I've only seen this once, but when I was one one of my trips to Ireland, I stayed at some accomodation above a pub in a small town. I noticed the shower had some sort of electric box in it, with some knobs, which I easily found out control the shower stream and temperature. This was in leiu of what we're used to in the states, which would be a typical shower knob(s). I only saw this device once on my trip, and was curious as to what it's purpose was. I'm assuming it's a power device to provide water pressure, but why don't all old buildings have them? I stayed in several places that were rather old, and none of them other than this one had one. I'm curious about it, because I've since learned that these are more commonplace in that part of the world than I thought.
