water always scaulding hot

Hi. I have a redring quite recently installed which seems to be scaulding hot all the time on high setting. The flow rate does adjust when you turn dial and the house water pressure appears to be fine. What else could it be? Thanks

This relies on the mains pressure so is it connected to themains and not the low pressure domestic supply ?

If it is connected to the mains then the things to checkfirst 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 cool it properly, the overheat safety devicewill turn
the power off until it cools, then it then it starts to heat again andso on.

Make sure that the shower headis clean and clear, that the hose isn’t kinked (this can happen just behind thehand set where it is difficult to see) also check the inside of the hosealthough it can look OK on the outside it could have collapsed internally
