Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding the flow and temperature on a thermostatic mixer shower. The water set from the combi boiler is hot in the kitchen, the bath hot water tap is quite warm and when I reduce the flow by turning the tap half way the water gets hotter.
My shower has been warm so I decided to reduce the flow to see what happens ( I always have the flow fully turned) and the water became hotter and I still have good enough water pressure. My question is, why does the water get hotter when the water flow is reduced and is it okay to keep on using the shower with half flow water pressure rather than full flow?
Any information would be appreciated thanks.
