[QUOTE="revjames, post: 387855, member: 5256"] Just been to have a look at this shower... Property its installed in is very remote and has rainwater tank and a pump/filter. Accessible by 4x4 or long walk. Customer switched it on, seemed to be working fine (he did say it made a burning smell after a while) anyway, smoke started coming out and I pulled the switch. I started taking the cover off and the top of the unit caught fire! managed to put it out and remove cover. The unit seems to be a cross between a power shower and an instantaneous one - 8.5kw. Connections loose on top of cylinder and wiring burned. I didnt think it was really repairable so recommended replacing it. Big sign inside telling me to stop - before removing unit from the wall call triton. I wondered if anyone has encountered these showers and if there is a better alternative for a pumped rainwater supply. [/QUOTE]
