Default Recommendation for a thermostatic shower?

I will be installing a new shower shortly and was wondering if any of
you had particular recommendations? Any pros and cons to look out for?

The water system provides hot and cold water at mains pressure
(modulating combi). Static water pressure is OK ( 3bar), flow rate up
to about 15l/min is available from the hot supply - although I would
like to use less than that so as to have something left for the rest of
the house.


I would go for a good quality thermostatic valve like a Mira, Grohe or
Aqualisa.

This will take out any temperature variations with different flows
around the house due to taps being turned on.

You can easily control flow by virtue of using a smaller diameter hose
or even restrictors if need be.
