Hi
My Grandparents had an electric shower around 10 years back through a disability grant. The shower that was installed was a Mira Advance ATL Thermostatic. The water pressure on it is pretty pathetic at best and the temperature is not much better. The highest setting which one would expect to be unbearable is actually the right temperature for me which I don't think is right.
I have used electric showers in the past and the water pressure was never as good as one powered via the boiler but they were acceptable. The one installed for my grandparents is not even close to the same pressure that other electric showers I've used have been able to put out.
I've asked a plumber to come and have a look at it and the response I get is that electric showers are just like that.
What I would like to know is are modern electric showers better performers in terms of water pressure etc in which case the fix is an easy upgrade to a new one. If this isn't the case are there any modifications I can make to improve the performance.
Thanks
