Pumped Electric Showers

A pumped electric shower lifts the flow and gives a stronger, more satisfying spray when your supply pressure is low, so you get a fuller shower without reworking your whole plumbing. On this page you'll find pumped options such as the Mira Elite SE range (9.8kW and 10.8kW variants) and the Triton T80SR 8.5kW, all designed to boost performance on low-pressure feeds. Some pumped models are also available with dual-head setups so you can have an overhead riser and a handset for flexible use. If you want thermostatic control with low-pressure operation, the Mira Advance 9kW is the thermostatic low-pressure option shown.

Pick a power rating that matches your hot-water source and desired flow, the range here includes 8.5kW, 9kW, 9.8kW and 10.8kW models; higher kW generally gives stronger flow and a hotter spray. The product details state typical cable sizes: 8.5kW needs 6mm² for runs up to 18m and 10mm² for 18–35m, while 9–10.8kW models typically specify 10mm²; for runs over 35m the product information notes a qualified assessment may be needed. a Mira Elite SE 9.8kW normally uses 10mm² cable for a typical wiring run.

Manual showers give you direct control of flow and temperature but rely on steady hot and cold supplies, so small supply changes affect the feel. Thermostatic units mix hot and cold to your set temperature and adjust automatically if supply conditions change, which is safer for households with children. Pressure-stabilised or microprocessor-controlled showers keep both flow and temperature steadier when other taps are used, useful in busy homes. If your water temperature swings when a washing machine runs, thermostatic or pressure-stabilised models will keep your shower comfortable.

Yes, the products in our range include single-outlet showers (most common) and at least one dual-head pumped model (the Mira Elite SE Dual Head 9.8kW) that gives two shower heads you can use independently or together. A dual-head setup is handy if you want an overhead fixed head for a luxurious rain effect plus a handset for rinsing hair or cleaning the cubicle. Expect the dual-head version to cost more than a single outlet example, here the dual-head 9.8kW is priced higher than the single-head equivalent.

Mira and Triton are the brands shown; Mira Elite SE models offer pumped performance at mid-range prices (the 9.8kW Elite SE at a lower to mid-range price point), while the Mira Advance 9kW thermostatic low-pressure model sits at a higher price point (around the current product price) because of its thermostatic safety and low-pressure tuning. Triton's T80SR 8.5kW is another pumped option in the mid-price bracket (around the current product price). Lower-cost pumped models give good boost and value, whereas pricier thermostatic or dual-head models add safety, finer temperature control and more functionality, useful if you have young children or want extra shower options.
