Mira 415 will balance the flow of hot/ cold and will cope the mains

As menitioned before in a previous thread, the 415 is pressure balanced
shower and not thermostatic. Hence it will work best with the type of
combi that modulates the flow rate of the hot water to keep a constant
temperature at the tap. If your combi it the type that will let you
demand any flow you like (but at the expense of the water getting
progressively cooler as the flow rate increases) then it might not be as
good.

Not sure if they still have any, but about a month ago Makro were
selling a bristan thermostatic mixer for about 50+VAT. Should be OK with
mains pressure and probably as cheap as a bog standard non thermostatic
mixer.
