A universal embedding system for sanitary fittings, comprising three macro-groups adapted to be removably functionally associated, said macro-groups comprising a first universal embedding macro-group with a manifold body, a second macro-group of functional components/groups and a third macro-group of aesthetic parts,
- wherein said second macro-group of functional components/groups is constituted by two single modular elements, a first element having only a switching function and a second element having only a mixing function, and each element being adapted to be mounted to said manifold body (3) at four positions, each rotated by 90°,
- wherein said universal embedding macro-group is adapted to be installed at at least four positions, each rotated by 90°, thereby providing four different finished product embodiments.
