Why has my shower flow dropped?A sudden drop in water pressure is incredibly common in Somerset due to hard water scaling. Mineral deposits can quickly block your shower head or seize up your thermostatic valves. Alternatively, the issue could be linked to a failing shower pump or a fault within your hot water cylinder.Do I need an electric shower or a mixer shower?This depends entirely on your home's existing hot water setup. Mixer showers rely on your boiler or cylinder to blend hot and cold water, offering excellent flow rates if your pressure is good. Electric showers only require a cold mains water supply, heating the water on demand—making them a brilliant backup if your boiler breaks down.
