Go thermostatic, it wont need pressure balancing (and if you feed it
with cold mains as you should it is more or less balanced anyway). Mixer
manufacturers make (astounding) claims for the pressure ratios their
gadgets can handle.

Avoid concealed unless you have access to the wall from the other side.
More than once I've seen a slight installation fault on concealed cause
disporportionate damage.
If you do go concealed make absolutely sure it's done right and water
proof.



I was thinking more of a decent thermostatic originally, so that's what
I'll go with. Thanks.

I don't have any choice in whether it's concealed or not, SWMBO has
spoken :-)
It will be accessible afterwards though, I'm thinking of a removeable
panel or somesuch.
