Triton Shower - loss of pressure when hot

[retrocircles]

Have a Triton shower, about 2 years old, cheap model. It's started to massively lose pressure, to the point it's unusable at a hot temperature, where it was fine before.

To get a decent pressure to shower & rinse hair, we're having to lower the temperature to nearly cold. A good way to wake up in the morning!

Any ideas on the diagnosis? Is it time for a new shower? Or could be a fault?

what model is it ? do you have 2 buttons , or a dial at the top for heat settings ,as well as a dial that you turn for hotter or colder settings lower down ?

Have attached a photo of the shower, if that helps.

so if you select high on the power selector ,and turn the other knob fully anti clockwise ( full flow cold position ) what is the result at the shower head ? it should give you a good rate of flow but not very hot.what do you get ?

For the sake of £50, just replace it if it is faulty.
