    Who fits a power shower an electrician or plumber? How much roughly would they charge (drimnagh in Dublin 12)?

    Also which type should I get if we have a good supply of hot water but there will be mornings (like today!) when I forget to leave the heat on and theres no hot water at all. I see theres electrical or power showers is there a difference?

    Electrical showers heat a cold water feed, no hot water required. Electrical showers are more difficult to install as they need their own feed from your tank in the attic.

    Power showers are basically a pump with no heating element. It runs off the plumbing already present in your shower.

    Both need electrical wires run to them. The electrical shower will need a new RCD in your fusebox.

    A plumber would fit both.

    No idea on costs
