Shower Installation & Replacement Exeter

Bathroom Shower installers Exeter

Shower installation and replacement is the process of either setting up a new shower or replacing an existing one in a bathroom.

This involves connecting the necessary components, such as the showerhead, tap, and drain, and ensuring proper waterproofing measures are in place to prevent water damage.

If it's a new shower installation, it may also involve laying down the shower pan or base, tiling the walls and floor, and installing any additional features such as a shower shelf or bench. For shower replacement, the old shower is removed and the new one is installed using the existing pipework, drain, and electrical connections.

The process may also involve adjusting the height and position of the showerhead and tap, as well as ensuring proper ventilation and drainage to prevent moisture buildup.

In most cases, our professional Exeter shower installers have time served experience to produce a long lasting waterproof installation.

How showers Work with Combi Boilers and System Heat-Only Boilers

Thermostatic showers work by controlling the temperature of the water that comes out of the showerhead, ensuring that it remains consistent and safe.

With a combi boiler, the shower works by drawing water directly from the mains supply and heating it on demand as it flows through the boiler. The thermostatic shower valve regulates the temperature of the hot water that comes out of the showerhead by mixing it with cold water from the mains supply.

With a heat-only boiler, a separate hot water cylinder is used to store hot water that is heated by the boiler. The thermostatic shower valve controls the temperature of the water that flows out of the cylinder and through the showerhead, again by mixing it with cold water from the mains supply.

In both cases, the thermostatic shower valve has a built-in temperature control that allows the user to set the desired temperature of the water. The valve also contains a thermostat that monitors the temperature of the water and adjusts the mix of hot and cold water as needed to maintain a consistent temperature.

Overall, thermostatic showers are a popular choice for those with combi or heat-only boilers, as they provide reliable and precise temperature control, ensuring a comfortable and safe showering experience.
