Any ideas? I have 3 bar of pressure in the house water supply, with the shower on the cold setting and on number 1 the water shoots out of the hose fine and dandy (it can reach the otherside of the room) but the second you turn the power to the high setting or the economy setting and go through the range of numbers from 1 to 10 the pressure coming from the hose end drops massively to a trickle at setting 10 (when lower than the unit it's self so no gravity effect to worry about). I have checked the filter on the solenoid which was all clean. when switching on the shower there is a thud as if something is releasing.
I have searched high and low trying to find an answer to this question but as of yet have found none and was hoping any of you might have an idea as to what is going on. i am suspecting the solenoid or the stabaliser units but would like a little more advice before i replace them off pat.
Any help or avenues i can have a look down would be greatly apprectiated.
i think i may have come across wrong but the trickle isn't even worth showering under.. the best flow rate i can describe it as is like a leaking tap. you might get wet but only if you move about under the shower head ish.

it will do that thats how an electric shower works the faster the flow over the elements the colder it is.
so 1 will be powerful but cold
10 will be poor flow but hot.
