Customer Service

Mira Showers guarantee products against any defect of
materials or workmanship for one year from the date of
purchase.

To validate the guarantee, please return your completed
registration card.

Within the guarantee period we will resolve defects, free of
charge, by repairing or replacing parts or modules as we may
choose.

To be free of charge, service work must only be undertaken
by Mira Showers or our approved agents in Northern Ireland
and Republic of Ireland.

Service under this guarantee does not affect the expiry date.
The guarantee on any exchanged parts or product ends when
the normal product guarantee period expires.

Not covered by this guarantee:

Damage or defects arising from incorrect installation, improper
use or lack of maintenance, including build-up of limescale.

Damage or defects if the product is taken apart, repaired or
modified by any person not authorised by Mira Showers or
our approved agents.

This guarantee is in addition to your statutory and other legal
rights.

Before using your shower

Please take the time to read and understand the operating
and safety instructions detailed in this manual.

What to do if something goes wrong

If when you first use your shower it doesn’t function correctly,
first contact your installer to check that installation and
commissioning are satisfactory and in accordance with the
instructions in this manual. We are on-hand to offer you or
your installer any advice you may need.

Should this not resolve the difficulty, simply contact our
Customer Services who will give every assistance, and if
necessary arrange for our service engineer to visit.

If later the performance of your shower declines,  consult this
manual  to see whether simple home maintenance is required.
Please call our Customer Services to talk the difficulty
through, request service under guarantee if applicable, or
take advantage of our comprehensive After-Sales service.

As part of our quality and training programme calls may be
recorded or monitored.

Our Customer Services Team is comprehensively trained to
provide every assistance you may need: help and advice,
spare parts or a service visit.

Spare Parts

We maintain an extensive stock of spares, and aim to have
functional parts available for ten years from the date of final
manufacture of the product.

Spares can be purchased from approved stockists or
merchants (locations on request) or direct from Customer
Services.

Spares direct will normally be despatched within two working
days. Payment can be made by Visa or Mastercard at the
time of ordering. Should payment by cheque be preferred a
pro-forma invoice will be sent.

Note!

 In the interests of safety, spares requiring exposure

to mains voltages can only be sent to competent persons.

Service

Our Service Force is available to provide a quality service
at a reasonable cost. You will have the assurance of a Mira
trained engineer/agent, genuine Mira spares – and a 12 month
guarantee on the repair.

Payment should be made directly to the Service Engineer/
Agent, using Visa, Mastercard or a cheque supported by a
banker’s card.
