Water temp and leakage
Yesterday the water went immediately from hot to cold and started leaking from the outlet pipe. What has happened please?
Sounds like an element has gone and this has activated thepressure relief device.
See below
It may be afaulty element in the heating tank (there are two, three in most 10kw showers)you can check them with a multi meter you should have a reading of around12>18 ohms.
If you have power to the elements andno heat it's probably the elements, no power to the elements then it'sprobably a micro switch.

If you don’t have a multimeter wesell them at around £10 each with a link to an on line guide on how to use them for checking and testing the various partsof your shower.
Apart from helping to fix your shower,they are really useful for checking you have a power supply to appliances, forchecking fuses, letting you know much power you have left in batteries
(so you know if they are dud ornot) and lots of other jobs, in short they are well worth the £10.

I think the pressure relief device has blown.
It’s a safety device on the bottom of theheating tank.
It is fairly easy to replace however there isusually something that causes it to blow,
often a kink in the hose or the showerhead isblocked, so check this before fitting the new PRD.
