The ANZZI SH-AZ101BN is a Heavy Rainfall stainless steel shower bar with hand sprayer in brushed nickel, an exposed shower system that combines an overhead rain head, a thermostatic mixer and a five-mode handheld sprayer on one riser. It is a bathroom upgrade that installs to your existing water line.
Rain Head, Hand Sprayer and Thermostatic Mixer
The overhead showerhead adjusts in height and angle, and it releases a gentle Heavy Rainfall cascade. The handheld sprayer has five spray modes, from a vigorous morning spray to a soothing massage, and reaches 59" on its hose to put water exactly where you want it.
A thermostatic cartridge and temperature control handle hold the water at the temperature you set, and a diverter handle switches between the rain head and the hand shower. The system flows at 1.8 GPM, a flow rate that is environmentally friendly and helps lower the water bill.
The bar is precision shaped from 304 stainless steel, Rhino Alloy certified by ANZZI, with solid brass valves. The package includes the shower system, head, sprayer and the mounting and installation hardware.
What the Wall Needs
ANZZI's manual sets out the rough-in. The hot and cold outlets in the wall should sit 5.7" to 6.1" apart on center, hot on the left and cold on the right, at the same height, about 35.5" to 39.4" above the floor. The nipples are wrapped with sealing tape and screwed into the outlets, the supplies are flushed for 30 seconds to 1 minute, and the wall around the nipples is sealed with waterproof sealant. The covers are then leveled so the shanks sit 5.9" apart, and the inlets take 1/2"-14NPT threads.
The wall must be strong enough to carry the shower pipe and reinforced at the mounting points, and the spot for the top mounting piece must be flat and free of protruding grout joints. Water pressure should be between 20 and 125 PSI, and ANZZI highly recommends professional installation.
The mixer, riser, rain head and hand sprayer share the same brushed nickel finish.
ANZZI suggests building a bathroom suite around it, with its shower doors, shower bases, shower seats and towel warmers. The ANZZI SH-AZ101BN stainless steel shower bar in brushed nickel puts a rain head, a five-mode hand sprayer and thermostatic control on one riser.
Features
Heavy Rainfall Overhead Head
The Heavy Rainfall downpour system's overhead showerhead releases a gentle, full rainfall from above the riser.
Five-Mode Hand Sprayer
The handheld offers five spray modes, from vigorous to massage, and reaches 59" on its hose.
Thermostatic Mixer
A thermostatic cartridge mixes the water to the temperature you set, and a separate diverter handle picks the rain head or wand.
Diverter Between Head and Wand
A separate diverter handle switches between the rain head and the hand sprayer, so temperature and outlet are set independently.
1.8 GPM Water Saving Flow
The system flows at 1.8 GPM through the rain head or the hand sprayer.
304 Stainless and Solid Brass
The 304 stainless steel bar is Rhino Alloy certified by ANZZI and fitted with solid brass valves.
Brushed Nickel Finish
The brushed nickel finish is on a Rhino Alloy certified 304 stainless steel shower bar with solid brass valves. ANZZI also makes this model in brushed gold, polished chrome and matte black.

Installation & Care
Installation
Exposed wall mount on two 1/2" outlets spaced 5.7" to 6.1" on center, hot on the left and cold on the right, about 35.5" to 39.4" above the floor and at the same height. Seal and fit the nipples, flush both supplies for 30 seconds to 1 minute, seal the wall around them, then level the covers with shanks 5.9" apart before fitting the faucet, riser and mounting kit. The wall must be strong or reinforced at the mounting points. Water pressure must be 20 to 125 PSI; ANZZI highly recommends professional installation. ANZZI's manual asks you to make sure the supply lines are free of debris before you connect the system.
Care
Wipe the bar, head and handles with regular soap and warm water on a non-abrasive cloth or sponge, then dry. Test any stronger cleaner on an inconspicuous area first, rinse every surface with water straight after and do not let cleaner soak. Keep abrasive pads off the brushed nickel finish.
