I've had the non-wireless version for around five years. It's annoyed
me quite a bit, mainly because of Triton's poor quality and expensive
after-sales service:

- the over-pressure valve has gone a couple of times - which is
understandable, but the spares are v. expensive
- the inline water filter is not capable of sensible replacement
- the shower heads are not a good match for the fittings (a general
problem with showers, I find
- there is IMO a design fault which causes the low pressure light to
go on when this is not the case. triton must know about this but
continue to be happy charging you for a new PCB.

It has been ... OK ... as regards its general operation; plenty of
people here will tell you that an electric shower, even of 10.5kW, is
incapable of giving a decent flow rate. It's adequate for me, as long
as you know what to expect...

I like the remote control feature, & presumably the wireless version
is even better in this regard. I'm not sure whether I'd have one
again.

I chucked the electric showers we had out some 8 to 10 years ago now and
put in a couple of Caradon Mira power showers and I just wish I'd never
bother with the piles of cack and piss poor performance that the
electric ones were;!...

Well said. I've spent �150 or so roughly every 12months on replacing
Triton's and the like electric showers in some rented propertys for about 5
years. Totally exasperated, we've now been replacing them with Grohe shower
+ Salamander pumps + suitable tank where necessary, all with 5 years
warranty.

Ok it's cost �800 each but Ive had enough of crappy electric units that
deliver a weak piss at best, and a pathetic dribble at worst, *if* it
chooses to work...
