Water not as hot

Our shower tripped the circuit breaker and when we reset it worked fine but only on half the heat - had to turn the control knob up twice as far to get as much hot water as before, with subsequent loss of flow. Is it the heateing element that has half burned out? Are they straightforward to replace?

Yes it sounds like one of the elements in the heating tank has gone down.

The replacement is fairly straight forward.

Turn of the water and power you then have to dismantle most of the inside of the shower to get enough space to slip the old part out and the new part in.

This sounds more difficult than it actually is, however you do have to be methodical noting where screws/nuts etc. come from and what goes where and it is always a good idea to take photos as you go because you can refer to them when you are rebuilding.
