Our most innovative shower panel yet. The Markwik 21 + Thermostatic SQ is a new design of shower panel that offers a number of key advantages over others currently available. It’s versatile enough to be ideally suited to every type of care home, hospital and clinic pattern installation, including NHS en-suite shower rooms. It offers superior hygiene and performance – its sequential valve’s fully accessible, easy to turn extended single lever, offers on/off and temperature control in one movement, for easy one-handed operation. And it’s easy to install and maintain, helping to keep on-going estate upkeep costs as low as possible.

New levels of long-term hygiene. The shower panel outer casing is made from antimicrobial premium grade solid PVC. It features stain, heat, fire, chemical and critically, microbe resistant properties. The case material itself incorporates silver ion additive technology - a safe, long-lasting and proven treatment that inhibits the growth of bacteria and mould, and is hostile to viruses. The casing is fully flush to ceiling so hiding unsightly pipework and preventing dust from entering the internal workings. Its seamless joints and smooth edges ensure easy cleaning. Plus, its white finish contrasts with other colours, a must for the visually impaired, providing a high Light Reflective Valve (LRV) of 92. for easy servicing to TMV3/D08 requirements, a unique built-in panel offers access to filters, regulators, check valves and isolation valves. Easy installation and maintenance. The unit is completely pre-plumbed with 15mm copper pipes and a built-in sequential thermostatic shower valve, so it can simply be mounted to the wall and connected using push-fit connectors. These pipes extend all the way to the top of the panel for the top inlet connection favoured by most hospitals. Space inside the panel also allows for lagging, should it be needed, and as the unit comes complete and ready to mount, there’s no need for Integrated Panelling System considerations. In line with best practice, the pipework includes a hot recirculating loop to improve hygiene; compared with a loop contained within the ceiling, this greatly reduces the amount of feasible dead water in the system and cuts down installation time even further. If a cold recirculating loop is needed, there’s space within the panel for the additional pipework. And

Recommended shower kits and compatible products. The Markwik 21 + Thermostatic SQ is supplied without shower kits, hoses, rails and handsets to allow you to choose the most suitable options for your installation. We do however recommend compatible shower kits and fittings from the Armitage Shanks range, as detailed here. All fittings and accessories should be mounted adjacent to the panel rather than onto the casing itself.

Complying with CAT 5 requirements

Markwik 21 + shower panels can easily comply with all relevant regulations for healthcare environments, including Category 5 requirements. The diagrams below show a CAT 5 installation for both 1500mm and 1700mm depth panels.
