[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 328375, member: 1607"] Triton showers do a wide range of models, although many do, they do not all have the same water and electrical entry points, including the non-branded items made for places such as Wickes. Without seeing the actual existing and replacement units, it can be wise to allow time for aligning pipes or cables etc rather than assuming a straight swap. Other problems include; if the existing unit has been tiled around rather than fitted on top of tiles or its not uncommon to find a failed or failing cord pull isolator, which may need replacement. Therefore anything from two hours to half a day could be more realistic for a shower replacement including full testing. I can be better to prime the customer about timescales which allow for common problems that can arise rather than giving just the cheapest quickest costs for if everything is straight forward. Doc H.
