Adjusting the limiter to allow hotter water through

We have had our Sirrus 1600 shower since our house was newly built in 1998. I have always wanted to have the water a bit hotter than it has allowed. How can I adjust the thermostat to allow the top temperature to be a bit higher? Thanks

The temperature adjusting screw is down the centre of the valve you will need a long thinscrewdriver to adjust the temperature,

Remove the front cap turn the shower on to its hottest positionnext remove the knob retaining screw the water willrun out when you remove this screw, don’t worry about this. Place the long thin screwdriver down the centre spindle and screw anti clock wise for hotter clock wise forcooler.

When the temperature is a little hotter than you would like thenrefit the screw and cap the valve should be just a little hotter than yourequire when it is set at its hottest position.

If this doesn’t work then you will have to strip the valvedown give it a clean and lube and fit a seal kit or athermostat and piston assembly.
