FAQs
Is this plug compatible with all Mira showers?
No, this outlet blanking plug is specifically designed for Mira Excel shower systems only.
What is the benefit of using a blanking plug?
It provides a neat and secure way to cover an unused shower outlet, maintaining the aesthetic of your shower system and preventing potential issues like leaks or debris entry.
How do I know if I need this part?
You would need this part if you have a Mira Excel shower system with multiple outlets and wish to close off one that is not in use.
Do I need any special tools to install it?
Typically, no special tools are required. Hand-tightening is usually sufficient. A wrench may be used carefully for a final snug fit if needed.
What is the manufacturer's guarantee?
This is a genuine Mira product, covered by a manufacturer's guarantee. Please refer to Mira's warranty documentation for specific details.
Can I paint over the chrome finish?
It is not recommended to paint over the chrome finish, as standard paints may not adhere well and could chip or peel, especially in a high-moisture environment.
Troubleshooting
Plug is difficult to screw in
Ensure the threads are clean and free of debris. Verify you are using the correct plug for your Mira Excel system. Do not force the plug; check for cross-threading.
Slight water leak from the outlet
The plug may not be tightened sufficiently or the seal may be compromised. Try tightening the plug slightly more. If the leak persists, inspect the plug's sealing surface and the outlet threads for damage or debris.
Chrome finish appears dull or damaged
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. If the damage is significant, the plug may need to be replaced.
