Shower ....not that hot.

Sabatinitennis · 8 Jan 2022

Just moved into a brand new two bed house.
There is a BAX combi boiler and underfloor heating which run off three thermostats and circuits.
I have turned the dial on the boiler that deals with heating water up to 57 (the maximum is 60), yet I do not get a HOT shower, just something a bit more than tepid.
It is my understanding that combi boilers just heat the water that you need, so, there should be no need to set the boiler to "come on" between certain hours.
Or have I got something wrong?

Correct re combi hot water always on.
Shower probably needs calibrating to make it hotter.
As you have a new build just get contractors to sort it.

Yup +1 ... if it's brand new then it's for them to sort

Is there an override temp for the shower? Make sure they’ve not supplied it with a tmv - it’s only a requirement for baths on new builds from 2010.
