New electric shower or replace with mixer shower?
Hi, We have just moved into a new house that has a very old electric shower so we would like to replace it. We do have a combi boiler so we could install a mixer shower but I believe this can be quite costly. Is it worth it or should we just replace the electric shower? We have a 2.5k budget for this. Thanks

Change from Electric to Mixer Shower
We have a standalone electric shower that has stopped working. We believe this is due to the electrics or the coil as there is no water coming out from the wall mounted box. We ideally would like to change the electric shower to a traditional mixer shower, but we would like to know whether we need a plumber or an electrician or both to complete this job? Or is it simpler just to change to a new electric shower and have an engineer come out and replace it?
