Bear in mind that this one only runs from a gravity-fed system, and that while it might be tempting to run it from a mains supply you’re more likely to damage the shower than get a boost. However, electric showers need only the electric cable and a cold water supply, and work in situations where you haven’t got the gravity-fed pressure for a mixer model or a power shower. It has pretty good power and heat, and I love it when you turn it on and it waits for a few seconds before the power kicks in and WHOOSH!

The way it works is, inside the electric shower the coil has been designed in such a way that there are fewer hotspots for limescale to build up.

In addition to Clearscale™ technology, it also features Mira’s Sensi-flo™ technology, which is designed to prevent scalding from sudden surges of hot water. Features include Thermostatic Temperature Stability and Sensi-flo technology to help prevent the risk of scalding and phased shut-down to flush hot water from the tank to make it safe for the next user.The Thermostatic temperature stability keeps showering safe while the Sensi-flo prevents scalding in the event of loss of water pressure or if the showerhead or hose gets blocked. It was bought as a second shower - as electric to be there when the hot water failed but it’s used daily as a choice - bo different to the shower off the boiler! Mira have a repair service, but a brand new one from Plumbworld cost only a little more than a repair. Creators of the dual-outlet electric shower and the very first thermostatic mixer, Mira have won a number of design awards including the Queen's Award for Enterprise ( Mira Sport Max) and the Red Dot Award ( Mira Mode Digital Shower). This combined with Mira’s thermostatic temperature control system and superior build quality gives the ultimate showering experience.
