What manufacture/model is this mixer shower??

[James]

Hi everyone, this is my first post here on this forum and I'm hoping one of you good fella's can help me with a problem I've got. My father inlaw has a mixer shower which is only giving out cold water however I have hot water at all of the other outlets. From the picture does anyone know what make or model this shower is?? Thanks people

Could be a very old Mira?

Could be an aqualisa looks a bit like an version of an aqualisa dream , your best bet is to get in touch with shower doctor email them a pic and they'll tell you

As Irish says, send a pickie to showerdoc. If anyone can help you, they can.

Looks to me like a old Beaumont shower with the cartridge replaced.

Hi people, I ended up changing the shower to an exposed triton thermostatic mixer. When I had both pipes disconnected and opened the valves the flow through the hot was really poor compared to the cold, the other hot taps bring the boiler in except for the shower. In order to have a shower they have to run a hot tap first then run the shower and turn the tap off. It's a combi boiler, biasi prisma 24 se and he doesn't have the money to replace it, could it be the diaghram washer in the diverter valve or a blocked dhw heat exchanger??? Any advice is much appreciated guys

I would say that if the other taps are working in the house and the only problem is with the shower, then you have a problem with the shower mixer.
Mixer taps are prone to having cold water flow back through the hot water system, especially if there is a greater pressure on the cold water supply.
This may be the reason that you are not getting hot water at the shower
