    I am not sure what make it is. I looked up on Trevi's website. The style definitely matches. But my shower knobs don't have any symbols or marks. The closest I can find to mine is this:

    Regarding the water pressure, I haven't noticed any change. It seems the same. But you could sneak an elephant past me and I wouldn't notice ;) Is there a way to check if the flowrate has increased?

    My shower installation is old. Would I be able to get a catridge for it? I have taken pictures of it...Is there a way to post it on this message?

    And thanks so much for answering my questions
    It sounds like a Trevi Therm shower or of that style. Has there been an increase in water pressure generally in your house?

    If the flowrate hasn't changed then it's worth giving the manufacturer's technical helpline a call, some showers are manually serviceable, some require cartridge changes when they go wrong. If it has a white 'T' on the control in a black circle then it's definitely Trevi which is made by Ideal Standard.
    The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket. :rolleyes:
