A floor standing bath mixer rises from the floor beside a freestanding bath — the plumbing runs under the slab or floor, so the bath can sit anywhere in the room rather than against a wall. At QA Bathroom Warehouse we stock floor standing bath mixers from Meir, Nero, Phoenix and Fienza, most with an integrated hand shower, in matte black, chrome, brushed nickel, brushed gold and gunmetal.

Planning the Floor Rough-In

Floor standing mixers are a build-stage decision — the water feeds come up through the floor, so position the mixer with the bath before the slab is poured or the floor sheeted. Set it on the bath’s open side with enough clearance to stand and operate the lever comfortably, and keep the spout reaching over the bath rim. On upper floors, confirm joist positions with your plumber before locking in the location.

Choosing Style and Finish

Most floor standing mixers include a hand shower on the column — handy for rinsing the bath and washing kids or pets. Round profiles suit soft, organic freestanding baths while squared columns pair with angular designs. Match the finish to your basin mixer and accessories: brushed gold against a white bath makes the mixer the room’s feature piece, while matte black anchors a monochrome scheme. If the bath sits against a wall instead, a wall mounted bath mixer is the cleaner option. Compare both in our Malaga showroom.
