Aqualisa Aquatique
Installed this myself a few years ago in a new bathroom with shower over the bath. The cold supply is pumped at 3 bar from the cold water tank through a large bore plastic pipe. This divides when it gets to the bathroom. One branch for the cold goes to the shower unit and the other to a Britony balanced flue instantaneous gas water heater. So pressure at the shower is equal, but not taking account of the resistance of the water going through the boiler. However the max water temperature has never been HOT and now it is distinctly cool. I have taken the cartridge out, cleaned everything and put it back. No difference. Does it need to be replaced? (it is a grey one) and this time how can I get the water a bit hotter please? Should I have used the "pink/orange" one? Or something else?
Thanking you in advance and hey, this is a great idea!
You need to make sure that the pressures at the shower are equal.
Pink for a combi or multipoint and grey any system with balanced (equal) pressures.
You may have a faulty cartridge, and if replacing it I would stick with the grey one.
