Vagabond Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 I need a new shower to replace the current antique. My last house was fitted with the 10.8 mira sport max, which was good but very expensive £250 plus fitting and the new 10mm wiring which bumped the cost up to over £400. Can someone recommend me a decent shower before i get the shaft again by the local plumber? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeX Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I'd stick with the Mira Sport - you can't go far wrong with that. If you get a "lesser" shower, you'll regret it due to poor performance and lack of control. Been there, done that! Just make sure that your water pressure is good before you start.....

Andrew Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I'm upgrading mine to a Mira Orbis 10.8kw in August. Can't go far wrong with them from what I hear. Incidentally, I've been quoted £400 to change my electrics since I need the cable, routing and new board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wanted to, you could ask the spark to provide the shower circuit on it's own sub board. This would comply with the regs (RCD or RCBO protection for the shower) and would mean the existing consumer unit remains as is. The only essential work beyond the new circuit is to make sure the earth bonding for main gas and main water pipes is 10mm green / yellow earth cable. Either way make sure the guy produces a Part P EIC- Electrical installation cert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Nice info, thanks Chris. Still not had the flaming room done! He did mention an RCD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
