Thanks for the tip. I played about with the cold water inlet but it didn't seem to help much - i think the flow might be a tiny bit better but it's not what i was used to before. It's difficult to compare because of the new appliances, but the shower head is nothing fancy so should be similar to...

Unfortunately there's no way I can go through the wall. Window mounting is my only option, and due to the size of the panes in sash window, i'm limited to 100mm/4in fans. I'm writing this at work, so can only check the fan itself when i get home in the evening. I did this last night, and I've...
