What kind of shower faucet is it that you are having problems with.
It is a Triton Opal shower which has three settings but keeps turning to the cold setting when I turn it on .Would be grateful for your help please , do you think I need a new shower or is it repairable .
Kind Regards

Many of these have an antiscauld feature. It actually prevents it from going too hot by mixing the hot with the cold usually with a thermostatic device. Not unlike the termostat in your car.
I have a feeling that is defective. It can usually be replaced when it is.
However I've never seen that brand before, hopefully someone else has and can give some more specific info. Until then I will try to look something up when I have some time and get back with you.

Could that be what you are referring to.Quote:
Phased shutdown
In use, when the stop button is pressed, power is switched off to the elements. Water will continue to flow for a few seconds, flushing out any remaining hot water. This makes sure the next immediate user will not receive a slug of hot water if standing under the showerhead when starting the shower
Thanks Smoothy I appreciate your help so much .
Thanks for your info but it happens when I first turn the shower on.I press the hot setting but it immediately turns back to the cold setting .
