FAQs
Does this shower require a hot water tank?
No, as an electric shower, the Aqualisa eSense heats water on demand and does not require a separate hot water tank.
How often should I clean the showerhead?
It is recommended to clean the showerhead regularly, typically monthly, or more often if you have hard water, to prevent limescale build-up and maintain optimal spray.
What is the benefit of the automatic phased shutdown?
The automatic phased shutdown flushes out residual hot water after use, which helps to reduce limescale build-up, improving the shower's performance and durability over time.
Can I adjust the water flow rate as well as the temperature?
Yes, this shower offers alternative power settings which affect the water force and coverage, alongside separate temperature control.
What electrical power is required for this shower?
Electric showers require a significant electrical supply. Consult the product's technical specifications or installation manual for the exact power rating and ensure your home's wiring can accommodate it. Professional installation is mandatory.
What is the warranty period for this shower?
Please refer to the Aqualisa warranty documentation for the specific warranty period and terms applicable to this model. It is typically a 2-year warranty for most Aqualisa showers.
Troubleshooting
Shower not producing hot water
Check the power supply to the shower. Ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped. Verify that the water supply is turned on and that the shower is not set to cold. If the issue persists, professional inspection may be required.
Low water pressure or flow rate
Ensure the water main is fully open. Check the showerhead for any limescale build-up or blockages and clean it. Inspect the inlet hose for kinks or obstructions. Verify that the home's water pressure meets the shower's minimum requirements.
Temperature fluctuates erratically
Clean the shower filter and showerhead. Ensure no other hot water taps or appliances are being used simultaneously that could affect water temperature. If using a manual control, ensure it is set correctly. Persistent fluctuations may require professional servicing.
Over-temperature stop function engaging unexpectedly
This indicates the water is too hot. Check the temperature setting and reduce it. Ensure the thermostat is functioning correctly. If the issue is constant, consult the manual or a professional.
