Changes in water pressure elsewhere in the home can cause the temperature of some showers to fluctuate. The Mira Advance uses thermostatic technology to continually regulate the water temperature, helping to maintain a comfortable and consistent shower even when other taps or appliances are being used.
For additional protection, the maximum showering temperature can be set during installation. Four settings between 41°C and 48°C are available, making it easier to tailor the shower to the needs of the user.
Designed with Accessibility in Mind
The Mira Advance Care has been designed to make showering simpler for people with reduced vision, hearing or dexterity. High-contrast graphics, raised markings and light-touch controls make the shower easier to see and operate, while the matt-finished fascia helps minimise glare.
Clear audible beeps provide useful feedback when the shower is switched on or off and when it has reached the required temperature. Tactile clicks on the showerhead and central control provide additional feedback when making adjustments.
The shower has also received RNIB approval, having undergone user testing to assess its suitability for blind and partially sighted users.
Easy-Grip Showerhead with Three Spray Modes
Choose between three different spray patterns on these showers to find the setting that feels most comfortable. The showerhead features easy-to-operate controls and a friction-grip design that makes positioning straightforward, including for users with limited dexterity.
Rub-clean nozzles also make routine maintenance easier, as limescale deposits can simply be wiped away.
Mira Clearscale™ Technology
Limescale can gradually build up inside an electric shower, particularly in hard water areas, affecting its performance and potentially shortening its working life.
Mira Clearscale™ technology is designed to reduce limescale build-up by up to 50%. Longer heating elements and increased spacing between the coils help reduce the hot spots where scale can form, while the phased shutdown process flushes residual hot water from the unit after showering.
This helps maintain performance while protecting the shower's internal components over time.
Cold Water Supply Only
As an electric shower, the Mira Advance only requires a cold mains water supply. Water is heated inside the shower itself rather than being supplied from your household hot water system.
This means your shower isn't dependent on stored hot water from a cylinder or hot water produced elsewhere in the home, making it a practical option for busy households.
Phased Shutdown for Added Safety
When the shower is switched off, the Mira Advance continues to run briefly to flush hot water from the heating tank. This phased shutdown helps reduce limescale while also ensuring excessively hot water isn't left inside the unit for the next person who uses the shower.
BEAB Care Approved
The Mira Advance carries the BEAB Care Mark, which is awarded to products incorporating additional safety and performance features for applications where users may be more vulnerable.
BEAB Care requirements include stable water temperature and protection against scalding if the incoming water temperature or pressure changes rapidly, making approved products particularly suitable for environments such as care homes, hospitals and accessible bathrooms.
RNIB Tried and Tested
RNIB Tried and Tested accreditation helps blind and partially sighted people identify products that have been assessed for accessibility and usability.
The Mira Advance combines high-contrast graphics, tactile controls and audible feedback to make everyday operation as straightforward as possible for users with visual impairments.
10mm Recommended Cable Size
The electrical cable required for electric showers depends on its power rating and the individual installation. This shower recommends a 10mm cable.
Electrical installation must be carried out in accordance with current wiring regulations and the manufacturer's installation instructions.

We purchased this shower to replace a broken Mira Advance Thermostatic Electric Shower. It was a perfect replacement for our previous shower. Easy to install and fitted exactly where the other one was. No need to alter plumbing or electrical supply. Would recommend this to everyone. Really great shower , and reasonable priced.

My existing Mira Advance shower stopped working in the morning, no hot water and it was at least 9 years old as it was here when I moved in.
Ordered it from Plumbworld in the morning after to speaking to someone at Mira to get the newer replacement model. Even with next day delivery it was still cheaper than Screwfix and Toolstation.
Next day DPD delivery (thank you for NOT using Evri), email gave me a 1 hour delivery window. I arranged for someone to arrive 30 minutes after delivery slot. DPD delivered within slot time, old one out, new shower in. Everything lined up, even the screw holes to hold it on the wall and best of all the water inlet just screw back in.
The shower was back up and running with hot water. The shower is easy to use. Press to start, it beeps and when it gets to the set temperature it beeps to tell you you can get in now. So say you have it at #8 it beeps when it up to temperature.
Can't fault any part of the process.
Great service, great price, great DPD delivery and a great shower.

Originally, I bought this from Screwfix but was delivered with a crushed box. Quite poor. Bought from Plumbworld, perfectly delivered and protected - and £36 cheaper.
Not yet installed.

Our Mira Advance shower finaly gave up last week after 15years of faultless service (RIP).What make to buy next was never in question,it had to be a MIRA.We searched the web and found that MIRA still made the same "Advance Thermostatic 8.7kw Model" that we had and Plumbworld had the best price beating the nearest best price (Screwfix) by nearly "£30.00",now thats a LOT of money to save on one item and that included VAT and FREE delivery as well.I needed to check out some further information which the sales team sorted straight away and were very polite as well.I recieved regular email updates from plumbworld and also from the Courier service along with a great tracking service. The new Shower was delivered bang on time by a very smart and polite driver.Well done Plumbworld for providing a GREAT service,your at the top of our list for our future plumbing needs. Thankyou+++10/10

We had been without a shower for a week, and in a house with 4 women/girls, that was a catastrophy.
We found the exact replacement we needed, it wasn't the cheapest, a famous online retailer was £10.00 less, but couldn't delivered for nearly a week.
Having the shower delivered the next day, exactly on the time range promised was well worth the extra. Thank you..
