Summary
The Mira Advance Flex Extra redefines the standard for safety-critical showering in domestic and healthcare settings. At its core, Mira Magni-flo™ technology delivers up to three times more flow than similar electric showers, even at low pressure, ensuring a vigorous wash without compromising safety. For both the property owner and the user, the Mira Clearscale™ system significantly reduces limescale build-up by up to 50%, prolonging the life of the unit and maintaining peak performance in hard water areas.
This model is designed with the user’s dignity in mind. The "Flex" kit includes a 1-metre extra-long riser rail and a 2-metre hose, facilitating effortless use for those in shower chairs or requiring caregiver assistance. The inclusion of a phased shutdown feature flushes hot water from the tank after use, protecting the next user from sudden temperature spikes. With its BEAB Care and RNIB Tried and Tested accreditation, this 8.7kW unit provides a reliable, clinically-safe solution for accessible adaptations.
