The Mira Excel BIV Thermostatic Concealed Mixer Shower combines precise thermostatic temperature control with a clean, understated design. The valve and pipework are concealed behind the wall, leaving the controls and shower fittings on display for a neat, uncluttered finish.
For anyone considering concealed valve mixer showers, the Excel offers the added benefits of Mira Magni-Flo™ technology, separate temperature and flow controls and a versatile four-spray handset.
Separate Temperature and Flow Controls
The Excel allows you to adjust the water temperature and flow independently, giving you greater control over how your shower feels.
You can increase or reduce the spray force without altering your selected temperature, making it easy to fine-tune the shower to suit your preference.
Precise Thermostatic Temperature Control
Changes in water pressure or temperature elsewhere in the home can cause ordinary showers to suddenly become hotter or colder. The Mira Excel uses thermostatic technology to recognise these changes and automatically adjust the hot and cold supplies.
This helps maintain a stable, comfortable shower temperature even when other water outlets are being used.
Maximum Temperature Stop
A built-in maximum temperature stop helps prevent an unsafe temperature from being selected accidentally.
If a hotter setting is required, the stop can be deliberately overridden using a discreet push button, providing additional control while reducing the chance of accidental adjustment.
Mira Magni-Flo™ Technology
Mira's Magni-Flo™ technology optimises the internal waterways through the valve to improve shower performance, particularly where available water pressure is lower.
Mira states that the technology can provide up to three times more flow than similar mixer showers, helping deliver satisfying performance across a wide range of suitable plumbing systems.
Four Spray Patterns
The supplied Mira Logic showerhead provides four different spray patterns:
Start — A balanced spray for everyday showering
Soothe — A gentler spray for a more relaxing shower
Force — A more concentrated, invigorating spray
Eco — Designed to provide comfortable showering while using less water
With four options available, different members of the household can easily choose the spray that suits them.
Rub-Clean Showerhead
The showerhead features rub-clean nozzles to make routine maintenance easier. Simply rub the flexible nozzles to help loosen limescale and other deposits, helping maintain good spray performance over time.
Designed to Resist Limescale
The Excel incorporates ceramic plate technology designed to resist limescale build-up within the valve. This can be particularly beneficial in hard water areas and helps support reliable operation over time.
Large Accessible Filters
Large filters help protect the shower valve from debris within the water supply while remaining easily accessible when maintenance is required.
Mira states that performance remains unaffected even when the filters are up to 50% blocked, helping the shower continue to perform consistently between servicing.
Suitable for a Wide Range of Water Systems
The Mira Excel is compatible with a broad range of domestic plumbing systems, including:
Gravity-fed hot and cold water supplies
Pumped gravity-fed hot and cold supplies
Fully modulating combination boilers
Instantaneous gas water heaters
Unvented mains-pressure hot and cold systems
Mains-pressure thermal stores
This versatility makes the Excel a practical option whether you're replacing existing mixer showers or installing a completely new shower.
Important Riser Rail Information
Mira Logic riser rails feature an indent at one end of the rail to assist with installation. This is an intentional part of the design and isn't a manufacturing fault.

Chose a Mira shower again to replace my old '88. Does need a larger opening with pipes spaced further apart but was still easily able to get it between the timber studwork. Mounted it onto batten at rear of partition wall, had to take care as there is a maximum thickness from the front of the shower valve to the front surface of in my case the tiles.
Tiles were 40 x 25 and in my instance I had to cut into two to make the large oval cutout required.
The outlet from the valve to the shower as suppllied is from the top (need to reverse hot/cold mechanism if you want it from bottom). I had to feed this through studwork to get a good placement. The coupling from the valve outlet pipe to the hose is quite difficult to fit and access from the rear would make it much easier as the coupling is held between a backplate behind the plaster. I managed to secure this by having pipe in place before fitting plsterboard, with the plasterboard having the backplate temporarily glued to it. Once in place I could put on the outer part of the coupling and get everything aligned before tiling. Once tiled I found that the screws for the coupling were only just long enough, also neededto lubricate the seals to allow the pipe to be inserted easily.
So, it took a while to fit, but the overall appearance is brilliant and I am very pleased with the product.
