Description
Create a coordinated, uncluttered bathing space with the Tavistock Quantum SQT1618 in Matt Black. This system combines a concealed shower valve, bath overflow filler and bath-mounted handset: fill the bath through its overflow fitting, then select the handset for flexible rinsing. The valve body sits behind the wall, leaving the visible controls and bath fittings to complete your contemporary bathroom.
Temporary overstock offer: the reduced price applies to our overstock allocation. This product is not discontinued; we will continue selling it at a higher price once that allocation has sold.

Installation Considerations
Plan the concealed valve position, wall depth, pipework and servicing access before finishing the wall. Your installer should check that the bath's overflow opening and deck or surround can accommodate the fittings, with adequate access underneath. The technical sheet recommends 1.0 bar operating pressure, 15mm pipework and 1/2-inch valve connections. The stated laboratory flow figures should not be treated as guaranteed installed performance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this system consist of?
It combines a concealed shower valve with a bath overflow filler and a bath-mounted handset. It is not an overhead shower package.
How does the overflow filler work?
Water enters the bath through the overflow filler fitting instead of a separate spout over the rim. Your installer must check compatibility with the bath and its overflow opening.
Can I use the filler and handset together?
No. The technical sheet confirms that both outlets cannot run at the same time.
What pressure and pipework are required?
The technical sheet recommends 1.0 bar operating pressure and 15mm pipework. The valve uses 1/2-inch connections. Ask your installer to confirm suitable pressure and flow for your installation.
Does the valve have isolation points?
Yes. The technical sheet confirms that isolation points are included.
Will it fit a freestanding bath?
Only where the bath or surrounding installation can accommodate the overflow filler, bath-mounted handset and associated connections. Do not assume universal compatibility; have your installer check before ordering.
Is this being discontinued?
No. This is a temporary overstock offer. Once the reduced-price allocation sells, we will continue to sell this model at a higher price.
