11 Mira Choosing Your Shower

Page 1

Choosing your shower Step 1: What kind of water system do you have? Low pressure gravity system You’ll know you have this system if:

There’s a cold water tank in your loft and a hot water cylinder in your airing cupboard. We recommend:

Step 2: What type of shower do you need? If you’re replacing a shower and you don’t want to re-tile, it’s worth checking the position of the hot and cold water pipes and the shape and size of the replacement shower. That way you’ll be sure that the new shower fits over the old screw holes and onto the pipework. To make life easier, some of our mixer showers have adjustability on the inlet pipe centres.

High pressure mains pressure combination boiler

Mixer showers

You’ll know you have this system if:

You have a boiler the size of a small kitchen cupboard somewhere in your house – you won’t have hot and cold water tanks.

Mixer showers take water from both your hot and cold water supplies and mix it to create your ideal temperature.

Electric showers take water from your cold water supply and warm it by passing it safely over heating elements contained within the unit.

Cold mains supply only.

Our Eco showers use flow regulators to limit the maximum flow of water, and our Eco showerhead uses aerating technology to create the sensation of a normal, drenching flow while using a lot less water.
