KLUDI PUSH: Operation of shower and bathtub at the push of a
button
Kludi Push is a sophisticated user interface for shower and bathtub: Ergonomic
push buttons start and stop the flow of water at the push of a button, and the
temperature can be pre-set on the thermostat handle. This is true ease of use for all
ages and for any living situation, as the handling is so simple and intuitive that the
mixer can be operated without even looking.
There are many situations and circumstances in which it would be helpful if, when
showering or bathing, the flow of water could be started and stopped by pressing a button.
For example, if your face and eyes are full of foam, when small children want to shower
alone, when people feel less confident about operating because of their age or disability,
or simply if a bit more comfort in the bathroom is desired.
For these cases, Kludi, the fittings specialist from Menden, now offers the ideal solution:
Using Kludi Push, the overhead or hand shower, side jets or bath taps can be switched on
or off at the simple push of a button. The mechanical push buttons work in principle like a
ballpoint pen; they are slightly raised and gently and audibly snap when operated, but do
not retract. This means that they can be operated safely and quickly even without looking.
The customer can decide during installation how the buttons are allocated. An intuitive
allocation is also offered, such as above for the shower head and below for the hand
shower or body jets. Appropriate symbols on the buttons show the respective function. Up
to two outlets can be connected to Kludi Push, which can be switched on and used either
separately or together.
Convenient features and quality design
When the user wants instant, pleasantly warm water, the water temperature is preselected on the narrow, cylindrical thermostat handle of Kludi Push. For additional
protection from scalding, there is a hot water lock at 38°C. The lock button is ergonomically
designed as a rocker switch that can be operated with one hand if higher temperatures are

required. Easy operation of all functions is a priority to guarantee a relaxing shower
experience.
The high-quality design of Kludi Push demonstrates that this is a reliable, mechanical
product that does not use electricity. Two design options are offered: the elegant rosettes
and buttons are either round or rectangular in a soft-edge design and finished in chrome,
as is the thermostat handle. A small but significant detail: the thermostat handle has a nonrising stem, which means that during operation it does not rotate any further from the wall
– this shows tangible quality that enhances the calibre of this easy-to-clean solution.
Simple and flexible installation
Kludi Push is an attractive solution not only in new buildings: as the practical operating
concept builds upon Flexx.Boxx, the tried-and-tested concealed installation kit by Kludi, it
can also be easily retrofitted wherever the Flexx.Boxx is already installed. The mixer tap
with a function unit made of high quality cast brass demonstrates high-quality German
workmanship and impresses in terms of its durability and excellent value.
Clever accessories: Eco-hoses
A well-matched partner for Kludi Push is the new eco-hose by Kludi. The smooth and shiny
silver-coloured hose is available in lengths of 125 and 160 cm and has a unique feature:
with its eco-function, the amount of water supplying the hand shower can be progressively
controlled between two and 20 litres. This allows all users to adjust the strength of the
water jet to meet their individual preferences. The double turning resistance and easy
cleaning of the tube is particularly user-friendly.
