Hot & cold pressure mis-match? Mira shower whistle-blow

[horrgakx]

My Mira shower sounds like a train whistle. I emailed Mira and they say it is likely a mis-match between the hot & cold supply.

I have tried turning down the valve which is located with the water meter at the end of the drive but of course there is then just a dribble from the taps.

The house is 3yrs old fitted with a Baxi Combi 105e.

It may be worth mentioning that the garage was converted to a room at point of build so the combi boiler was relocated to a kitchen unit. I've been told by the previous occupants that there the plumbing buried in the wall in that room so the only valve I know of is that outside under the drive.

What can I do?

Call a plumber; your combi should be putting out equal pressure on hot and cold !

Exactly what Mira is it? Many of them are designed for combis. Even if yours isn't, your H & C are balanced fairly well as you have a a combi, so I'd go back to Mira.

Can't remember what the MIRA is, would have to have a look. I did explain in my email to them that I have a Combi boiler...
