Mira Activate Digital Showers

Look at how your home supplies hot water: if you have a combi boiler that delivers mains-pressure hot water, the HP/Combi Mira Activate models are the right fit and will give stronger flow, especially useful if you want a rainfall head. If your house uses a cold-water tank in the loft and a hot cylinder, pick a Gravity Pumped version — it's designed for low-pressure systems and includes a pump to give a reliable shower. HP models generally perform better with multiple outlets, while gravity pumped units let you enjoy digital features and thermostatic control even on older plumbing.

One outlet is a single head, usually a handset or fixed head on a riser rail for a straightforward shower. Two outlets typically combine a main head (often a rainfall) and a handset so you can use either independently or sometimes at the same time. Three outlets add a third function such as body jets or a bath filler, giving you the option to run combinations for a spa-like experience. For example, a dual-head concealed Mira Activate lets you enjoy an overhead rainfall spray while switching to the handset for quick rinses.

ColdBoost™ is a guided cold water therapy feature built into the latest Mira Activate models that tailors the cold exposure to your comfort level. It's ideal if you want to try invigorating cold showers or timed cold sessions without guessing temperature or duration. Use it after exercise to wake up muscles or as a controlled way to build tolerance to cold water; if you have health concerns, check with a clinician before starting cold therapy.

Mira Activate lets you control temperature and spray mode from your smartphone so you can have your preferred temperature and spray ready before you step into the bathroom. That means you can start the shower from another room and enjoy the luxury of walking into a perfectly set shower, or select a saved profile for a quick, repeatable routine. The simple example is turning the shower on from bed so hot water and your favourite spray are waiting when you enter.

Prices on the range shown fall roughly between about £590 and £775 including VAT, with some dual-head or gravity-pumped variants at the higher end and single-head HP models at the lower end. You'll also see occasional discounts on specific models, so you can often find a savings opportunity without losing features like thermostatic control, smartphone operation or ColdBoost. Decide on the supply type and outlet configuration first, then match those needs to the price bands above.
