I’ve bought this to replace an identical unit installed over 12 years ago. It’s leaking and rather than mess around replacing worn parts, I’ve decided to replace with another unit which is exactly the same.
I need a plumber to install because the pipe and electrical works required are, in my view, best undertaken by a professional. I bought the same unit to minimise the work required; should be remove the old one, refit the new one in the same place. As a shower unit, I’m pleased with performance. It provides instant hot warm or cold shower water at a decent pressure. It’s easy to clean, the graphite Co,our gives a contemporary look and it’s cost effective. I’ve used the old shower daily, at least onc3 for over 12 years without any problems so I’m confident this replacement will offer value for money.
Direct replacement for existing one, saved re plumbing. Good quality hence using the same.
Replaced same unit like for like. The old one was installed before we moved into our house over 5 years ago. New unit didn’t work initially when installed and purged. Bracket holding the internal solenoid was bent. Remedied by my plumber. Fingers crossed the fix works for the lifetime of the uni
I had the same shower and it lasted 10 years so I just had to replace it with the same make and model ,you can get showers a lot cheaper but I consider this one to be worth every penny and it also looks good .
It did what I wanted it to which is replace the same model of shower, meaning no changes to the plumbing or electric wires.
This is the third one of these in 12 years in a shower which is only used by guests (maybe that’s the problem – also we do have hard water). It is annoying to have to replace the entire unit and the unique positioning of the plumbing keeps me coming back for the same one. When it’s working it’s great. So not 5 starts for those reasons.
Excellent shower a real quality product. My wife can no longer use the bath so we needed a good alternative which the Aqualisa is. Simple temperature control easy to use. Very pleased.
Bought this to replace an identical unit which failed after 9 years and an estimated 4500 showers. If this one lasts as long we will be quite happy.
This purchase was a replacement for the identical shower broke. It was cheaper to buy new than get the manufacturer to repair. This is my third one, they only last about 2 to 3 years. but they are good when working
As a like for like replacement I was expecting fitting to be easy; but a few attachments have moved so took a little bit longer. But works as expected. Shower head has improved so more control than previous versio
Bought this as a replacement for the same model that has served us well for many years, but that finally went to shower heaven a couple of weeks ago. As it was an exact replacement it was really easy to fit, old one off, new one connected. Supplied riser bar and shower head holder not quite as good quality as the old ones but still reasonable quality.
Needed a new shower as existing one stopped working, I new that it would be easier to buy the same again as everything would fit which it did. This was quiet expensive and if I had one complaint it would be that this was the fourth shower I’ve bought from this manufacturer all the same and each of the previous ones have failed with the same sympton which is that when you switch it , it comes on momentarily then switches off , which leads me to believe there must be a weakness in the circuitry somewhere.
This is now my 4th one of these in 6 years. They are a super shower, good flow, easy to use.
To be fair, it’s used at least 3 times every day, sometimes as much as 5 times a day. However I would still expect them to last longer than the 18months we ge
Good electric shower ,so easy to use and control the temperature
Tip. If you have black shower that needs changing buy a white one and change the covers, this will save you 100 near enough.
Old one of five years broke down we looked and found this shower was good value we looked at other brands but found this make is still best on price
when my shower packed up I wonted a direct replacement, as i was pleased with how it operated and its a one for one swop, so no mucking about with water inlet unions or electrics. Plus no drilling of new mounting holes.
This was an improvement to my last power shower(mira) and I’ll leave some comments below.
The front plastic cover felt cheap and thin.
The hot water was nice hot considering the winter season.
This isn’t a simple replace and install item as The pipe inlet is on the right rather than the left which left visual holes present on the tiles after installation. Youd think all manufacturers would keep it the same.
Update: 2022 December- shower is still performing. 3 years so fa
Bought as a direct replacement to a 3 year old one which developed the common problem of the power button/water valve seizing. It was on offer for half price so totally worth purchasing again as the temperature control, power and sleekness when it was working was worth going for again.
This is the fourth unit of this design in 9 years. We’ve stuck to this product simply because of the plumbing. The first lasted under heavy wear for an acceptable time but the second died in 25 months and the third in 18 months. I do wonder about the shower unit being switched on in cold position that may have contributed to its short life – that’s children for you..- the fourth is under adult supervision so time will tell. Simple to use, nice flow of water at good temperatures.
This purchase was an update to the Aqualisa shower we had 8 years ago. We had it fitted by a plumber who said it was straightforward as it fitted in the same place with the same connections. We are very happy with this model as it is an improvement on the previous model and has a better rating. All in all delighted with purchase.
Its installed, its been a week and working fine. For the registration and warranty you can contact Castelan 0800 408 4243. When I called they didn’t offer anything beyond the default 2 yr warranty period. I had the same model (in chrome) before and it lasted less than 5 years. Frankly speaking that’s bad for a shower..it should last longer but its now all become a money making scheme.
I bought this shower as an exact replacement for a previous shower because it looks great and performs brilliantly. There have been a few reviews concerning the reliability of this item, and I must say that we had some problems shortly before our old one stopped working completely. Having done a little research, there are two points that I have found that may solve reliability issues. First: if, after use, the shower head is left in a low position (such as in the shower basin or bath) for long enough for the water to drain from the hose, there is a risk that water will also drain from the shower’s internal heating unit. Therefore, before returning the shower head to its normal position above the shower unit, turn the temperature control to the fully cold position then turn the shower on for a few seconds to refill the hose and the heating element. This prevents a situation during subsequent use akin to turning on a kettle that has no water inside. Second: I noticed during installation that there is a warning label on the internal unit stating that the shower would not work properly unless the supplied oulet hose and shower head were employed. This suggests that if you replace these items after a few years then you ought to buy these from Aqualisa and not use some alternatives from other retailers.
A Which best buy and now having used it I can see why. A nice steady flow and adjusts quickly without burning or freezing you when another tap is turned on. The heat control is very simple to use and easy to turn, we haven’t needed to adjust it since installation as it always supplies the correct water temperature. And the price compared with the better known market leading makes made this a very easy decision (after many hours of research).
Very Nice and sleek. Most important of all – very quiet when heating water – without all the high pitched noises that our Mira shower emitted when choosing higher temperature setting (apparently a common compliant about Mira Sport). To replace our old Mira with this Aqualisa was so easy.
Be aware that the water connection is on the right hand side of the bottom edge as you look at it. The water flow is very good and consistent although recovery after someone flushes or turns a tap on isn’t quite as good as i was expecting. When you switch it off it keeps running until cold automatically which is a good feature. It is very smart and stylish and i am very pleased with it overall.
Delivered promptly and fitted it myself, to replace a similar product. However, I am going to watch this one closely as the previous one had an easy life over about 5 years before failing. Some of the previous design issues seem to have been eliminated, but if this does not give a reasonable service life (based upon number of uses), that’ll be it. The problem I experienced was with the on/off button failing. I could have just replaced it, but then risked having the heating engine fail and still needing a new one. Hence I decided on a replacement, keeping the old one for spares.
Bought as an identical replacement for one which failed after 6 years. Delivery was within a few days of order and it was up and running within an hour. Seems more powerful than the one it replaced although it is the same wattage. I think the spray head has been redesigned. All in all quite happy with the product.
