Two heads are better than one

This week we’re taking a look at the best showers that feature two heads instead of the standard one. There are lot of benefits to be gained by this idea, and it will also give you a few different options that will make everyday living easier and more enjoyable. Most of our showers that feature two heads usually have a main shower head, this typically would be rain-effect to provide you with a luxurious shower option. The additional head is usually mounted on a small wall arm or bracket and is called a handset, this small shower head can be used for a quick refreshing shower, for washing hair or it could be used to rinse the shower out after use thanks to its flexible hose, it’s also ideal for small children as the main shower head can be a bit too powerful for them. Whatever your plans for two shower heads are, you’ll find this design a welcomed addition to your bathroom that will give you better control over how you want to bathe. Let’s take a look at some of the best models available to ensure you enjoy a 5 star showering experience every day.

To benefit from a double head shower you’ll need to choose between three different shower styles.

Shower Panels
Shower panels are unique in that they are one complete unit, our customers love this look because it’s sleek and luxurious. Shower panels are slightly different as they usually feature a main shower head, shower handset and also have massaging body jets for the ultimate showering experience, all in the comfort of your own home.

Our Earth Thermostatic Shower Panel is finished in stainless steel and features a rain effect shower head, pencil handset and 2 powerful body jets. Three push buttons allow you to choose the desired function quickly and efficiently.

Rigid Riser Showers
Rigid riser showers are unique as they typically feature two shower heads and have a valve at the bottom which allows you to control water flow, temperature and which head the water runs from. They are different because the design usually keeps the pipes exposed which creates a modern, industrial look that looks great in any modern or traditional bathroom. The main shower head usually creates a rain effect feel and the smaller handset can be used to wash hair, rinse the shower or bath after use and is perfect to create a gentle shower for small children.

Our Kappa Thermostatic Rigid Riser Shower System is one of our most popular showers. This shower is excellent value for money and provides you with a stylish solution that features two independent shower heads that are perfectly suited to any busy family environment.

Mixer Showers  
Mixer showers come in hundreds of different variations, but it’s unique to find this style with two shower heads. For a mixer shower to have an additional head the shower needs to feature a triple valve. This special valve allows you to control water temperature, water flow and each head independently to help you create the shower of your dreams, in the comfort of your own home.
