Compatable replacement for pre 2012 Sport 9.0 kW

Dear Showerdoc



I need to replace my Mira Sport completely as the backplate has cracked and I realise that backplates are not sold separately. Given the recent new 2012 models of Mira Sport, what will be a compatible replacement that will fit my existing water and electrical connections without any modifications needed to these, please? (I don't mind if I need to drill some extra holes for mounting the unit.)



The MCB for the shower circuit is rated at 40 amps so the shower will be restricted to 9 kW. The water inlet previously supplied a much older Mira shower (>19 years old) and has a half inch tap connection with a nut just before the end of the pipework that screws fine directly onto the threaded end of the water inlet to the existing Mira Sport, even though the latter was designed for a compression fitting.



Also, when connecting up a replacement shower, will a fibre tap connection washer (half inch) be sufficient?



Regards

Keith

Without knowing the exact position of your water and electric connections it is hard to be exactly sure. Mira indicate that the new Multi fit Sport will be a  direct replacement for previous versions. A new fibre washer should sufice, but obviously this needs to be checked at installation.
