Bristan HY POWSHX W - Hydropower Thermostatic Power Shower - White

Product Information

Plumbers like the Event XS because it’s flexible and easy to install, particularly when replacing an existing Mira shower. Users tend to like it because it’s a solid and reliable option with a consistently strong, warm flow. Throw in the good-looking white and chrome rail, pipe and four-pattern shower head, and it’s easy to see why it’s so popular. I'm afraid the control knob was discontinued by Bristan themselves. From time to time manufacturers do make these decisions which is unfortunately outside of our control. Design is clearly important – you want a shower that’s going to fit in with the rest of your bathroom – while simple, logical controls are a must; we all hate standing in a cold shower trying to work out how to turn it on, turn it off or turn the temperature up.

Key specs – Maximum flow rate: 14l/min; Flow rate at minimum pressure: 8l/min; Minimum sustained water pressure: 0.01 bar; Maximum sustained water pressure: 0.5 bar; Controls: Rotary power and temperature, stop/start button; Dimensions: 210 x 310 x 130mm Push button 'Eco' mode means it can be a power shower or run as a gravity shower, if desired, for better economy.Even with the manual version you won’t have any worries about safety; it’s factory-set for a safe maximum temperature to avoid any accidental scalding. Meanwhile, you can still get a 12 litres per minute flow rate at the maximum 0.5 bar maintained pressure. The rotary control has an outer wheel to adjust flow with an inner temperature selector, keeping the compact design nice and clean without affecting ease of use. All in all, a great shower for your second bathroom or starter home.

Why can't I source a replacement thermostatic control knob, for a bristan hydropower 1500 power shower, they are still available to buy but I am told that the part I require is discontinued, the shower is only 2 years old. The Triton AS2000SR is the replacement for the much-loved, much-used AS2000XT and while it’s not quite as powerful as the old model, it makes up for it by being a whole lot quieter. Not only is it Quiet Mark approved, but users regularly comment on how amazingly quiet it is. Despite this, it can still provide a flow of up to 14 litres per minute at maximum pressure, and – with just a start/stop button and rotary temperature and flow controls – it’s also very easy to use. Triton also provides a decent rail with a soap dish and a five-pattern head and hose. With a maximum flow rate of 12 to 18 litres per minute, you’re looking at 96 to 144 litres over the course of an eight minute shower, as opposed to the 64 litres max you’re going to use in a typical 5 to 8 litre per minute electric shower. Of course, you could argue that a power shower will get you cleaner faster, particularly when it comes to rinsing out shampoo, but you need to be realistic. Unless you’re in and out of a shower in a jiffy, your power shower will probably cost you more to run.

While electric showers are one of the most expensive items in your home to run, power showers don’t actually heat your water, so – depending on your boiler – they’re usually cheaper to run in terms of energy. However, the downside of the power shower’s higher water flow is that you’re using more litres of water in the average five to eight minute shower, and the hot component of that water still needs heating. If you’re into long showers you could find the costs mounting up. The Bristan Group also own New Team and Showerforce brands which this power shower will directly replace.
