Hi,
I have a mixer bar shower that has gone wrong and am hoping someone can give me an idea of whats wrong with it so I can either fix or at least get an accurate quote from a plumber for repairing.
The shower runs fine at cold temperatures but as soon as turn temperature up there is a buzzing noise from the bar and after a minute or two the flow drops so low that it is no longer calling for hot water from the combi boiler. Eventually if leave it it flow reduces to literally a drip.
Am pretty sure boiler is OK as hot water at a good flow rate to all taps including bath taps even when shower is at its drip stage.
This happens eve when all other water turned off so no taps or washing machine running.
The shower has only been in about 2 1/2 years thought it should last longer than that really, think its a Mira but can't find reciept to confirm which model and can't find a pic of same model on Mira website.
Many thanks for any help.
