Hi Joi,

The Mira Sport shower range are instant electric showers and require cold water mains supply and a minimum of bar pressure to activate the pressure switches inside which activates the shower. This will be why you are having pressure and temperature issues.

For your shower to operate it will require to be fitted to the mains supply and not the gravity stored cold. For gravity stored cold showers you need to look at the pumped electric shower in this link provided as they are purposely made fro low water situations where mains is not accessible.

Pumped electric range - www.showerdoc.com/showers/pumped-electric/mira

These showers have a pump inside and a heating element but they are only designed to give the esame pressure as standard electric shower.
