The first decision you should make when installing a
shower in your bathroom is to pick between mixer and electric showers. Watch
out, because they also split into other variants as well... variants that may
best suit your type of bathroom or not. Electric showers are convenient because
they're not as high maintenance or difficult to install as mixers. Showermania
electric showers in particular only need an electrical supply, a cold water
supply, and some space... that's it. Of course, if you want your shower to come
really cheap, then you could do away with the electrical supply and brace
yourself for cold showers every time (hopefully, you won't catch pneumonia
during winter and whatnot).
Mixer Showers versus Electric Showers
·
A mixer shower can mix cold water from your regular
water system and hot water from the heating system plus your regular water
system to produce the perfect shower temperature that won't have you ending up
scalded and whatnot. The main advantage of such showers is that you'll get to
bath at the correct hotness/coldness regardless of season, plus you have a
wealth of choices to choose from. However, drops of weather temperature can
affect shower temperature as well.
·
Meanwhile, electric showers are more adept at
gauging the right temperature for you to bath by heating the shower water just
right. Then again, a lot of people are leery about installing electric showers
in light of the fact that electricity and water mix together too well, which
could lead to electrocution. Sure, these showers have passed all safety
standards, but you must ensure that a qualified tradesman is there to install
it.
·
Don't forget that mixer showers require decent cold
water pressure to operate. With that said, in terms of electric showers versus
mixer showers, you should buy them in accordance to your needs and what sort of
water system you've set up. If you're leery about electricity and your shower
being together, get a heater and a mixer shower setup.Click here to
