Ok, so I am looking for an electric shower. The 1st builder said Aqualisa are great and he has never had a problem with any one he has installed. 2nd builder, one who will be doing the job, recommends Triton.

Now Im not sure, what do you guys think????x

    Aqualisa over Triton each and every single time.

    Cheers

    Definitely Aqualisa - great showers and long guarantee and excellent customer service - we wouldn't fit anything else.

    Aqualisa but as the 2nd builder is installing , would talk to him.
    Why would he prefer Triton.?

    Thanks all! I think its just he hasn't installed Aqualisa before so probably thinking ease of job.

    So Mira is better??? Your really confusing me now. Lol

    If I say ease of installation plus overall showering experience who comes out on top....

    Aqualisa, Triton (tho I am now guessing least fave) or Mira?

    Really do appreciate the advice as I will be buying 'blind' of net as much cheaper.x

    Imo, 1st Mira, 2nd Aqualisa, 3rd triton.

    Before picking a shower, you need to find out what size of cable is installed or being installed. This will determin the KW of the shower.

    Thanks plumb1.

    Builder said he wants to see the shower then he can buy the correct cable. He said its up to us what KW we choose. Is this right?

    In your opinion would a £100 Argos Mira (mira go electric) be as good as/better than the Aqualisa quartz of the same KW? Or do you get what you pay for?

    I've just had a 9.5kW Mira Vie fitted, cost £101 from the local plumbers merchant and its brilliant! My builder said he only ever fits Mira showers. HTH!
