Connect pipe to electric shower inlet

[sha256]

Hi Guys

I have brought a new electric shower and want to know what I need to connect the copper to the plastic inlet of the shower.

Thanks.

using the shower instructions that will be with your shower!!



If it is a nut and ring use a soft copper olive (usually supplied)
I have seen people (DIY) use flexi hoses but copper olive is the best way

You will need a 15mm compression elbow.

You can if you have the room, some showers haven't.
What model shower is it ?
Is it a new install or existing pipework ?
Are using rear entry pipework ?
