is a model with the best combination of European workmanship, reasonable price and durability. The 270mm model has a rounded design with no corners and swivel handles with a longitudinal ridge for easy rotation. The device is mounted on the wall to the pipe inlets of hot and cold water, the distance between the axes of which should be 150 mm. Including decorative cylindrical caps that hide the eccentric connectors with a mesh filter, the mixer will protrude from the wall by 105 mm after installation. The shower outlet is maximally shifted to the left, and is located near the handle of the shut-off valve, equipped with a backflow protection valve. All tap outlets have G 1/2 inch connection threads.

Option of antibacterial treatment of internal channels

The device is made of high quality brass alloy with a polished chrome finish. The thermostatic cartridge allows you to set the temperature of the mixed water up to 70 °C, and the installed water temperature limiter, fixing a maximum of 38 °C, makes it possible to avoid burns. The naturally arising question, why then the option of heating water to 70 °C (with the limiter removed) finds a simple explanation: this temperature is necessary to destroy bacteria in the internal channels of the device. For antibacterial treatment, similar to the anti-legionella function in boilers, it is enough to turn on the water at the maximum temperature for 3 minutes. And the implementation of the function will be possible with the temperature limiter removed. The water flow rate at the minimum allowable water supply pressure of 1 bar is 13 L/min, and at a nominal pressure of 3 bar — 25 L/min.
