Electric ShowersElectric Showers require cold water only which is heated instantly to provide a hot shower. – An electric shower only heats the water you use once the shower is switched on. It does not use the hot water heated or stored by the household water system – An electric shower is always ready to use 24 hours a day seven days a week -The higher the kilowatt power rating (kW) the better performance and greater the flow of heated water | Mixer ShowersMixer showers require hot and cold water which is ‘mixed’ together to provide a hot shower. – Mixer showers use the hot water heated by the household water system – Generally produce higher flow rates compared to electric showers – Mixer showers must be matched to your household water system. High pressure systems such as combi boilers, are ideal for mixer showers -Add a pump on a low pressure systems to to boost water flow rates | Power ShowersPower showers require hot and cold water which is ‘mixed’ together and the built in pump increases water flow, to provide a hot shower. -Power showers are made for use on low pressure systems only. An internal pump increases the flow of water to provide a powerful shower – Power showers are not to be confused with electric showers as they do not heat water -Generally produce higher flow rates than electric showers and many mixer showers |
Gravity fed hot water system
This system has a cold water tank in the loft or in the top of the airing cupboard and a hot water cylinder below it. The water in the cylinder is heated by a boiler or an electric immersion heater and fed to taps via a pipe from the top of the cylinder. As the hot water in the cylinder is used up, it is replaced with cold water from the tank above, which in turn is refilled from the mains water supply via a float operated valve. System water pressure is usually low. To give a higher pressure and flow rate from a mixer shower a booster pump can be installed.
Gravity fed hot water system with Booster Pump
This system has a cold water tank in the loft or in the top of the airing cupboard and a hot water cylinder below it. The water in the cylinder is heated by a boiler or an electric immersion heater and fed to taps via a pipe from the top of the cylinder. As the hot water in the cylinder is used up, it is replaced with cold water from the tank above, which in turn is refilled from the mains water supply via a float operated valve. System water pressure is increased due to the addition of a Booster Pump.
Unvented System
An unvented system has a hot water cylinder that is connected directly to the mains cold water supply and there is no need for a cold water tank in the home. The water is heated by a boiler or an electric immersion heater. As everything is under the pressure of mains water, the flow rates from taps and showers are much better and a pump is not needed to get a powerful shower. An unvented cylinder can be installed virtually anywhere e.g. in an airing cupboard or garage.
Combination Boiler
A combi – boiler can be located anywhere within the home. More often wall mounted but some are floor mounted. It heats water ‘on demand’ when a hot tap or mixer shower is turned on. Connected directly to the mains cold water supply at high pressure there is no need for a hot water cylinder, cold water tank or shower pump in the home.

Good shower would recommend, only negative would be the chrome finish does show up the limescale so needs a wipe over after each use.
Love the shower but didn’t like the packing the box was battered lucky shower was ok
i used this product to replace a Triton opal 3 shower which went on the blink, and it was almost a straight swap so fitting it was easy. So far it is working perfectly and i am very pleased with it.
Ha Ha this did not match up to previous pipework, but plumber managed to do it in the end. this was despite previous shower was same make !!! Hopefully this will last longer than the last one. this is shower number 3 in 7 years. We live in Dorset which is a very hard water area. this shower dribbles after turning off, which is a design feature to try and stop it gunking up.The temp monitor works well when someone flushes the loo it doesnt go HOT. Son very happy with this feature, wont have to hear him shouting about who flushed the loo. He He

Easily installed with existing fittings, shower looks good and more importantly has staged shut down so it doesnt fur up the heating element. Well recommended. Gives a good shower and the temperature dial isnt prone to wear like cheaper showers.

Bought to replace aquatronic,same shower but with a different name. Does not affect performance and because it was same shower installed in less than hour.
Does what it says on the tin. Not the most powerful, but gets nice and hot.
Stylish, efficient shower with a good, directional shower head which minimises splashes where you don’t want them! Only down side is the chrome finish of the casing looks streaky when it does get splashed.
This is the third time I’ve had this exact same shower. Love i
Looks great and works well. We brought a bigger hose but the shower itself is perfect.
This shower is exactly the same as one I bought nearly 3 years ago and therefore quite easy to instal. The cost now is less than what I paid 3 years earlier. I just hope that t his one lasts longe
Unfortunately my shower arrived defective. Having installed it, it immediately became apparent upon first start up when there was a loud repetitive clunking noise (during the commissioning process). This stopped as the flow rate was increased. But upon each subsequent srart up and stop, the same single clunk noise occurred. In short, this turned out to be a faulty solenoid valve. This also meant that because the valve wouldnt quite close properly, the shower would continually drip. However, I phoned Triton customer care and they sent out an engineer the following morning and within 30 minutes it was repaired. Excellent service. I wasnt sure about the chrone finish initially, but once installed, it looked great. It’s fairy quiet and with a 10.5 kW heater, flow rate is good. The shower head is chrome. Installation was straight forward, especially as it replaced my Triton Opal II, sharing the same mounting points, plumbing and electrical positions/connections (which is the main reason I opted for this particular model). The chrome finish buffs up quickly and easily with a dry microcloth. I only docked it one star because it arrived defective and created additional work and stress. Can’t fault Triton’s support though.
Bought this on the basis of previous reviews. Holes did NOT match up with previous shower (as described in a previous review) however meant that I just had to drill one more hole.
Again as per previous reviews wasn’t looking for a chrome shower, ( to replace a white shower), BUT have to concede that it does look excellent.
Had it for over a month now and still functioning well for a 9.5kW shower.
Very smart addition to our bathroom ..Very good product and would not hesitate to recommend it to others.
Delighted with this shower, it has good flow and easy heat control.
Brilliant. Easy to install, looks really smart. Pressure and temperature spot on.
Excellent arrived on time looks good and works well what more can I ask
This shower is brilliant. It looks good and works extremely well. The head is quite large and so you get a nice amount of water jets, making your shower really nice. I had my plumber put it in and it was easy to install. Would definitely recommend this.
bought this to replace a Triton opal that was approx 5 years old and had never given me a problem. Checked the pipe work and cables were in the same place and the dimensions were approx the same and it worked a treat. I installed the shower in about 30 minutes with a couple of spanners, a screwdriver. No need to drill, all the holes were in exactly the same place. Good product with a two year guarantee for pets and labour.

Liked the chrome effect to match in with my bathroom, was concerned it would look cheap and plasticy but it doesn’t. Really pleased with how it looks and works.
Great shower at a great price, we are delighted with it. Although packaging had been opened, all parts were there.
So, now it’s on the wall what’s it like? I must admit I wasn’t too excited by the all-over chrome finish in the pictures, a bit clinical/industrial for my taste – but I have to say it does look good now it’s in situ. Our bathroom has white tiling all over and that reflects to give the chrome a lighter feel that I’d expected. What I hadn’t considered was that being chrome the whole thing is a slightly convex mirror. It doesn’t steam up either. So if you’re not replacing an existing shower, have a think about its position vertically – you could exaggerate or reduce your proportions to best effect – get it wrong and you might want to keep your back to the wall 🙂
I like the three buttons which are flush with the main body and the little leds look good too.
I liked the Trance, but it did have a couple of annoying things which I think this one has corrected. Worst was the riser rail – on the Trance this started to corrode in no time, I think it was aluminium. This one is heavier so I think it’s stainless steel and hopefully will stay shiny. Also I never much liked the lever to adjust the height of the shower head. This one has a button instead which both looks and works better. Another small irritation was the way the temperature dial had nothing in the way of a pointer so you could easily see the setting. Instead, it had numbers printed around the rim of the dial, rather than the front face, which you had to line up with a marker underneath the dial. But since it stuck out about 3cm, you’d have to kneel on the floor to see the marker – unless you had installed the shower above eye level. Bad design. This one has a dial with a raised marker, which points upwards at normal settings, so you can see the setting at a glance before switching on.
Finally – a plea to all shower manufacturers. Many purchasers must be buying a replacement for an old one, like me, and won’t want to re-tile the whole room – so why not standardise the pipe and cable entry points, even the physical size and mounting holes, as a template? I appreciate you’d need several templates, but no need for almost every shower to be different, surely? And why not include somewhere in the product description a list of older models that have the same template. That would have saved me a lot of time.
The shower looks great and works very well. I was quite surprised by the pressure, as it is better than previous electric showers.
works fine looks good – 3 jet adjustments on the supplied showerhead to suit most tastes / needs (currently ours is set to the middle which is fine)
Excellent product, it arrived on time as indicated. Good price I would recommend to anyone looking for an electric shower.
details of item was clear,
price was fair,
easy to fit and works well,
would recommend to friends and family

That was a Triton Trance 9.5kw. I bought this one as a replacement as it was Triton and 9.5kw, my theory being that the fitting would be easier as it was a similar spec. Well the electrician fitted it with no problems so that was good. We have low pressure as we live in a ground floor flat so there isn’t alot of height between the water tank and the shower and all the previous showers have not given a very hot and powerful shower at all, more like a dribble.
Well this one is FANTASTIC! It is really hot even when set at less than half power, and the pressure of the spray is much better than we have ever had before. It also looks really smart in the chrome finish and minimilist design.
Overall I can’t recommend this shower enough, only problem is that I can’t get out of the shower in the mornings!
Purchased this shower to replace the same model but last one was a 9.5kw.
The water pressure is much better with a 10.5kw more like a power shower.
My last one blew up due to electrician not installing on the correct size cable, so it wasn’t down to quality. Ihave always had triton and found them very reliable.
This chrome shower looks great too.
Excellent product power is brilliant and it looks nice my son in law changed it in less than an hour would recommend this to anyone who wants a reasonably priced shower.

Our old shower had very little power. My husband fitted this one and it is much more powerful without having to do any pipework.
One point, the plastic ends on the riser rail (finishing trims) are very stiff to locate into the rail, try wd40 or a light smear of vaseline.
It’s a 9.5kw shower so if you choose this one, ensure that your supply cable and fuse can deal with the 8.6kw-9.5kw element – thats equal to an electric cooker, so quite powerful in the shower sector.
The shower comes with the usual accessories, shower head, hose, soap tray and adjusting bar. It was neatly packed and had clear instructions, but ensure you have a qualified electrician to fit, this is no diy shower unit.
It’s now fitted neatly into my shower enclosure and has a clear temperature dial and operation control.
I have chosen to add an extractor fan above as this unit does heat quite high.
My only choice now is choosing the shower gel! Might have to ask someone to help with that!!
This one is even better though as it’s slightly more powerfull than my other as it’s a 10.5kw but also looks nice & modern and is easy to use.

The pump on the shower is much stronger than my previous model and performs like a power shower.
PERFECT!!
