There’s literally nothing complicated about this Triton electric shower. You get a dial on the front of the control panel; simply turn it to increase or decrease the temperature — that’s it. Let’s start by making one thing clear: this isn’t the most powerful shower on the market. If you’re looking for an electric shower with maximum heat output, you need to head for the 10.5kW and 10.8kW models on this list.

There’s an adjustable riser kit, so if you’re swapping out an old shower, you can use it to cover up holes in the tiles. Ease Of Use [And Design] There is a slightly cheaper option in the Sport Max range of Mira electric showers — the 9kW Sport Max.

Of all the best electric showers on the market, the Triton Collection 2 is one of the easiest to fit. It’s built with Swivel-Fit technology, which means there’s a 180-degree swivel that makes fitting the shower easy, as the water inlet can be either on the left or right. Ease of Use [And Design] There are 100s more showers from top brands such as Triton, Bristan, Mira and Aqualisa we could add to this list; but we’ll round it out with the Bristan Glee 10.5kW electric shower. Make sure the temperature control (flow control valve) is regulating the flow of water through the unit, there should be a noticeable reduction in flow when turning towards the hotter settings. If water is unable to be fully discharged through the shower head, pressure can build up in the heater tank, which could prove to be dangerous. In such situations the PRD will blow, allowing this pressure to escape. As a result, you may notice a small leak from the bottom of the shower body. To establish the electricity cost firstly multiply the kW per hour tariff you are paying by the kW rating of the shower. The cost per shower is then dependent on the number of showers taken per hour.
