Drawing inspiration from the age-old principle of healing through light, the Chromatherapy system bathes you both in a full spectrum of colour at the touch of a button.

You can choose to experience the full colour spectrum through gradual, relaxing transitions or select a favourite colour or hue to match your personality or mindset.

The water is controlled using a wall mounted ‘no touch’ control pad and is activated by moving your hand in front of it to change from bath filler to shower, or to increase or decrease the temperature of the water.

It is even possible to have the Thermofill set at your favourite temperature and to fill up to the depth you require before it switches itself off. The Thermofill is supplied with either a traditional or contemporary pull-up hand shower which again is thermostatically controlled.
