Hi
We have recently moved house and I am now an owner of a bathroom shower bar, with a pump in wall fitted behind it.
I replaced the shower head as the previous was useless, since doing so the temperature of the water in the shower only goes luke warm.
There is lots of pressure from the water and the heat of the water in the remainder of the house from the combi boiler is fine.
I have reset the thermostat cartridge in the shower bar, but made little difference.
I have assumed the thermostat cartridge in the shower base has gone, so I removed it but found the rear of the plastic cartridge is stuck in the shower bar and I can't get it out.
Any suggestions?
At the moment I am weighing up replacing the entire shower bar with a new one, bearing in mind the thermostat cartridge replacement will cost 40-60 pound anyway. Also the pump makes a buzz noise when the shower is on some times which I thought I could get a plumber to look at the same time.
Any ideas, suggestions or thoughts are appreciated.
