Technical specifications:
Maintains Constant Temperature In All Conditions: Standard showers can have hot temperature spikes when others in the house turn on taps or flush the toilet. Thermostatic control means that this shower will hold its temperature steady at all times. It dynamically adjusts the mix of hot and cold water, offsetting the everyday changes in water pressure experienced in most family homes.
Only A Cold Water Supply Required: Electric showers are by far the most convenient to install. They connect to a cold water supply only and not to your boiler, warming the water using an element inside the shower. So if you're worried about your brother, sister, partner, or anybody else using all the hot water in the house then this electric shower is certainly for you. Because no matter how much you use it, it won't run out or let you down when it comes to heat.
Visually & Audio Enhanced: Simple day-to-day activities such as showering shouldn’t be seen as daunting, and the Mira Advance does its best to make sure it’s not. It features high contrast graphics, raised markings, and light-touch buttons, all to make things easier for those short on sight or lacking in dexterity. For those hard of hearing, it benefits from clear, audible beeps so you know when the shower is on or off plus clicks on both the shower handset and central dial.
4 Different Maximum Temperature Settings: With the Mira Advance, it’s now even easier to set a maximum temperature. You have a choice of 4 different maximum temperature settings that can be changed at the flick of a switch during installation thanks to the really clever PCB unit.
10mm Cable Size: The right size cable depends on the kW rating of your shower. The higher the rating the greater the flow of heated water will be, so you need to be sure to choose the correct cable size for your shower. This particular shower recommends using a 10mm cable.
What Is Limescale? Sometimes it can be hard to tell if your shower is suffering from a build-up of limescale as most of the damage is done internally. In some cases, you will get a chalky residue appearing on your shower head which will be a good indicator that it’s also inside the shower unit. People living in hard water areas are definitely more susceptible to limescale so it’s critical to buy a shower that can effectively deal with it otherwise you may have to replace your appliances before you think.
How Does Mira ClearscaleTM Help? Mira have designed their showers with longer heating elements and larger gaps between the coils ensuring that the heating tank produces a consistent temperature and eliminates hot spots which is where the limescale builds up. Delayed shutdown also assists by flushing out any leftover hot water.
Mira Shower Heads: The nozzles on Mira shower heads also help deal with limescale due to their rub-clean nature. A soft cloth can be used to simply wipe away any build-ups keeping your shower head looking clean and functioning perfectly.
BEAB Care Approved: A BEAB Care Mark approved product will guarantee a stable water temperature. It also guarantees that the user will protect from scalding if there were rapid changes in incoming water temperatures. The BEAB Care Mark can only be awarded to products that already have standard BEAB approval meaning that the product has additional safety and performance features. These features have been developed to keep in mind the care industry like hospitals, care homes, and hotels.
RNIB Tried & Tested: RNIB approval on a product lets blind and partially sighted people know that it is suitable for them. RNIB tried and tested is based on a thorough user testing experience so you know that it’s been designed and made to suit your every need. It ensures that the product features the highest usability and accessibility for extra peace of mind.
