    Would anyone know if I can buy a replacement cover for a Triton T90?
    I've had work done in a bathroom & part of the plastic cover (bottom & side piece) have disappeared.
    Is it possible to buy reacements? If so, where?
    Thanks!

    Try earth ridge in maynooth. I haven't a number handy but they supply spares for triton units.

    If it is a triton t90 Mark 1, Mark 1 1 or a triton t90i then you won't be able to get one as they are so old. You can still get parts for triton t90si, t90xr and the t90z. As stated in the post above EARTHRIDGE are your only hope in Ireland. No one else would have a part like this in stock.

    Where are you based? What's the exact model? Is it exactly a t90? I've some parts from an old Triton shower in my shed, I'll check to see what it is.
    I think I know the insert parts you mean but maybe a picture showing what yours looks like of what remains would help, are you after the inserts or the whole cover?

    It's a Triton T90xr so hopefully I'll be able to still source the piece.
    It's not the main cover but the piece of plastic that runs underneath & up the left hand side of the unit.
    At the moment I can look in from the left side & see pipes & wires - not good!
    I'll try & add a photo tmro from the computer.

    Thanks for your offer cerastes - really kind - if I can't source the piece I might take you up on that if you're sure you won't need it?

    I checked and the parts I have are for a t90i, might be compatible, if you can get a picture of what you have so can see if what I have matches.

    I'll have a look, is there something loose though? You'd wonder why it would leak or is it maybe something else dripping down onto the elbow?
    Op, the parts I have are not compatible for you, I replaced the 90i with the 90xr, different shape and layout of items.

    It took it out yesterday evening and i think you're right, the rubber seems fine, it must be something else leaking onto it....

    Take care to have the power off (obviously), you could search for a leak by possibly opening and ensuring the interior is dried of any leaks, operate it for a certain duration, switch it off and turn off power and then check for the leak again.
    I looked in the one just there in the last half hour, the elbow you have isnt the same as the one in my T90i, the one I had/have is white plastic and has an o-ring inside it, the connections to either end dont look the same either but the overall layout looks the same from what I can see.

    Is the leak definitely internal? there is a rubber seal? around the top edge, has that been pinched by the casing? is anything ever left up on top of it like shampoo/shower gel?
    or maybe the leak is from any of the parts above the elbow? it might be possible as a DIY seal repair, but probably best to try get the right o-ring.

    Thanks for your offer Cerastes & for checking for me. Looks like I can get the piece in Earthridge in Maynooth. I'll report back in case it helps anyone else in the future.
    Glad I don't have to replace the entire thing!

    Edit: thanks to everyone for the help & suggestions. Got the piece today in Earthridge.
