Supply your next bathroom installation with our comprehensive range of showers, enclosures, and essential plumbing accessories. Engineered for reliable performance across diverse water systems, these components ensure straightforward fitting for the trade and durable everyday operation for the homeowner.
Whether you are a heating engineer updating a domestic bathroom or a contractor outfitting a large residential development, our overarching shower category provides everything required for a fully watertight and compliant installation. We stock a versatile selection of electric, thermostatic mixer, and digital showers designed to match varying property water pressures and boiler setups. Beyond the primary shower units, this range encompasses essential trays, reinforced enclosures, and reliable accessories like fast-flow wastes, replacement hoses, and riser rails. For installers, features such as adjustable fixing centres, push-fit connections, and accessible traps help to minimise time on site and ensure leak-free finishes. For the homeowner, these coordinated components offer robust daily performance, precise temperature control, and straightforward maintenance. Read our frequently asked questions below to find out more about specifying the correct shower systems and accessories for your next project.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I determine which type of shower is compatible with a property's water system?
Selecting the correct shower depends entirely on the existing boiler and water pressure. Homes with a combi boiler or an unvented hot water cylinder provide high mains pressure, making them ideal for thermostatic mixer or digital showers. Conversely, older gravity-fed systems with a cold water tank in the loft and a hot water cylinder may require a shower pump to boost flow rates, or a dedicated power shower. If upgrading the central heating is not an option, an electric shower only requires a cold mains cold feed and a suitable electrical supply, offering a reliable fallback for properties with low hot water pressure.
What factors should installers consider when selecting shower wastes and trays?
Efficient drainage is critical to prevent leaks and water damage. Installers must match the waste to the specific shower tray, ensuring the trap has a high enough flow rate to handle the maximum output of the chosen shower unit. Low-profile shower trays often require specially designed shallow traps, which can present routing challenges if the existing floor joists run in the wrong direction. In these scenarios, tradespeople may need to use a raised tray on a riser kit or alter the waste pipework to achieve the necessary gradient for adequate wastewater clearance.
Are shower hoses, heads and riser rails universally compatible for replacements?
Most modern shower hoses and heads utilise a standard half-inch BSP connection, making them largely interchangeable across different brands and models. However, when replacing components on low-pressure gravity systems, it is important to select a shower head specifically designed to optimise low flow rates, as fitting a large deluge head will often result in a poor showering experience. When replacing riser rails, tradespeople should look for models with adjustable wall brackets, allowing them to utilise existing drill holes in the tiles and avoid unnecessary damage to the bathroom wall finish.
