Shower Installation in Chatham

Heats cold water instantly using an electric element. Only needs a cold water supply. Works on low pressure (good for older Chatham properties with loft tanks). Needs an electrical professional to wire it (we'll do the plumbing only).

Mixes hot and cold water to the temperature you want. Needs hot and cold supplies with balanced pressure. Thermostatic mixers keep the temperature steady. Manual mixers are cheaper but the temperature fluctuates if someone uses water elsewhere.

A mixer shower with a built-in pump to boost pressure. Only works with a hot water cylinder (not combi boilers). Good for older properties with low pressure. Costs more but gives a powerful shower.

Controlled by a digital processor. You set the temperature and flow precisely. Expensive but reliable. Needs hot and cold supplies and sometimes needs a pump if pressure's low.

Properties off Military Road and near the hill often have low pressure from height. Test pressure at peak times (morning and evening) when neighbours are using water. Below 1 bar rules out standard mixer showers.

Combi boilers can't run power showers with pumps. Gravity systems with tanks in lofts need different shower types than mains pressure systems. Check what you have before choosing a shower type.

Electric showers need dedicated circuits from the consumer unit. Properties built before 1970 often need electrical upgrades first. Check if your electrical system can handle a new electric shower before we start plumbing work.

New showers need waste connections to existing soil pipes or external drainage. In terraced houses common around Luton and Walderslade, this sometimes means running pipes through multiple rooms or externally.
