Abstract
A sanitary fitting such as a wall-mounted installation for a shower area, has a common housing and a rosette or cover plate. The housing and rosette associate control and flow components, including a shower discharge element at the rosette. The shower discharge element, for example, is constructed as a lateral shower that delivers water through the rosette. The fitting has operating or control elements, and in addition to the shower discharge element at the rosette, leads to another discharge outside the housing and outside the rosette, i.e., apart from the fitting.
