Thermostat?

Asked 11 years ago by Jackie

First check that the head and hose are clear. If so then it may not be the shower but the boiler if it is of a combi.

To check whether you have a boiler or shower fault.

Turn the shower on as usual, try and get a hold of the pipe going to the shower, if you can’t get to the pipe at the shower you may be able to get to it as it leaves the boiler.

What ever the temperature is on/in this pipe, the shower can never get any hotter than that (So if the temperature is cool then something then at the boiler is not allowing the water to heat up enough)

The other fault is wide variations in the temperature of the water leaving the boiler.

A thermostatic shower valve should be able to even out small variations in temperature however if you have large variations then you have a boiler fault.
