Electric Showers

Electric showers are seen as the ‘go-to’ for households where the boiler or hot water cylinder is in short supply. This is because electric showers have an internal heating element and can therefore use water from a cold water supply and warm it up as you shower. Electric showers can be used in any home regardless of the plumbing system. One of the main features of an electric shower which is highly desirable is the constant supply of hot water, even if your boiler happens to break down or you run out of hot water, an electric shower will still be able to supply you with hot water from its internal heating elements. At Direct Heating Supplies we supply a vast range of durable and robust electric showers, see our full range here.

Mixer Showers

A mixer showers operates with a supply of both cold and hot water. Mixer showers mix existing hot and cold water within a valve before distributing it to the shower head where it is then released at a flow rate much stronger than most electric showers dependant on the pressure of your water system. Mixer showers are a popular choice amongst users who enjoy a variety of temperatures as it gives you fine control over your desired temperature. Thinking of purchasing a mixer shower?
