Shower Cord Switch Challenge.

Has anyone ever had customers complaining that they find it impossible to operate 45/50 Amp. ceiling shower cord switches. They just haven't got the strength.

Was was your solution?

    Why is it that some people have this compululsion to operate the shower switch when it is there solely to isolate the shower for servicing etc (or might be used urgently if a problem arises) otherwise it should be left well alone.

    I have a compulsion to turn the shower off at the pull cord because I have seen the innards of the shower, particularly the PCB.   I wouldn't trust it not to turn on spontaneously and waste a lot of expensive electricity and water

    probably a bit late now, but for family use, I have turned up some wooden ends for the pull switches to make them both easier to see, being a brown varnished wood, not white string against white tiles, and also easier to pull with a poor grip (I have parents with one of each problem). 

    I too have turned a number of cord pulls.  I then get them painted in canal boat style by a talented lady I know.

    Looks really nice
