    Can I turn on electric shower if water supply is isolated?

    Hi all, I'm trying to find the mains water isolation valve for an electric shower and I've found one that might be it but I need to test it, by presumably turning the shower on while the water is off. Is this safe to do and won't damage the shower? Thanks for the advice

    Electric shower problems

    My electric shower recently stopped heating water, i took a guess that it was probably the tco so replaced this. The shower heats up now but won't turn off and seems to overheat while making a strange noise. I'm taking another guess that i might need to replace the solenoid valve but thought i...

    Commercial - Electric vs Mixed Shower

    Hi all! I'm looking to open a commercial fitness space in London which will have 2 shower rooms (one shower in each room). Currently there's only toilets and sinks so would be creating showers from nothing. I'm being told electric will be easier and cheaper to install. But every electric shower...

    Hi there, I've recently renovated my bathroom including removing the old 10.5kw electric shower. The cable is still in place as impossible to remove. The cable from shower to isolator is disconnected and the mcb is switched off (taped down so no one switches on). When you test it the earth wire...

    Electric shower not receiving full power

    Hi, so recently my electric shower started running lukewarm at settings where it would usually run nice and hot. To get it to run hot, it has to be turned to higher settings, but with that, the water pressure drops significantly. I’ve also noticed that the half power light is no longer lit...

    This morning I was using our electric shower (Triton Enrich, 8.5 kW, 6 years old) when it virtually stopped.

    Leaking Mira Sport Max (10.8kW)

    I just noticed my electric shower started leaking cold water a couple days ago. It's a constant drip from the bottom-right of the case. I didn't notice any issues with how it operated, though. I opened it up, and there's generally quite a lot of water droplets (condensation?) on the inside...
