Persistent problem with thermostatic shower
Hello, I have an exposed thermostatic shower mixer which has been cycling hot and cold, I was told to replace the shower but the new one has the same issue. The shower isgoes cold and hot after several minutes of working fine, and then starts to cycle. The previous shower worked fine for 8 years before the problem started, the combi boiler, also 8 years old and otherwise working fine, has been checked and the shower valves have been checked for debris. I am at a loss to what or where the problem lies. It’s a flat and the water pressure is low as is the flow rate and always has been, and I don’t believe this has changed recently but I can’t say for certain. Any ideas?! Thanks Rita
