Hi all

I need some help.

I have just finished fitting my shower (been doing it for 18 months but only just got round to fitting the enclosure)

Anyway because I have such good water pressure in my house the shower struggles to maintain hot water temp.....say if Im running a bath I need to turn the tap down or the tap will run colder.

Is there any way I can adjust the water flow into the boiler in order to maintain the water temp?

Its a Ravenheat condensing boiler and the shower is simply two pipe and a tap.

What model Ravenheat is it?
It needs to be fully modulating for the shower to work well
Also there is an adjustment to be made on the diverter valve of many Ravenheats to alter the flow rate.

Opening another tap whilst running the shower will often have an adverse effect if the shower and boiler are not compatible
 
Blimey!

You want to run a shower AND a bath off a combi at the same time.

Dream on! And its a Ravenheat, so even miracles are out of the question.

:arrow: I'm afraid a basic combi can only deliver enough HW for one appliance at a time.
