Plumbing advice needed please

Options
hi, i wonder if there is any plumbers out there who can offer me some advice on concealed thermastatic shower valves.
i want to get a concealed thermastatic shower with fixed head, but also need the shower valve to turn on a bath spout to fill my bath rather then having bath taps, so if i turn the shower knob say to the left then i get a shower, if i turn the oppisite way it then fills my bath via the concealed bath spout, hope that makes sense to a plumber, and if so will this one do the job?

    Hi Lady, Sorry It has taken a while to reply but just seen your question. You can plump your shower in the way that you want, but ( and there is a but) it will be expensive. You need a shower valve, shower head, diverter, and spout for the bath. Bear in mind that you will need high pressure for this to work. Usually about 3bar pressure. so if you don't have that a powerful pump will be needed. See what I mean about it being expensive. I and putting in a link for you to look at and if it is the sort of thing you want. There are a few companies that do this not just this one. Usually it is the continental (german etc) that make these.
