Charity help with replacing an electric shower

I had a fitted new heating system fitted six years ago and have since found out that because I receive Disability Living Allowance I could have had it fitted for free!! Well now my electric shower has given up the ghost so it needs replacing, does anyone know whether the schemes cover showers as well and if so who do I contact. Keeping my fingers crossed if anyone can help as I'm struggling financially at the moment.

  • I am not sure specifically, however you may be interested to know Argos are selling a well-priced electric shower at just under £45 right now. I purchased one during their recent promotions and got it for a tad over £38 in total. Reasonably easy to fit if you have basic plumbing and electrical skills.
  • Hi,

    sorry can't help, but have a read of this whilst waiting for someone who maybe can.

    Yes it covers showers.

    We had a old shower changed last year by social services, they fitted a mira shower I believe the work was contacted out to the council

    Both the work and shower were supplied free
