Ideal Standard mixers save water and energy

Ideal Standard, plumbing, taps, showers, flow regulator

Ideal Standard’s Concept Blue range of basin mixers is designed to use less water and, as a consequence, reduce the energy needed to heat it. The calculated saving from a basin mixer using IdealBlue technology and a 5 l/min aerated flow regulator is £174 a year, giving a payback of less than nine months.

Concept Blue basin mixers carry the European Water Label, a single label across Europe which clearly shows the volume of water that a tap or shower head will consume per minute if installed correctly and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, and offers an actual performance band per product.

A hot-water limit stop allows users to control temperature and avoid getting burned.
