Hello first post,
I have a roper rhodes storm shower/mixer tap on the bath this is attached to a shower kit from screwfix via the hose from the tap, the problem i have is it gets very hot even with the cold tap full on and the hot tap only just turned on to low when i use it for a shower ?.The temperature is ok if i turn the hot and cold tap on when using the tap for the bath but as soon as i turn the knob on the tap to shower mode it gets boiling hot when it comes out of the shower ? its like as soon as the water leaves the tap goes up the hose it gets hot and no cold is getting through but as soon as i revert back to running the water into the bath its ok again any help would be much appreciated.
Is this to do with the pressure off the water i have a combi boiler and live in a block of flats if this helps.
