Aqualisa Quartz Electric 8.5 Very hot . No control over temperature.

When switching on my shower unit, the water temperature became very hot. There was no control over the range and the flow was slow indicating that the flow meter is probably faulty. Surely you should have a fail safe mode. i.e. temp goes to cold in the event of a failure of the flow meter. i.e. heater inhibited. Should be able to factor in a design to prevent possible scolding.

First check that the head and hose are not blocked and that the inlet valve to the shower is fully open.
These showers do have a TCO.
The function of the TCO is, if the water over heats it cuts the power off to the elements until the water cools, this can take up to 15mins
You may need a new engine if the fault continues.
