Shower unit leaking

[Mark Sully]

Hi all,

we have an aqualisa shower. When you turn it on, water streams out of the actual unit. If you remove the shower head, it stops. Just purchased a new, larger shower head, but it’s made no difference.
Any ideas please? Thank you

Check the shower hose for kinks/twists.

Thanks Chris, even though the hose works fine without the head?

What model of shower? Some have a relief valve that pops when it overheats/over pressurises.

Could be a blocked head then, I’d say something is restricted somewhere causing a buildup of pressure.

Yes, thanks all. I think I need to replace the prd
