Why electric showers suit Palmers Green properties

Independent of your boiler — ideal for flats in Palmers Green

Electric showers heat cold mains water on demand using an internal element — no stored hot water, no boiler dependency. In Palmers Green flats and converted properties, this makes them the most practical shower solution when a combi boiler cannot supply simultaneous hot water demand.

Installation requires only a cold water connection and a dedicated electrical supply from the consumer unit. The kW rating determines flow: 8.5kW on a 6mm cable for moderate flow, 9.5kW on 6mm for improved flow, and 10.8kW on 10mm cable for maximum output. We size the cable and circuit breaker to the unit before starting.

All bathroom electrical work is Part P notifiable. We self-certify and notify Building Control on your behalf. RCD protection is fitted as standard on every installation. Thermostatic models available to prevent temperature surges in Palmers Green properties with variable mains pressure.

What we install

Electric shower services

8.5kW standard shower

Entry-level electric shower ideal for properties with lower mains pressure. Suitable for older London flats where a 6mm supply cable is already present. Reliable flow for everyday use.

9.5kW mid-range shower

The most popular choice for London households. Improved flow rate over 8.5kW units, operates independently of the boiler, and typically runs on a 6mm cable from a dedicated 40A MCB.

10.8kW high-power shower

Maximum flow rate for electric showers. Requires a 10mm supply cable and 45A RCD-protected circuit. Recommended for family homes and properties with good mains pressure.

Like-for-like replacement

Swap an existing electric shower unit onto the current supply cable and circuit without new cabling. Fastest and most cost-effective option where the existing wiring meets current regs.

New circuit installation

Full installation including new dedicated circuit from consumer unit, correctly sized cable run (6mm or 10mm), RCD protection, and Part P Building Regs notification to your local authority.

Thermostatic electric shower

Thermostatic models maintain a constant outlet temperature regardless of mains pressure fluctuations — ideal for London flats where pressure can vary. Prevents scalding and cold surges.
