RE: [OT] Aqualis quartz digital shower



The quartz have no flow control, just on and off. Never seen it as a
problem but then I have a policy of not letting small children into my
house :-).
Don't know about the Axis but the website is pretty comprehensive.

I thought the Quartz was the one with the single round control? The Axis is
the one with the vertical column with a number of buttons.

I was not aware that there is no flow control. Trying to think whether
there
is any disadvantage in this ... for having a shower or filling up the bath.

Does the Axis have any flow control? Sounds a bit strange really, what
happens if I have a small child and they don't want the water so powerful?

Though I won't have 3.5bar.

The Grohe units all need min 3 bar.

They look good and I like the idea of having a remote switch but having no
flow control is a real turn off.
