Anyone any opinions on the "best" manufacturer/type of these?, my preliminary research is tending towards an Aqualisa Quartz or A N other Aqualisa

ahh, similar to TRVs, I`m told the TRVs using wax aint so good either.

apparently the wax has a tendency to fail and with most of them I don't think you can just replace whatever holds the wax

Hansgrohe here in both showers and only issue has been removing a wire mesh inline filter after 6 years.

Thanks for the replies guys, still tending towards the Aqualisa, 5 year warranty appeals.

The best one I've used is an Aqualisa. Would buy again.

Just bought a Mira Pace EV that came with a 5 year warranty. Seems very good so far. Solid construction, constant temperature, etc.
