Working in Adwick le Street
We work right across Adwick le Street — DN5 and DN6 — and in neighbouring Bentley and Doncaster.
Adwick le Street gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If the shower in your Adwick le Street home swings between hot and cold, a thermostatic valve is usually the fix. If you want a shower in your Adwick le Street home that works when the boiler is off, an electric shower is worth considering, as long as the consumer unit can take the circuit.
Supplies across most of South Yorkshire are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Adwick le Street. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A check of your hot-water system, water pressure and flow rate
- Removal of the old shower, a full-flow test and a handover on isolating and descaling it
- New pipework and isolation valves, plus a pump only where the system is gravity-fed from a cold tank
- A bath screen, tray or enclosure where the shower is new
Decisions to make first
Digital shower
A wall panel sets the exact temperature and flow, while the mixing valve sits out of sight. It needs a power supply and suits a clean, concealed look.
Thermostatic mixer
Blends hot and cold from your system and holds the temperature steady when someone runs a tap. The usual choice with a combi or an unvented cylinder.
Rules that apply in England
In England, an electric shower usually needs its own dedicated circuit, often 40 to 45 amps for an 8.5 to 10.5 kW unit, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P. The Part G limit of 48 °C applies to a new bath in a new dwelling or one created by change of use, not to a shower, but a thermostatic valve gives similar protection. An unvented cylinder fitted to improve the shower must be installed by a G3-qualified installer.
