My Showerforce Easiboost shower started leaking water from the hot water side last night. Typically, its 2 years and 1 week old (1 week over 2 year warranty). Bsaed on this, I decided to look at what was wrong. Seems that a washer has broken apart - although given that its on the hot water side, I'm thinking that maybe the water from the cylinder is too hot and melted the washer? (feasible???).

Anyway - the upshot is that I need a new washer - problem is, I can't find one ! Any hints tips on what to do when the washer you need cannot be sourced? I've thought about buying something similar, but cutting it to match the broken one - but I dont think this is the best idea :LOL:

Any hints / tips? I'll try and get a photo up of the washer if it will help identify the type of washer that I need. I think its about 18mm wide (m6?)
