    They are correct by what some of the latest Mira instructions say

    I've never noticed a difference between the manufacturer way and just turning it on, always leave it down for a few minutes until all the air is out the heat exchanger

    An electric shower runs off of the cold water main & doesn't require any buttons to be pressed or setting up

    This is completely false

    from mira ;

    The Mira Advance ATL will adapt it's settings for the individual supply
    conditions and store this information in it's main memory (during manufacture, this
    information is factory set using ideal conditions). On initial installation, the unit needs
    to "learn" about the site conditions and does so during the commissioning cycle.
    It is important that the unit is commissioned correctly otherwise an error condition
    may occur. Once set, the unit constantly updates it's memory with information about
    the site conditions to optimize the shower's performance. This is stored once the
    Start/Stop button is pressed whilst the shower is running.


    Make sure the double pole switch is off.
    5. Set the Temperature control dial to the position required for the correct
    temperature as shown in the following table.
    6. Switch on the double pole switch and check the blue Start/Stop button is lit.
    Flow
    Start/Stop
    17
    7. Within 30 seconds, push and hold down the Flow and Start/Stop buttons at
    the same time.
    8. On the long beep, release the Start/Stop button. On the short beep, release
    the Flow button
    Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day, and for once I'm inclined to believe Withnail is right. We are indeed drifting into the arena of the unwell.

    ok thanx I'll bare that in mind
    I'm only here while I wait for Corrie to start.

    You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.
  • Out of interest what Brand is the shower? Would a power shower help increase the pressure? A quicker / cheaper solution to this problem is to purchase a special low pressure. It will work better than a standard shower head as it is designed to perform better in low water pressure situations.

    Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
