concealed electric shower?

holty · 23 Sep 2006

hi does anyone know were to get a concealed electric shower from. the customers got a fortic cylinder in an airing cuboard behind the bath, she wanted a thermo mixing shower, but obviuosly she cant, and the only option is an electric shower but trying to source a concealed electric one is hard so any clues were to get one if you can would be apreciated.ps im after a concealed one because she already has an electric one but hates the idea of it on the wall. and i can hide behind the studded wall in the airing cuboard.

triton used to make a model called the Aspirante about 4 years ago with a concealed heater that was quite neat. they can have a built in mixer if u fit a negative head booster pump which has a built in nuemattic air button to switch on the pump that you fit in the tiles. Aqualisa & Stuart Turner both make this type. More reliable than an electric shower in the long run & a far better shower. Only down side it will soon empty the cylinder.

I have seen a whole one example of an essex flange in the side of a fortic, with a pump on it. I was assured it didn't run dry! I suppose if you watch the flow rates it could be worth considering.

interesting, but iv just decided if the customers happy ,is to put a nice chrome finish electric shower, and build it flush in to the wall, and in the backside of the airing cuboard build a frame work to easily access the shower if need be but thanks people for the sujestions.

I've done a couple of the Aspirantis recently, very easy to fit you just run a wire to the panel and all the other work can be hidden. Triton T300si is almost the same. Must be easier than trying to cut/seal tile around a surface mounted shower set into the wall.

have a look at the second one down

They are a lot of money for a 4l/min shower. Main box is quite big too, had difficulty fitting one under a spa bath.

If you can afford a spa bath you can afford the shower

The Triton T300si is cheaper, starting at just over £200=VAT
