Shower sets

Besco shower sets – complete comfort in the shower

Choosing a ready-made shower set guarantees that all fittings are perfectly matched in terms of both technical specifications and style. Instead of putting together a tap, shower rail and shower head yourself, you get a cohesive system designed for maximum ergonomics. Besco sets combine modern aesthetics with advanced engineering, allowing you to quickly transform your shower cubicle into a luxurious space for relaxation and rejuvenation.

Types of shower sets – find the right solution for you

Depending on the stage of your renovation and your visual preferences, you can choose one of two main installation systems:

• Surface-mounted sets (shower columns):
  • Worth choosing if: You want to avoid chiselling into walls or are replacing an old tap. All components are mounted on the surface of the tiles, which makes access and installation easier.
  • Features: Usually consist of a mixer tap, an integrated shower rail with a rain shower head, and a hand shower.
• Concealed sets:
  • Worth choosing if: You dream of a minimalist interior. The entire installation is concealed within the wall, with only the decorative rosette, lever, rain shower head and hand shower visible on the outside.
  • Features: They save space in the shower cubicle and are extremely easy to keep clean thanks to the reduced number of protruding elements.

Innovations for durability and comfort

Besco shower sets are not just about looks, but above all about technologies that raise the standard of your daily shower:

• Brass construction: The mixer bodies, made from high-quality brass, are resistant to corrosion and sudden changes in water temperature.
• Anti-Calc system: Overhead showers and hand showers are fitted with flexible silicone nozzles. The Anti-Calc system prevents limescale build-up, which stops the holes from becoming blocked.
• Ceramic cartridges: These ensure smooth flow control and precise water temperature adjustment, eliminating the risk of leaks.
• Thermostatic Mixers: Selected sets feature a thermostat that maintains a constant, preset temperature, preventing unexpected changes and protecting against scalding; this is particularly recommended in homes with children or elderly people.

Aesthetics without compromise – a wealth of finishes

Our shower sets are available in the full Besco colour range, allowing you to perfectly match the fittings to the shower enclosure profile or the colour of the tiles:

• Modern black and Gun Metal: Ideal for loft-style and industrial bathrooms, where raw, elegant details are key.
• Luxurious shades of gold: Brushed, light and classic gold blend perfectly with the texture of marble or concrete, lending the interior a touch of glamour.
• Timeless Chrome: A classic high-gloss finish that suits any interior and is extremely resistant to daily wear and tear.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How does a standard set differ from a set with a thermostatic mixer?

The standard set features a classic mixing head, where you adjust the hot and cold water ratios yourself. The set with a thermostatic mixer automatically maintains the selected water temperature, regardless of pressure fluctuations in the system. This is a safer, more economical and significantly more convenient solution, particularly for quick showers.

How does the Anti-Calc system work in Besco rain showers?

The Anti-Calc system relies on the use of soft silicone protrusions at the water outlet. In traditional rain showers, limescale builds up inside metal or plastic holes, which is difficult to remove. In Besco sets, the nozzles prevent limescale build-up, ensuring unobstructed flow and an even spray for years to come.

Can a concealed set be installed in any shower enclosure?

Installing a concealed set requires sufficient depth in the wall (usually around 7–10 cm), so the decision to choose one should be made before the tiles are laid. If your wall allows for the creation of recesses for the concealed module, this solution can be used in any shower enclosure, regardless of its size.
