Product Information
Full details
The Mira Evoco Dual Thermostatic Mixer Shower is designed for homeowners seeking a stylish, reliable, and easy-to-install shower experience in contemporary bathrooms. Its key benefit is the dual-outlet functionality, allowing users to switch between a drenching overhead shower and a focused handset, offering a spa-like feel. A potential caveat is its requirement for a minimum maintained pressure of 1.0 bar, though it is designed to work even at low pressures. This fully concealed mixer shower features intuitive push-button controls, precise temperature adjustment, and Mira's Cool Shield™ technology for safe touchpoints, ensuring a minimalist aesthetic and a comfortable, safe shower for the whole family.

Troubleshooting
No water or low water flow
Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure the minimum maintained pressure of 1.0 bar is met. Verify that the filters within the shower valve are not blocked. Check that the diverter is correctly positioned to select a shower head.
Water temperature is too hot or too cold
Ensure the temperature control dial is set correctly. Check that the maximum temperature stop has not been incorrectly set. Verify that the hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected to the valve.
Temperature fluctuates during shower
This is typically caused by pressure changes in the water supply. Ensure the minimum pressure requirements are met and that other appliances are not being used simultaneously which could affect pressure.
Diverter between shower heads is stiff or not working
Check for any obstructions. Mineral buildup can sometimes affect moving parts; a gentle clean around the diverter mechanism might help. If the issue persists, professional inspection may be needed.
Cool Shield™ not effective
Cool Shield™ works by maintaining a cool surface. Ensure the shower is operating at normal temperatures. If the unit feels excessively hot, this may indicate an installation or water flow issue, and a professional should be consulted.
