Right Temperature: Thermostats vs. Mixers
When comparing thermostats and mixer taps, thermostats have the advantage of being
able to set the temperature exactly where you want it and at the right temperature almost
instantly. Another huge advantage is that thermostats provide a constant temperature,
regardless of water pressure fluctuations or changes in the water temperature in the pipes,
which can happen, for example, when someone else in the house turns on a faucet or
flushes the toilet.
Using a thermostat reliably protects you from sudden temperature fluctuations while
showering.
HeatLock: For more safety in the bathroom
To prevent potential scalding, Duravit faucets and shower systems with a thermostat
have a temperature limit at 38° C. Perfect for younger users of the bathroom.
MinusFlow: Water Savings
In shower systems with MinusFlow, the flow rate is limited to a maximum of 9 l/min.
This reduces water consumption by up to 40% for hand showers and up to 60% for
overhead showers.
