the shower man

A lot of people have electric showers and sometimes they just don't work right.  We had a problem and asked who fixes these and we were told, that's a job for the shower man, he comes up to Inishowen on Wednesdays.  Our unit needed some replacement parts and a new hose.  The shower works like it was new.

  2. I assume you mean a boiler for heating the water?

    1. It is an electric shower that is mounted on the wall of the shower. The water runs through it and heats up the water and then it comes out the shower head.
      Here is a link to show you a diagram of the unit.

    2. Thanks for your nice answer. I know a lot of ways to warm the water but this one was really unknown to me.

  13. We had one of those small hot water heaters for awhile and it worked well. Now, I'm not sure about this bizness...doth they clean your shower or your septic tank or both? Must you be in the shower when they clean it? Or must your dog be in the shower when they clean it? So many questions, so few answers. I may not be able to nap this afternoon! 😜

  15. I'll join the crowd and say I haven't heard of one either!

  16. I think this would be a real money saver.... no need to keep a tank of hot water ready all the time, even though the night. Hot water on demand, when it's needed in the shower. Good idea. Glad it's working OK now. You're probably a lot cleaner than you were last week!

  20. I'm not sure what you mean by electric shower Bill but I'm very glad you're back in action ☺ nothing like a hot shower to warm you up. We have our water heater by solar power, really good!

  22. This sort of "on demand" heating system isn't common in the U.S. Bravo that he got you up and running again.
