Made In The UK
Frames are handmade in Lincolnshire. We started off making the frames in our shed... but now they're made in a slightly bigger building about 2 miles from home. With each one being handmade by us, we can guarantee they're made to work... for the job they're designed for. -
Powder Coated
They're all powder coated by a Very Nice Man, just down the road from us. We used to hand spray the frames... but Mr Hippo ended up with very colourful nostril hair... and it wasn't as hardwearing as powder coating. So now we powder coat our frames to ensure they last. As we do each one to order, we can personalise them or colour match them. -
Gas Safety
All gas boilers are tested and commissioned before they leave us. We also take the boilers back for their annual service and repairs. We pride ourselves on the reliability of our boilers. They're designed to work. Using a battery powered pulse ignition, and no 'pilot' light to blow out, we proudly stand high above all our competitors. And we're so confident, we can offer a 5 year guarantee on our boilers.
Meet The Hippo Family!
We are a little family business, based in deepest Fenland in South Lincolnshire.
When none of the other showers on the market measured up to what we needed, and weren't safe enough to ensure Mrs Hippo wouldn't burn the yard down, Hippo Showers were born.
It was our mission to make something SAFE and useable. We didn't want to join the (dangerous) trend of strapping a gas bottle onto a sack barrow, next to a boiler containing actual flames. There are too many of 'those' types on the market and they wouldn't pass a basic safety gas check!
Our (Patent Office protected) designs combined with our super self-igniting boilers with auto-protection means you're in safe hands!
