Traditional Basin
I was recently asked this question by a customer and it made me sit up and think for a little while. I’d used both terms when describing a piece of glass that is used instead of a shower curtain to prevent water splashing around the whole bathroom. I decided I’d check it out for myself.
As it turns out, a Bath Screen is always a glass screen that is installed over a bath. A Shower Screen is a bit of a confusing term, as it can be used to refer to that same piece of glass above a bath, but it can also be used to describe any piece of glass used on its own to prevent shower splashes. For example, if you were to install a Wet Room, you might just want a single panel of glass somewhere near your shower head, just to help contain some of the water.
A Shower Screen is simply a piece of glass used to contain spray and splash, whereas a Bath Screen is a specific type of Shower Screen. Pretty much like all postboxes are red, but not all red things are postboxes, if you get what I mean?

If you’ve been looking through brochures and have settled on the Reina Valeo as your designer radiator of choice, you will be a bit disappointed to learn that it has now been discontinued. Whilst there are plenty of other beautiful Reina radiators available in the collection, there doesn’t seem to be anything quite like the Valeo with its mirror styling.

What do you think?
There are a number of questions a shopper may have before deciding on a heated towel rail for their bathroom or kitchen. If this is your first time fitting a heated towel rail – especially if you are replacing a standard central heating radiator in a bathroom, then you will need to consult with an expert to make sure that you are getting one that will fit your needs.
At TradePlumbing, we realised that our advice was possibly out of date, so we have re-written the advice for our customers. It’s been written by one the guys who deals with towel rail enquiries every day, so he’s probably the person best-placed to answer the questions.
Think we’ve got it bad in the UK with all this rain and hail we’ve been getting? Think again! Today in the Moscow News, it was announced that the district heating supply will be switched off as the average daily temperature during the day and during the night has been above 8 degrees Celcius for five days in a row.
District heating is considered an efficient way of managing heat use in built-up areas, but it does come with its down sides – when the heat is too great – customers tend to just open their windows meaning lots of heat just escapes into the atmosphere.
Would you like to be part of a district heating system, or do you prefer to have control of your own central heating?
We’ve been wanting to connect with our customers in whatever way they might want us to. So we’ve been working on improving our blog, improving our Facebook page and giving some real value with our tweets. We’ve been pinning away on Pinterest and now we’ve just taken our first steps on Tumblr. TradePlumbing on Tumblr is set to be another place where you can find out about new products we’re launching onto our website. For our first post, we thought we’d show the groan-worthiness of the sense of humour that flies around the office.

Hi there
Yes, the Towerchron QE2 is a functional replacement for the Towerchron 2000. It is a different shape and will not fit on the Towerchron 2000 backplate, so you will need to use the new backplate.
The QE2 programmer will replace any Towerchron 2000 and work in a similar manner and is suitable for the same compatible boilers.
