Shower running hot!

Shower is running very hot all time even if turn temp down to lowest, would this mean thermostat has failed?

The first things to check are:

1 That the main valve coming into your house is fully open.


2 Then check that the valve on the line to the shower is fully open.


If these valves are not fully open then there may not be enough water getting to your shower to open the pressure switch therefore no power will get to the elements and the unit will show low pressure.


Forgetting about the temperature turn the shower from fully hot to fully cold at fully hot you should have not much more than a dribble coming from the hose and on fully cold you should have a good strong flow, if you do not have this difference then you may have a faulty flow/stabilizer valve.
Also check the head and hose are clear.

Hi
Thanks for your reply

I have checked the valves & they are all open.

I also checked the flow at full cold & full hot, like you said there was only a trickle at full hot & a good flow at full cold.

Any other suggestions of what the issue could be?

Thanks
