Rubbish timing I know but I have guests coming to stay this weekend and my shower has packed in at the most inconvenient moment.
As per the title, I have a old SupaJet 108 which has some sort of transformer in the airing cupboard wired to it. Anyhow, thats not the issue. I bought the place intending to rip out the whole bathroom but decided to put the refurb on hold until after xmas (doh!). I did however have the old boiler replaced with a combi system (Worcester Bosch) about 6 months ago and I think thats where the problem started.
Prior to the change of boiler the shower used to trickle but since then, the increase in bar has pushed the unit to the limits. Water pressure is great but components have begun to fail to the point where the shower packed in all together last night. I'm no plumber by any means but a very competent DIY'r in other aspects. Is there components i can change for this shower or is it fuubarred?? I've attached a pic of the components. Where the water is p*ss*ng out is the cold supply as it comes in (blue nut). Hoping to do a temporary fix, otherwise what options do I have? Bear in mind I am refurbishing the bathroom and already have the new shower unit but this is a completely different design.
Could I install a cheapo electric shower and put a stop end on the hot supply? (please excuse my ignorance).
Thanks in advance for any advice.
