Shower problems
I have a 3 year old Jade Triton 8.5 kw shower bog standard electric.
Perfect service till last week when temp started to fluctuate cooler than
warmer etc. Rang help line and they said flush with cold only on for 25 muns
to clear scale and clean filter on inlet side.On undoing inlet pipe found
small piece of mesh as large as pencil end very grotty.Tried to buy
replacement and was told price 30!!!!!! as you had to buy solenoid in which
this mesh rests as well.I found some mesh in the junk box and used that
instead.
Problem still there although pressure is constant and good at the shower
head.
Any ideas before I start buying all the internals bit by bit until it`s
solved.
Cheers
