Hi,

I have a Trevi Therm without a pump in the house that I am renting.

Unfortunately, the flow from the shower is very poor and the maximum temperature is not very hot. We tested it against the bath mixer tap at a reasonably hot temperature and the bath filled up a bucket at about twice the rate of the shower, so it shouldn't be an issue of water pressure.

Any ideas of how to improve it? Can you alter the flow coming into the shower?

Thank you.

First and easiest check is to make sure hose (if fitted) and showerhead are clear and not restricting flow. It would be good to know the distance between the shower head and the base of the cold water tank.
If this is ok then there are 2 filters in the temp cartridge which may require cleaning.
