Hi Everyone, I have a question regarding the shower I have just fitted and hope somebody can help.
The shower I have is a Thermostatic Bar Mixer Shower and is the same as this http://www.plumbworld.co.uk/1673-15906
I have it connected to my hot and cold supply. The hot is supplied from my recently fitted Baxi 105HE Condensing Combi Boiler.
The problem is when I run the shower I have problems controlling the temperature, it always seems too hot.
When you adjust the temperature control handle it seems to make very little difference and then when it gets to a certain point you here a click inside and then it just runs freezing cold. To get it hot again (too hot!) you have to turn it virtually all the way back the other way when it ‘clicks’ again and then goes too hot.
When I say too hot, I don’t mean scolding, it’s just bearable to stand under.
Sorry for the long post but I’ve tried to give as much info as possible. I’ve tried adjusting the temperature output of my boiler but this doesn’t seem to help (I’ve now left it at 65oC which is what the shower instructions recommend)
Is there a way I should have commissioned the shower is it just knackered? I was under the impression you just plumbed these things up and they where already set up?
Help....
