Showering is one of the easiest ways to ingest water droplets containing legionella, making washrooms the most important part of the house when it comes to protecting against the bacteria. Due to this, a good, hygienic showerhead is essential for every household and accommodation type.

Our pick of the bunch is the brand-new Rada SF1-60 Shower Head. It’s ideal for easy-to-use, top-of-the-line protection, and features removable coloured indicator rings, a spray plate, & nozzle mat, giving you easy access during your cleaning routines and providing a quick and simple method to see when the showerhead was last sterilised.

It has a flow regulator option, allowing you to cap the flow rate to 6 litres per minute to save electricity, water, and money.

The Rada Shower Head is particularly great for education accommodation providers looking for an easy way to keep their students safe whilst keeping both water bills and environmental impact as low as possible.

Not only will it save you money, it’s also WRAS-approved, guaranteeing you the peace of mind that you’re using the best product around.

Along with showering, using taps to wash your hands and brush your teeth is an easy way to consume water particles containing legionella, so ensuring your taps are safe and simple to clean is crucial for keeping everyone safe.

This Basin Mixer by Armitage Shanks is designed with the most recent hygiene innovations in mind, featuring an anti-legionella surface, an easy-to-service design, and self-regulating hot water to ensure safety when in use.

It removes the need for premixed water, as the dual-pipe system can be attached to a hot water tank and cold water tank separately. This helps save water as it only releases what is needed when turned on.

It’s suitable for use in commercial sites as well as domestic bathrooms, and is DDA compliant, meaning it’s highly suitable for use in bathrooms designed for disabled people.
