Hey all,

Let me just say I will probably get a plumber in to do this, but I just wanted to confirm something that I think I already know...

So, our Grohe (low pressure/pumped) shower unit has gone pop, it's old, and Grohe no longer supports it. So time to buy another.

we were thinking of this one - Mira Platinum Valve & Controller (Pumped for Gravity)



Am I correct in thinking this would be the correct model to buy?

And am I correct in thinking this would be a straight swap - in so much as we/me/the plumber could disconnect the 3 pipes (hot/cold/output) and reconnect them to this, wire it and in theory, it should be good to go?

I'm also guessing we would need an electrician to wire this in too, but I have one over next week to wire up my garage so could be two birds with one stone there
