Hello I have an ancient Mira Sport Electric Shower that drips from the shower head when not in use. It drips every ten seconds or so. Not sure if this is diagnosable from photos alone? If it's clearly something simple for a non-DIYer like me to fix then that would be ideal. Otherwise I'll look...

Hi All I’m wondering what size end caps I need to isolate the H and C that goes to a bar shower when removed. I’m my mind I’m thinking it might be 3/4” BSP? Or is it bigger? Plus will I not need some firm of rubber/nylon washer to put in place as well?? Thanks

I have an old Worcester Bosch Greenstart HE plus combi boiler. 3 months ago the shower, which has been working perfectly for last 5 years, would start off at correct temperature and then after about 2 minutes would run cold. Just as it was running cold I heard the boiler fire up and after...

We have inherited a neglected shower in the en-suite with a house we bought recently. Is it possible to replace the manky peeling chrome waste on this Mira shower tray without remove the shower tray? I don't want to try and force it for fear of it coming to pieces and making work for myself...

Could anyone help identify this shower? Is it power shower? Any recommendations for an easy replacement? Thanks!

We have a gravity-fed system (well, there's no gravity about it, our water tank is in the airing cupboard). As a result, we get a mere dribble from our shower head. We want to install a shower with thermostatic mixer, with an overhead showerhead and a small hose showerhead so aware we need to...

Hi all - i have a mira sprint electric shower. A week or two ago it stopped working, had power, but no water. After some research i found that a faulty solenoid coil could be a sensible place to start. I ordered the part from Mira, and fitted it and was very happy as water flowed again...
