A sudden drop in shower pressure is a frequent problem in Corsham households. Often, this is caused by a degraded microswitch, a blocked showerhead due to limescale, or an underlying issue with your mains water supply.If the heating element fails, the shower's thermal switch will cut the power to prevent boiling water from escaping, resulting in a lukewarm or completely cold shower. Before assuming you need a brand-new unit, let us take a look. We can diagnose whether a simple part replacement is needed or if a complete upgrade is the most cost-effective, long-term solution.
