Upgrading Shower - Help!!

[skydog]

Ok this is may be a stupid question, but.........

I am upgrading my shower from a Showerforce 1500xt to a Mira Sport.

My question is:

What do you do to cap the hot water pipe which is currently connected to the Showerforce? As the Mira Sport only accepts a single cold water connection.

Thanks.

the cold feed will be tank fed as the xt is a power shower i think
The Sport will need a mains feed

Again this is going to sound stupid but..........

How can you tell the difference?

OK, Have had a look and it is definately gravity fed......

So what now?? Take it back to B&Q??

The present shower, even at Max temp, is like a tepid cup of tea....any suggestions before the whole lot goes out the window!!!!

Cheers

just replace it with another shoerforce power shower.

Probably the thermostat that is broken in your existing one assuming that the hot water is ok in the rest of your house.

An electric shower will be merely a trickle compared to a powershower anyway
