Replacement shower fitting?

Options

Hi all

I am waiting to replace my shower with a new one that is not a 10.8KW a one with a lower KW. 

But I want to make the new one will fit well when replacing the old one but I dont know if the current one is a Push fit join and if the one I like will fit well?

My current one is

The one I would like is

Or if anyone has any links to any that would fit well for the current one that would be very helpful.


Thanks

    For my money, I'd go for one with thermostatic control - The old electric shower that I had, you could never get a stable comfortable temperature. It was always too hot, or just plain freezing. Replaced it with a Triton T80Z and am well happy with it. Price has gone up a lot for that model since I got mine..

    Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.

    Hi Blackstar.
    Mira are (or certainly were) great at customer services, and they may even have a 'chat' feature, or Facebook page. I'd ask them - which models are the most direct replacement. 
    Or, download the instructions for both models, and compare?

    In the screwfix reviews for your current shower, one mentions having to buy a compression elbow to fit it. The covers are usually easy to get off to check (switch of at the mains first
