    That's a whole kit, looks to me like it's for using with an ordinary gravity feed or indeed a pumped feed, but not the pumped electric shower.

    Will these work with an ordinary Triton electric shower or are they just suitable for pumped shower systems ?


    Don't waste your money. I have seen these hooked up to electric showers before but never successfully. The hose part might work but not the rain head. You'd have to run around the shower to get wet. Your triton electric shower puts out 3 to 5 litres of water per minute depending on hot hot or cold your attic is on any given day. 5 litres would be a real exceptionally hot day. The bigger the shower head the more water you need. You'll need around 15 litres of water per minute to get a half decent shower with that rain head.

    Also using shower heads not designed for electric showers can cause problems with the shower. Biggest complaint is that it makes the water go hot and cold.

    If you are still interested find out the minimum flow rate (litres per minute) required for the rain head. You will get 3ish litres per minute from Oct to March and 4ish litres per minute the rest of the year. 5 litres when it's close to 30c outside so once or twice a year. Buying a genuine Triton shower head for around 35 euro will give you a more enjoyable experience
