Jaquar Concealed Body for Single Lever Diverter

Jaquar Concealed Body for Single Lever Diverter is the in-wall valve mechanism that forms the functional core of a concealed single lever shower diverter system. Available in two variants ? Normal Flow (ALD-CHR-065M, 29.72 LPM @ 3 bar) and High Flow (ALD-CHR-079N, 48.94 LPM @ 3 bar) ? the concealed body is installed inside the wall cavity during rough plumbing stage, before tiling and wall finishing, and is subsequently fitted with a separately purchased exposed parts kit that forms the visible trim on the finished wall. The kit includes the concealed body, button assembly for diverter control, and cartridge sleeve ? but not the exposed parts kit, which is selected independently to match the bathroom’s design series.
The concealed body uses a precision ceramic cartridge ? 40mm for the Normal Flow variant and 47mm for the High Flow ? providing smooth, reliable temperature and flow control with long-term leak resistance. Ceramic cartridges significantly outlast rubber washer valves and maintain consistent operation across thousands of cycles without degradation. The Normal Flow variant suits standard residential single-head shower installations and apartments; the High Flow variant is designed for luxury multi-head shower systems, spa showers, and hotel bathrooms where higher volume throughput is required. Both variants are compatible with the full range of Jaquar single lever diverter exposed parts kits, giving complete design flexibility in finish and aesthetic series selection.

Key Features

Two Flow Variants ? Normal & High Flow: Choose 29.72 LPM for standard residential showers or 48.94 LPM for luxury multi-head systems ? flow rate matched to the complexity and volume demand of the shower installation.

Precision Ceramic Cartridge: 40mm (Normal) and 47mm (High Flow) ceramic disc cartridges provide smooth, precise flow and temperature control with long service life and minimal maintenance compared to rubber washer alternatives.

Clean Concealed In-Wall Installation: The entire valve mechanism is hidden behind the wall surface ? only the exposed parts kit is visible on the finished wall, creating a minimal, uncluttered bathroom aesthetic.

Button Assembly Included: Integrated diverter button mechanism for switching water flow between shower outlets is included in the kit ? provides precise, tactile diverter control.

Universal Exposed Parts Compatibility: Works with all Jaquar single lever diverter exposed parts kits ? allows the bathroom design series (Florentine, Continental, Allied, etc.) to be selected independently of the concealed body.

Installation Guidelines

Step-by-Step Installation

Plan the wall cavity position during rough plumbing stage ? determine the correct height and alignment for the concealed body before any wall construction begins.
Mount the concealed body securely within the wall cavity, connecting hot and cold supply lines with appropriate sealing at all joints.
Pressure test the system to 8 bar to verify leak-free operation at all connections before closing the wall.
Install the ceramic cartridge with correct orientation and sealing within the cartridge sleeve.
Set up the button assembly for diverter control and test switching operation between outlets.
Complete wall construction (tiling, plastering) around the concealed body, ensuring the front access point remains unobstructed for future maintenance and exposed parts installation.
After wall finishing is complete, fit the chosen Jaquar exposed parts kit over the concealed body for the final visible trim installation.
