Remove the old one, then reverse the process with the new one.

Prob a good idea to try and get the same shower or at least same make. Different brands have different water inlets some on the left some on the right, it will save having to move the plumbing and possibly the tiling if you change brands. |

Agree with this. I'd add that you should go for one with the same power output as you could overload your electric feed into the shower if it is a low amp cable. |

Ah the old one was an 8.5kw and the new one is 9.5kw. Bought a shower the same make though.
Would that be ok?

Do you know if the cable to the shower from the fuse board is 6mm or 10mm? and do you know if it's a 30 or 40 amp fuse/breaker in the fuse board. |

That's the best idea, get it checked out properly. The other thing with showers is we missed out and the garden needs a good soaking  |

Definitely the best plan. Water and electricity are not a good combination to "have a dabble" with |
