GROHE ESSENCE AT A GLANCE

ESSENCE - WASHBASIN FITTINGS

The Essence deck-mounted taps for washbasin are available in four sizes: S (174 mm), M (193 mm), L (244 mm) and XL (364 mm). They all adopt the same design except for the tap in size S which is more compact and has the lever on top. In the other sizes, the body of the fitting merges directly into the spout. This is slightly bent into a U-shape, the handle is on the side and points upwards. 

Two-hole taps for wall mounting in all colours are also part of the Essence series. As a true eye-catcher in the bathroom, these come with a slightly downward-curved spout and handle in the form of a cylinder with a narrow rod on an extra rosette.

An even more special fitting is the 3-holes washbasin taps for installation on the edge of the washbasin. The handles point to the left and right and form a harmonious symmetry. The spout swings down slightly in a U-shape. A selectable spout height of 193 mm or 244 mm provides the necessary flexibility to fit your washbasin.

Electronic fittings (Essence E) are also available for the washbasin in the free-standing and wall-mounted versions. These are available with or without a mixer and also with a drain fitting. It can be operated via mains connection (230 V) or battery connection (6 V). The battery charge level is displayed in several stages. A safety shut-off after 60 seconds is factory-set, a temperature limit can be set. Further settings can be made via the remote control: automatic rinsing one day or three days after last use and a continuous run mode for thermal disinfection of 3.5 or 11 minutes. The infrared tap is offered in chrome finish.

ESSENCE BIDETS TAPS

The bidet fitting (147mm) is available in all colours and look similar to the size S basin tap. It features a straight, forward-facing spout and a ball-joint jet former. 

ESSENCE SHOWER Fittings

The highlight of the series is certainly the free-standing shower fitting. This is usually only known for bathtubs. With its 220 to 229 centimetres and a head shower with a diameter of 31 cm, it will skillfully place itself in the centre of your bathroom. The shower arm can be swivelled horizontally through 360° and the head shower can be adjusted by 15° to allow maximum freedom of movement under the shower. The free-standing shower also includes a rod hand shower and a 1759 mm long shower hose.

Otherwise, single lever shower taps are also available for surface and concealed installation. Both take up the organically rounded shapes typical of the series.

GROHE ESSENCE BATHTUB TAPS 

Essence offers floor-standing bath taps in all colours. There is also a choice of single-lever bath fittings for surface and concealed installation with diverter, allowing you to switch between the bath inlet and the hand shower. The hand shower can also be bought separately. Other more exclusive bath fittings are the 3- and 4-hole bath taps as seen directly above.
