Hi

When ever we use the shower the water goes cold for about 15 seconds then becomes warm again!

To start with the shower is fine & then sometime in the water goes cold. It’s not because someone has flushed the toilet, run a tap etc as it happen when no one else is in the house.

We have a Baxi 105e combi boiler with a Mira mixer shower connected direct to the hot & cold pipes. The boiler is in the bathroom the same as the shower.

I’ve checked the boiler water pressure & it’s fairly constant at 0.8 bar. I was wondering whether it is a faulty pressure release valve or maybe the pressure vessel?

It’s not too much of a problem at the moment but I want to fix it before it gets worse & we have no warm shower.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks Adam
