Brand new electric shower and nothing but cold water? Any ideas? Almost like the tco keeps going but How on a new shower?


I don’t believe the plumber/electrician changed the hose and they just reused existing one as the new one wouldn’t of fit and would have had to had drill holes on show on tiles.

  • A good chance it is debris on the inlet resulting in low pressure but usually you get an indication of this on the shower control. If you have a Smart meter you may see an increase in power consumption briefly before the low pressure element protection activates. Presumably it has a cold setting and flow is fine. You could try switching from cold to heated and observe if the flow drops which it will if thermostat is operating.
