Hi guys, firstly, forgive me if this is really a question for a plumber, I know our plumber has fitted electrical showers for us in the past, I just thought I'd ask since you guys are pretty technical and have give such good advice in the past.
so, I have inherited a pretty decent shower with the house I bought last year, it's a Mira Advance ATL Thermostatic, it's a modern shower, but it's age is unknown, it's also a really good shower, and is around £285 + fitting to replace, hence, I just wonder if the issue is something that can be fixed, I hate wasting things, and don't particularly fancy the £285 either !
The shower works as expected, on high and low settings, then completely randomly stops, power goes off at the electric pull switch in the bathroom, and that requires pulling back on (sometimes more than once) when the shower has been reset, it will run for sometimes 30 seconds, other times I can get a week out of it. There are occasionally some fault lights which may indicate about water pressure. Unfortunately I don't have a habit of wearing my glasses in the shower, so am never prepared to examine exactly which fault lights are lit
I've a feeling that if the shower has some water pressure issue, that it could be an internal filter or similar which has become blocked up
I can turn off the water and electric to this thing, take the cover off and see if there's anything obvious..... or I could ask our plumber to do the same ?
just wonder if anyone has had a similar problem and has any advice,
Many Thanks
Paul
