chrisjpainter Posted August 6, 2020 Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Long shot, but has anyone got one of these? Ours is a single and ceiling mounted, but on the day of a job interview all chaos broke out with the controls! It wouldn't turn up the pressure, then it wouldn't turn off, then it wouldn't turn on. Now the wireless controller won't turn on unless you take the battery out and put it in again, at which point, it would turn on by pressing the (-) button! I'm thinking it's the controller gone doolally. It feels like water ingress and that's causing all the controls to get confused with who's who. Mira want to send an engineer out for £260 including parts whatever's gone wrong...or we could just buy a new controller for £109. Anyone had any experience of similar things happening?

I knew someone who had one of these - had nothing but hassle and ended up replacing with a normal shower mixer!! I would ask Mira as well if the work is warrantied for a period though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't deliberate! the shower came with the house! I'm inclined to agree with you. It seems a bizarrely unnecessary invention. To date I don't think we've used the removable controller out of the shower for anything other than changing the batteries. As with a lot of technology, it's an elaborate solution to a non-existent problem! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted August 6, 2020 Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Well I hope you get the problem sorted without paying £260 for an engineer to visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
