help pls....no hot water!!!

Help pls, i think i've got a problem with the boiler.....it's called OSO hotwater. i've recently rented a flat and when i want to take a shower, the water is hot for 3 min. and then gets cold. I've read the manual 10 times, but i can't figure what can it be.....i looked on the internet as well but it's the same manual....and i'm tired of cold showers.....plus i can't get hold of the landlord.
Any help would be great.....thanx in advance

    hi everyone, the landlord is liable but i couldn't get hold of him, but i phoned the company he bought the boiler from and they said there's been problems with that type of boiler in the area where i live, so they will send me an immersion heater through the post and i just have to call a plumber to fit it in. I called the landlord as well and he said he will call the plumber as soon as i get the piece. Hopefully it won't take too long, i'm freezing cold from all those cold showers :cry:
