Hi all
My Mira Aquations shower has been playing up for many months now. After inquiring with Mira what to do about this I first of all exchanged the (£50+) cartridge, this at first gave an improvement but not a cure. I then consulted Mira again and they insisted that the pipework feeding the shower was creating air locks. So I have now recked the inside of our airing cupboard and rearranged the plumbing so there is now no possibility of air locking. The problem persists, in fact it is now worse than ever as now the cold will not come through either.
Incidentally this is not pumped and the head from the storage is about 3 to 3.5 meters, ample I would think. The pipework also passes by the shower and feeds the rest of the house no problem. When first installed the shower was absolutely perfect and worked well for about 18 months. From then on the only way to get it running each morning was to rattle the temperature control back and forth until there was a pop and the hot would come through. Once this was done the shower would work perfectly for each user then when left for a couple of hours it would stop once again.
Help me please, this is doing my head in!
