"Our Gainsborough 8.5 E shower has performed trouble-free for several years, then when water was discovered pouring out of the bottom left of the unit when the shower was turned on, thought I was confronted with a typical Sunday afternoon disaster! However, thanks to the handbook and on site information available I was able to quickly identify the problem that had occured, (PRD had activated) order a replacement online and now anticipate the shower being back in service within a few days. Thanks so far Gainsborough!"
Mr C Parry-Hardie, October 2012 - Mr Parry-Hardie bought an Outlet Pipe (PRD) Short

Mr A Crossley, May 2012 - Mr Crossley bought a Stanza 9.5 White Electric Shower
"The item was delivered the very next day before 08:30 and was exactly as ordered. Best service I have ever received from an Internet ordering service."A short video explaining what a Kilowatt rating of an electric shower means in terms of the flow of water from the showerhead. The second part highlights what you need to check before upgrading your electric shower to a higher kilowatt rated unit.
Instantaneous Electric showers are still one of the most popular types of shower sold in the UK today, which is why Triton manufactures an extensive range to suit all tastes and budgets.
If you haven't already noticed, they come in a variety of different kilowatt ratings from 7.0kW up to as high as 10.5kW.
But what does this mean to you? Basically the higher the kW rating -- the higher the flow of water from your showerhead.
For example — a 7.5kW shower giving a 40-degree Celsius shower in winter will deliver a flow rate of around 3 litres per minute. That's around this much water.
By comparison, a 10.5 kW shower can give 50% more flow from the showerhead than a 7.5kW shower.
That's around this much.
If you are thinking of upgrading your shower, you will need to check out a few things before you choose a higher kW rating.
You will need to check the water pressure and flow rate, the rating of the miniature circuit breaker or fuse in your consumer unit, and the size of electric cable running to your shower.
Why?
Well, a 7kW shower, for example, is likely to need 1 bar of water pressure delivering 8 litres of water per minute to the shower.
an MCB rated at 32A
and a cable size of 6mm2
On the other hand a 10.5kW shower will need 1.5 bar water pressure delivering 11 litres per minute to the shower
an MCB rated at 45A
and a cable size of 10mm2
Therefore you may need to upgrade your shower's electrical system to support a higher kilowatt shower.
