Great video - This is the SECOND time your video has helped me fix my shower; first a pressure valve 3 years ago, and today I replaced the Solenoid. This is an excellent video to help save money, stop unnecessary purchases and reduce waste. I doff my hat to you, sir.
Class video. Helped me identify my problem which was a leaking flow control valve. Turned out to be just a faulty O-ring going to the heater tank, replaced with new one and followed the video closely to re-assemble all the parts correctly without breaking any. Thanks again.
Very good advice which gave me the confidence to replace the Stabaliser Valve Seal in my TritonT80si( £8.00).This saved me the £45 + the cost to fully replace the Pressure switch. I did have to loosen the heater unit. Thank you
This along with your other videos helped me pinpoint and fix the problem with my electric shower. As a thank you, I have purchased the replacement part from your website. Keep up the good work!
Hi Mind Biz Thanks for your previous kind comments. Re your question Mixer v electric it is pretty much horses for courses, I personally would prefer a mixer shower however this is to some extent governed by how much energy the boiler can deliver to the hot water. A good electric shower will deliver 10kws so it would be worth checking what the output to the hot water your boiler can deliver. The Doc
My Triton Ivory 4 blew the PDR a few wks ago. I broke the tension clip on the outflow valve taking it apart so had to order a new outflow AND pdr. It arrived this week and after fitting it, a new leak started where the pressure switch plugs into the heating tank. I have watched this video today and followed every step. Everything seemed perfect. Now it is leaking again at the point where the pressure switch enters the heating tank. Advice plz before I yank the damn thing off the wall and launch it through the nearest window ;) 2 weeks w/out a shower and losing my sanity with it lol. TIA
Firstly let me thank you for your video which is very instructive.I just bought a Triton T70z.I install it myself following all the instructions in the manual.I did the commissioning.But water contines to flow though I turned the shower off.I need your help.Thank you.
It is the solenoid and it is at the bottom of the flow valve. You can find it on our website, just search for part number MIRA-1563.507, we have already answered similar questions there and these answers will likely help you with your problem.
I've got water leaking from the valve assemblies combined module/unit, do the O rings need replacing or does the whole unit need relacing please? I've got a Triton Rapture power shower...
Hello. Thanks for the video! I have a Triton T70Z electric shower. The power switch (top dial) doesn't work anymore, it moves in a continuous circle without clicking into place. What would be the fix for this?
Brill George, thanks to you mate i have fixed my shower many times, however how easy is it repair stabaliser valve seal on a triton t80si..I have bought a few parts from you in the past and your service is has always been first class with quick delivery ..i have just changed the selenoid{2nd time} and was told the reason its went again is because i didnt change the diaphram? is this right?.. Thanks again George.Oh and happy new year mate..
Hello Is their an easy way to remove the solenoid from a Triton Jade 2 shower unit.. I can get it to slide a little but it's obstructed by the unit casing to be removed fully Thanks.. Derek
My Creda 950DL electric shower doesn’t work properly. The Mid LED light stays off - water runs cold at full pressure. Turned the water flow dial to extreme hot - then water gets lukewarm, while the flow from the showerhead is weak. Both High LEDs stays on, while the Mid LED stay off. I then tried to remove component/s. However, after spending about an hour trying…I found they were not straightforward to remove. I then replaced the cover and left it. So, I guess it's got to be a new shower?!
hi I got Gainsborough 8.5 SE suddenly it has dropped water pressure only very less water is coming out i.e. much hot, I checked filter, hose, hand unit and water pressure are OK, I turned knob fully to cold but still less hot water i can hear heating boiling sound from shower then water becomes bit faster and then stops and process goes on same way, should solenoid needs to be replace, Please can you advice
My Triton T80i extra has developed a drip from the shower head. I Took the shower head and hose off and the drip was coming from the bottom of the unit. Removed the PRD (having watched your video) but the drip was emerging from inside the tube above the PRD. Can you advise on what I should inspect next? many thanks
I have to a triton Ivory 2 when I finished my morning shower and turned out off the water didn’t stop even with the electric off what do I need to replace to rectify this problem or am I better off getting a new shower ? Hope you can advise me and where I can purchase the items required .
Hi wonder if you can help. I have Triton car shower that though professionally installed in a house annexe 6 years ago has only been used about 6times! A guest using it the other day say he could no control the temperature and whatever adjustments he made it constantly ran too hot! Can you advise what to do? Thank you
hi shower Doctor, I have a T80si shower (over 10 years old) and have noticed over time (well in the last few weeks) that in order to get hot water I now have to increase the temp setting to almost it's top setting of 8 or 9 to get hot water where as before the settings 5 or 6 were fine, the water pressure seems ok, is it a case now for a new shower ? thank you Brian.
after switching on my Creda shower the water started to run then the shower stopped and tripped the switch for the shower on the fuse box. Any ideas what has failed on the shower?
Hi shower Doctor,i've noticed recently that when my shower is set for stronger flow,there is water dripping from behind the white casing,I'm terrified that it will connect with the electrics and electrocute me whilst using it.I'm not stupid but know ziltch about the workings of a shower,please advise.
Electric showers have seals designed to prevent water from even coming into contact with the water so absolutely no need to be frightened. You will not get electrocuted unless a gasket has worn out completely.
Hi i have a triton t80gsi and have no hot water.I have replaced the TCO but made no difference.Flow is ok and decreases when you turn to hotter setting as it should.Any ideas please?
Harriet Fricker When you replaced the TCO did you get hot water for a short while or did it just remain cold? It's very unusual for a new TCO to be faulty but do you have a digital multimeter to test it to see if it is okay?
how would i know that this part is fault? My shower is how and cold, could that be the reason? I check the pressure valve- all ok... my man is useless...

Hello George. Just found your site, and have been watching a few vido's, great advice and well explained.
Very very helpful practical and lots of little tips.
Excellent thanks a million! top quality and super informative.

Brill video i have a leak from the flow valve to the element you replaced is it better to replace the whole valve or can you just replace the o rings
I've got water leaking from the valve assemblies combined module/unit, do the O rings need replacing or does the whole unit need relacing please? I've got a Triton Rapture power shower...
Don't forget to tell people to switch the mains electricity off before working inside the shower!
Hello. Thanks for the video!

would you have a video to replace brushes in a triton t90 si unit?

My Mira sport shower 9.0 when on high to hot when on med very cold won’t adjust
Do i need part p to do this...
There is no user serviceable parts in the stabiliser valve, changing the whole thing is the way forward. Happy New Year to you too!
Make sure that the floor is dry before touching electrics!
Hi What about changing the solenoid is it the whole assembly or just the solenoid only. cheers
hi
I got Gainsborough 8.5 SE suddenly it has dropped water pressure only very less water is coming out i.e. much hot, I checked filter, hose, hand unit and water pressure are OK, I turned knob fully to cold but still less hot water i can hear heating boiling sound from shower then water becomes bit faster and then stops and process goes on same way, should solenoid needs to be replace, Please can you advice
looks like it doesent need a water connection,awazing
All very well but as the shower was not plumed in the is little chance of a leak ????
Ridiculous prices for parts. Sometimes its cost/time effective to buy a new unit.
My Triton T80i extra has developed a drip from the shower head. I Took the shower head and hose off and the drip was coming from the bottom of the unit.

Do you need to turn off the water to do this repair?
hi shower Doctor, I have a T80si shower (over 10 years old) and have noticed over time (well in the last few weeks) that in order to get hot water I now have to increase the temp setting to almost it's top setting of 8 or 9 to get hot water where as before the settings 5 or 6 were fine, the water pressure seems ok, is it a case now for a new shower ? thank you Brian.
my mira sport shower. has stopped working, think its the solenoid coil,how do I get to it there is a black plastic cover it/is it removable,thanks
Shower Doctor TV: Replacing a part inside an electric shower
If Mira alero keep stoping during shower what to do
@@gurdeepkaur1900 It's likely to be item 8 or 13 >> www.showerdoc.com/mira-alero-9-8kw-shower-spares
13 is the safest bet.
after switching on my Creda shower the water started to run then the shower stopped and tripped the switch for the shower on the fuse box. Any ideas what has failed on the shower?
i have TRITON T100XR and it has started to cut out, do i need new shower? thanks
