Having had a run of bad luck with an electrical shower that kept blowing fuses I was told to pop down here as I could 'pick the brains' of the owner and maybe get to the root of the mystery.
The shop is quite old school; every nook is crammed with various electrical goods and parts. As they had quite a large selection of electrical showers I was able to point out my model and chatted to the man behind the counter as to why mine was blowing fuses at least once a week. He surmised that we were running the shower at too high a level for the cabling to ably carry the load and that was causing the fuses to blow.
After buying a new fuse mount and a few more spares I had a quick browse through the selection of kitchen appliances before heading home for a spot of DIY. The advice was good, after replace the scorched fuse mounts and running our shower on a lower heat setting to date the fuses have remained intact.
Pros: Personal touch. Good advice
Cons: Shop is cluttered so probably best to ask for what you want first. read more
