Aqualisa Quartz 9.5kw Electric Shower - Not working!

[pipford]

Hi,

My Aqualisa Quartz 9.5kw Electric Shower has a few issues at the moment. Basically, the shower is going between very hot and very cold when it is on. It then randomly turns itself off but the water continues to run (cold). Obviously this is very annoying when showering!

I am keen to try and resolve this situation myself. As yet I haven't had a look inside the shower as I'm not sure what could be causing the problem/what I should be looking for...

Any thoughts/ideas would be most appreciated.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers.

How old is the shower?
