@[email protected] @BrianEnigma Make sure you’ve turned the main water feed on under the kitchen sink, and that the gas supply for the water heater has been lit with the one match that is kept in the garden shed….

@BrianEnigma I remembered that one day in a luxury hotel in Hamburg. The shower had no visible water outlets. But a lot of high pressure valves in the ceiling. Covering the whole space. And a lever in the wall. As in every shower the first second came out cold.

@BrianEnigma Does a booming voice tell you, “BE NOT AFRAID” when you step in? Seriously, it looks like a Biblically accurate shower fixture.

@BrianEnigma guessing: top handle for rain-maker overhead shower flow. Bottom handle for flexible shower head flow. Middle capstan for temperature. Top handle is missing its outer, just the spindle left?

@BrianEnigma The right combination triggers a fresh cup of espresso
