Drawing a bath is one of the reasons I'm a shower person. To be honest, the sound of the water gushing into the tub is something I've always found rather grating. This base-inlet filler would change that. In an action that's more like a spring than a waterfall, water streams into the bottom of the tub from a ring of outlets around the drain at a rate of 30 liters per minute. As you might expect, it's much quieter than a conventional, spout-style tub filler; at 9 decibels compared to 21 decibels, my issue with noise may have been silenced. bette.de
