shower

After replacing the boiler to a combi from a system the shower mixer no longer works correctly. I assume this is due to now having mains pressure from the hot side but essentially the mixer is always ON. Occasionally the internals seem to move enough to provide an OFF setting but it does not...

Hi Come someone please help. We recently moved into a old house with 2 X 80s shower room upstairs and a newish shower room downstairs, with a Thermostatic shower that's always been on the hot side and control valve not even turning a quarter of the way. This week we started combining the 2...

Hi, apologies if this is the wrong section. I'm in a bit of a pickle, our shower has started leaking, a lot, and it looks like there had been a small leak for a while that soaked through the grout (or round it) and destroyed the plasterboard behind it, this in turn allowed movement which made...

Hi all, I'm discussing with a plumber whether it's possible to replace a bathtub with a shower and storage space but am not doing a very good job of asking the right questions to work out if it's feasible from a space perspective as I don't have the technical terminology. What I'd like to...

I have got bldg reg approval for utility extension including W.C. However I would like to create a small 3 piece bathroom (shower, toilet, sink)instead of just a W.C. which would require it to be sited in a different corner than on the current plans. Do I need to resubmit for approval before...

Hi all, We are trying to ascertain what size cable we have for our current electric shower as we are purchasing a new one and need to know what kw we can get. The current shower is 8.5kw and ideally we'd like to go a little more powerful. Can anyone tell whether the current cable is 6mm or 10mm...

I have done several internet searches to try to identify it to no avail. The shower was getting cooler by the day requiring the temperature tap to be turned up and up. I suspect that the thermostatic valve needs cleaning but I would like to find out what valve it is in case I need spares. I...

I have had this creda shower for around 7 years or so and have had no problems. Bought one of those stone shower heads from ‘Showery’ last week and now discovered a leak. It appears to be originating from the base of the heater tank and then dripping down towards the outlet nozzle. I made sure...

Hi, We are considering installing two 45A shower in a single property (multible showers). I believe the incoming service fuse is 100A. The problem is, if both showers plus other devices are used it could exceed the 100A max. Would it not matter as it's unlikely both showers used at the...

Hi I recharged the air bubble in our megaflo a few weeks ago. Since then the pressure coming from our shower seems lower than normal (and temperature of water lower too). I normally let the megaflo gurgle for 30-60mins when recharging, before I get bored. But this time I let it go for a...

2100 wall to take 1800 bath/shower. I'm putting studs using bathroom boards at each end to bring the 2100 down to 1800ish (just over), but the stud at the taps end will cover that whole wall to lose the pipework for new sink/toilet also. The face of the tiles infringing on the plan/footprint of...
