The Shower is 6 years old. In the last few months there has been a delay in the water coming out after shower switched on of about 5-10 seconds. Suddenly yesterday it stopped working. Pump is on, but no water comes out. then after a little while pump switches off - I assume some sort of cutoff switch. I have tried putting the head on the floor, doing the full cold water, full hot water routine to clear air block. Even removed the hosepipe. Have switched it on and off a number of times.

hi did you run a seperate cold water supply from the storage tank to the shower pump & also a seperate hot supply from the hot water cylinder, it sounds as though the cold water is crossing into the hot service & pushing its way up to the tank as its the only way it can go, sounds as though the cold water connection to the shower is not tank fed & possibly directly off the water main.?
SOURCE: only hot water, no cold water.
The cartridges in the single handle units are prone to display this issue in hard water areas as mineral deposits such as calcium build up on the stem. The stems also have small rubber band like rings - for lack of a better term- that break apart and can clog the ports on the side where the are on. New stem should resolve the issue totally unless you have had a pipe break or other construction to the plumbing system recently. Thanks for using Fix Ya.

SOURCE: shower temperature too hot
Shower valves that have anti-scald features are renowned for this problem. Usually it is caused by not being used regularly. It can be repaired usually without replacing the valve, but you will have to dissemble it, clean, and use some plumbers grease to reassemble it. It should work fine after this. If it still does not work you will need to replace the cartridge.

Just had this same thing, on this exact faucet. If you still have the manual, it has instructions on how to rotate the valve for back to back installations where one shower has the hot/cold reversed. Our contractor got ours in backwards the first time and I had to call and have them come out and rotate the valve this morning.

To make it clear- a little water does drip through - but it is no more than a drip
I have s Aqualisa fixed shower which needs replacing, I assumed any 15mm head would fit, but to large for the Aqualisa arm thread, so what size is it?
