FAQs

What is the power rating of this shower?

This is a 9kW electric shower, which requires a dedicated and appropriately rated electrical circuit.

Can I use both shower heads at the same time?

Yes, the Triton Enlight DuElec allows you to seamlessly divert between the overhead shower and the handset, or use both simultaneously for a more immersive experience.

How does the Eco Mode work?

The Eco Mode is designed to help reduce water consumption and costs. It typically limits the shower session to approximately 5 minutes, providing a comfortable shower experience within that timeframe.

Do I need a hot water tank for this shower?

No, this is an electric shower, meaning it heats water on demand directly from the cold mains supply. It does not require a separate hot water tank or boiler.

What is the benefit of the real-time temperature feedback panel?

The feedback panel shows you the exact temperature of the water being delivered, allowing you to fine-tune your shower to your exact preference and ensure consistency every time you use it.

Is professional installation necessary?

Due to the high electrical power requirement, professional installation by a qualified electrician is strongly recommended to ensure safety and compliance with building regulations.

How do I clean the shower heads to prevent limescale?

Regularly clean the shower heads by soaking them in a mild descaler solution or white vinegar. Gently rub the rubber nozzles to dislodge any mineral deposits.

Troubleshooting

Shower is not heating

Check if the circuit breaker for the shower has tripped. Ensure the power supply is on. Verify that the water flow is sufficient, as most electric showers will not heat if the flow is too low. If the issue persists, contact a qualified electrician.

Inconsistent water temperature

Ensure the shower is not running on its lowest setting if it has temperature control options. Check for any blockages in the shower head or filters. If the problem is frequent fluctuations, especially when other appliances are used, it may indicate an issue with the incoming water temperature or pressure, or the shower's thermostatic valve. Contact a qualified engineer.

Low water pressure or flow rate

Check for limescale build-up in the shower head and handset; clean them as per the care instructions. Inspect the inlet filter for any debris or blockages. Ensure the main water valve to the property is fully open. If the problem persists, there might be an issue with the home's plumbing or the shower unit itself, requiring professional inspection.

Diverter not switching between heads

Ensure the diverter mechanism is fully engaged when switching. Check for any obstructions around the diverter. If the diverter feels stiff or is not operating smoothly, it might require professional attention.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Shower Heads: Regularly remove limescale build-up from the shower heads by soaking them in a mild descaler solution or vinegar. Use a soft cloth to wipe clean. For the handset, ensure the spray nozzles are clear. For the overhead shower, gently rub the rubber nozzles.
  • Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the shower unit and controls with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish. Dry with a clean, soft cloth.
