Frequently Asked Questions about Shower Installation
Here are answers to the most common questions our Wokingham clients ask before booking a new shower installation with Thermotec.
Which type of shower is best for my home?
The best choice depends entirely on your existing plumbing system (boiler type, water pressure, and stored hot water capacity). Our Thermotec expert can advise you, but generally:
Mixer Showers: Excellent for homes with good water pressure and combi-boilers or hot water cylinders, offering a powerful, reliable flow.
Electric Showers: Ideal for homes with lower pressure or as a backup, as they heat water instantly and independently from your boiler.
Digital/Smart Showers: Perfect for modern homes, offering precise temperature control and smart features.
How long does a standard shower installation take?
For a straightforward like-for-like replacement (swapping an old mixer for a new mixer in the same position), the installation often takes less than a full day. For more complex jobs, such as converting from a mixer to an electric unit, moving pipework, or requiring minor tiling work, the job may take 1 to 2 days. We will provide a precise timeline when we issue your fixed quote.
How much does a new shower installation cost?
The cost is highly dependent on several factors, including:
Type of Shower: Digital or power showers typically cost more to install than standard mixer units.
Location Complexity: The price changes if we need to move the shower location or install new pipework and wiring.
Remedial Work: If new tiling or plastering is needed after installation.
Thermotec provides a detailed, fixed-price, upfront quote after an initial survey, ensuring you know the exact cost before any work begins.
Will I need a pump for my new shower?
If you have a traditional gravity-fed hot water system (hot water cylinder and cold water tank), you may need a pump to boost the water flow and achieve a powerful shower experience. If you have a combi-boiler system or unvented cylinder, a pump is typically not required. Our Wokingham engineers will test your current pressure and recommend the best course of action.
Is the installation work covered by a guarantee?
Yes. All new shower installations completed by Thermotec are covered by our comprehensive Workmanship Guarantee. We pride ourselves on providing leak-free, high-quality installations, giving you total peace of mind in your new bathroom setup.
