Simplicity with quality

Elegant and minimal, we crafted the Pure E range to fit neatly into bathrooms of all shapes, sizes and styles. The clean lines and metallic touches combine classic grace and modern lightness and hence will always be appropriate to any look. If you wish, you can accessorise your shower cabin for even more versatility.

While we’ve created the Pure E range to reflect the ethos of affordable luxury, we stake our reputation on the build quality of all our shower cabins and the Pure E range meets our demanding standards. Just like its counterparts, it is built on a base of reinforced acrylic, over a steel frame, for maximum strength and has adjustable feet help to ensure stability on any bathroom floor.

The glass panels are made of safety glass to minimise the risk of cracks and chipping and the associated risk of cuts. We’re prepared to show we mean what we say when it comes to the reliability of our showers and so we give all our customers a warranty of at least two years. Since we’ve been in the bathroom business for over 15 years, you can be confident we’ll be around for you in the future, plus we’re based in the UK , so you have the backing of all, relevant UK consumer-protection laws.

Ease of installation and ease of use

We created the Pure E range with the idea of providing maximum impact with minimal cost and inconvenience. If you are at all competent at DIY, you’ll find it totally straightforward to put together our Pure E self-contained shower cabins , alternatively, there are plenty of professionals who can take on the job for an affordable price. The fact that our self-contained shower cabins can be placed directly in front of an un-tiled wall helps to make installation even easier and cheaper since it saves on the time and effort of tiling as well as the cost of the tiles.

The cabin shell itself is designed for straightforward self-assembly. Connection to the electrical supply for the built-in Triton shower must be performed by a Part P qualified electrician.

Every Pure E cabin ships with Vidalux’s standard delivery service, and express or next-day delivery is available if you need it sooner (next-day on orders placed before 12 noon).

We offer an 8.5KW model for those looking for the most economical option and a 9.5KW model for those who prefer a bit of extra power in their water flow. Like our shower cabins, our showers are made to the highest standards and are offered in neutral colours to fit in with any style of décor.

What’s inside a Pure E electric shower?

Each Pure E cabin runs a Triton electric shower, rated at 8.5kW or 9.5kW depending on the option you choose. Triton is one of Britain’s best-known electric shower manufacturers, and it’s the unit Vidalux builds into every Pure E cabin. It needs a cold water feed only. The glass is a full 6mm safety glass, on top of the cabin’s steel-framed, reinforced acrylic base. The smallest cabin in the range is the 800 x 800, and the largest is the 1200 x 800.

Once your shower cabin is installed, you’ll almost certainly be able to use it without the help of the comprehensive manual we provide. For safety reasons, both the controls and the (safety) glass shelf are placed high enough up the central column to be out of the way of curious little hands.

For older people, even the smallest of our Pure E shower cabins have enough space for seating and we offer two options for you, which have been optimised to provide safety and strength in the wet environment inside a shower.

You can choose from a flip-down, cabin-style seat or a wood-effect stool. We engineered the latter to give the look of wood, but with the safety of strong plastic which will neither splinter or rot in the wet. Likewise, the metallic legs will keep their sheen over the long term without rusting.

Protecting your bathroom and the people who use it

The results of water damage can be expensive. In bathrooms, leakage from standard shower enclosures is an everyday hazard and, as a minimum requires tiling to be regularly maintained and sometimes requires tiles to be replaced, which can be complicated as well as expensive. It’s even worse if the water seeps into the actual wall.

From a home owner’s perspective, one of the biggest advantages of our self-contained shower cabins is that they keep water safely within them, hence the fact that they can be placed against untiled walls.

From a user’s perspective, a self-contained shower cabin often provides a higher level of comfort and a feeling of greater privacy when compared to a standard shower enclosure and is miles ahead of over-bath showers. Put this together with the safety aspects we’ve already mentioned, which also help users to feel more comfortable and it’s easy to see why we think of our Pure E range as affordable investment pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Every Pure E cabin is built to run on a cold water feed only, because the Triton electric shower inside it heats the water. There’s no hot water supply to run to the cabin.

Yes. Every Pure E cabin comes complete with a Triton electric shower. It’s a fixed part of the Pure E rather than an optional extra, so the cabin isn’t supplied without it.

You choose the power rating, 8.5kW or 9.5kW, and the Triton model, which is Standard, Luxury White or Brushed Steel, with Luxury Black also offered on the black cabins. The 8.5kW is the more economical choice, and the 9.5kW gives a stronger flow.

Yes, choose the non-electric Pure range instead. The Pure E always includes its Triton, while the standard Pure cabins use a Vernet thermostatic valve in place of an electric shower and add body massage jets, which the Pure E doesn’t have.

No silicone is required on show. The Leak-Seal design does the sealing, with compression seals, a tray retaining lip and return channels that keep the water inside the cabin.

No. Electric showers carry an IP rating that doesn’t allow them inside an enclosed space where steam can gather, so Vidalux doesn’t supply any electric shower cabin with a roof.

The step into a Pure E cabin is 210mm, made up of a 150mm tray and a 60mm frame.

Allow at least 15mm from the floor to the underside of the waste fitting. Your waste pipe also needs to sit at, or close to, floor level, because a flexible waste that has to dip down to reach it won’t drain properly.

Roughly 70 to 80kg for the 800 x 800 and 80 to 90kg for the 1200 x 800, assembled without the doors. These are estimates rather than weighed figures.

The Pure E range comes in four sizes, 800 x 800, 900 x 900, 1000 x 1000 and 1200 x 800mm, each in Pure Black or Pure Crystal White glass. Every size stands 2150mm tall.
