What happens on the day
We follow a systematic procedure when installing an electric shower to ensure your bathroom is left clean, safe, and ready for immediate use.
- Circuit isolation and inspectionUpon arrival at your property, we locate the consumer unit, isolate the shower circuit safely, and inspect the existing wiring, terminal connections, and isolation switch.
- Unit mounting and connectionsThe old shower unit is removed from the wall. We mount the replacement casing, connect the cold water supply, terminate the live, neutral, and earth conductors, and fit the riser rail and head.
- Electrical testing and commissioningBefore packing away, we carry out earth loop impedance and continuity testing, energise the circuit, run the water on all heat settings, and issue the required electrical paperwork.

WhatsAppWhat is included in a like for like electric shower replacement?
A like for like replacement covers the safe isolation of the bathroom circuit, removal of your old shower unit, mounting the new unit on existing fixing and pipe positions, reconnecting the wiring, and functional testing to verify safe operation.
Can I replace my electric shower with a more powerful model?
You can upgrade to a higher kilowatt rating if your existing electrical cable and circuit breaker can support the increased current. We inspect the cable cross section and consumer unit ratings to determine whether your wiring can take the higher load without running a new cable.
Do I need a new consumer unit to install an electric shower?
A new consumer unit is only required if your existing board lacks residual current device protection, lacks available circuit capacity, or cannot handle the electrical load demanded by an electric shower. We inspect the board before undertaking any work.
Is an electric shower installation notifiable under building regulations?
Installing a brand new circuit in a bathroom is notifiable work. MX2 Electrical is NAPIT registered, meaning we handle the building control notification and issue the required electrical installation certificate upon completion. Straightforward like for like swaps on existing circuits generally do not require building control notification.
Do you supply the electric shower or do I purchase it?
We can fit a customer-purchased unit provided it matches the plumbing layout and electrical circuit capacity of your bathroom. Alternatively, we can provide a suitable shower model as part of the booking.
