    Loss of pressure with electric shower (Triton T100si)
    Hi
    I have a Triton T100si electric shower, recently I have had low pressure problems. Now I have no water actually running from my shower and the low pressure light just goes red. The taps in my bathroom and kitchen all run as normal. The shower was installed by the previous owner and I had everything checked by an electrician when I moved in. Do you think this is just wear and tear things get old etc or something that can be fixed by an electrician?
    Many thanks
    Jinny

    Hi Jinny,

    The inlet ports of the shower valve will have to be checked and cleared for any trash build up. Good luck, Tom

    After many years of my shower not working... in fact shortly after I installed it... I have finally got around to fixing it. As I thought all along, it was purely a clogged filter. Must have got some debris in it from the new pipework I connected it to.

    Now I can throw away the stupid tap connector shower thingey.

    It was easy work, but you have to isolate the power and water, remove the cover and take out the little plastic box thing, (no technical jargon here) that connects to the feed pipe.

    You'll need to remove the electrical connectors too!

    Then flush it out, you won't be able to blow through it because the electric solenoid (?) will be shut of and will stop the water flushing through.

    Connect it all back up and hey presto, hot water!
