An electric shower which keeps tripping off the hot water

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.24 PM

I have an electric shower in a log cabin for my guests to use. Initially it worked really well, over the winter, but now the hot water trips off incessantly which I am assuming is due to low water pressure. The area I live in is busy in the holiday season so I assume water pressure drop is the problem. (we have an electric shower in the house which we only use when we know no taps are running elsewhere! ) Obviously I have to go and re set the shower power unit every time it trips which is hopeless for my guests. I would really appreciate some advise please. Thank you.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Hi , it Sounds like an earth fault , you will have to get an electrician out to test the circuit and the shower unit. Kind regards Stefan Price
