Shower installation for filtered water

摘要

A shower installation providing filtered water includes a faucet (1), a filter device (2), and a diverter valve (3). The output of the faucet is connected to the input of the filter device, and the output of the filter device is in turn connected to the input of the diverter valve. One of the outputs of the diverter valve is connected to a shower handle through a water hose whereas the other output of the diverter valve is connected to a fixed overhead shower head through another water hose. In operation, hot water and cold water are mixed in the faucet and is supplied to a shower handle and to the shower head whereby in both cases water is filtered by the filter device. Thus, one filter device can be used for both the shower handle and the shower head.
