The shower head also benefits from an anti-limescale technology that means it will outlast other showerhead types and gives great performance, shower after shower. Mira use their Opi-flo Pro system to adjust the shower pressure as feed water pressure fluctuates, giving an even and consistent shower at all times. Meanwhile the thermostatic control ensures that the shower offers a consistent temperature too, with no fluctuations that can be dangerous and uncomfortable. The Mira Advance is proud to have been given approval and awards by a number of bodies and organisations including WRAS, KIWA UK, BEAB Care, BEAB and the RNIB Gold Award.

It features high contract graphics , raised markings and light-touch buttons, all to make things easier for those short on sight or lacking in dexterity. For those hard of hearing it benefits from clear, audible beeps so you know when the shower is on or off plus clicks on both the shower handset and central dial. 4 Different maximum temperature settings With the Mira Advance it’s now even easier to set a maximum temperature. You have a choice of 4 different maximum temperature settings that can be changed at the flick of a switch during installation thanks to the really clever PCB unit. What is limescale? Sometimes it can be hard to tell if your shower is suffering from a build-up of limescale as most of the damage is done internally. In some cases you will get a chalky residue appearing on your shower head which will be a good indicator that it’s also inside the shower unit. People living in hard water areas are definitely more susceptible to limescale so it’s critical to buy a shower that can effectively deal with it otherwise you may have to replace your appliances before you think.   How does Mira Clearscale™ help? Mira have designed their showers with longer heating elements and larger gaps between the coils ensuring that the heating tank produces a consistent temperature and eliminating hot spots which is where the limescale builds up. Delayed shutdown also assists by flushing out any leftover hot water.   Mira shower heads The nozzles on Mira shower heads also help deal with limescale due their rub-clean nature. A soft cloth can be used to simply wipe away any build ups keeping your shower head looking clean and functioning perfectly. 10mm cable size The right size cable depends on the kW rating of your shower. The higher the rating the greater the flow of heated water will be, so you need to be sure to choose the correct cable size for your shower. This particular shower recommends using a 10mm cable.
