The Sonoma Forge WaterBridge 950 (WB-SHW-950) is an exposed thermostatic outdoor shower system that pairs an 8-inch rain head with a handshower. The word to notice in its name is thermostatic: this is the WaterBridge configuration for buyers who want temperature control to be a designed-in feature of the shower, holding a steady, comfortable mix while you shower outdoors, where supply conditions can shift as other fixtures in the house open and close during a long morning by the pool. For households sharing one outdoor shower across generations, that steadiness is the difference between a fixture everyone enjoys using and one people quietly learn to work around.
The 950 is handcrafted in the USA from solid brass and copper, with the exposed pipework that defines the WaterBridge collection — an artisan-industrial profile that suits patios, pool decks, garden retreats, and spa-style outdoor enclosures. It is offered in five finishes: Oil Rubbed Bronze, Matte Black, Rustic Copper, Rustic Nickel, and Satin Nickel. The rustic, living finishes develop a natural patina over time, so the system ages with its setting rather than against it. Its wider proportions give the two outlets room to breathe, and the handshower adds the flexibility an overhead head alone cannot — rinsing children, washing down feet before coming inside, or cleaning the enclosure itself.
