Air may be trapped in the system. Please follow these steps to remove any trapped air:

  • Remove the showerhead - Please read our helpful guide on How to remove a showerhead.
  • Drop the shower hose down into the bath or shower tray and run on full cold for a minute or two
  • Slowly increase the temperature to the hottest setting and run on full hot for up to five minutes


This should remove any air trapped in your pipework. You can now reattach the showerhead and try running again as normal.

Please read our helpful guide on How to remove a showerhead.

Replace the showerhead and try running again as normal.


If this does not resolve the issue:

  • Try removing the showerhead from the shower hose (unscrews like a bottle top)
  • Drop the shower hose down into bath or shower tray and run the shower
  • If the shower runs correctly without the showerhead it indicates that the showerhead is blocked


Poor shower performance can be avoided by regular cleaning of the showerhead. Please read our helpful guides here on How to remove a showerhead and How to clean your showerhead from limescale.


If this has still not resolved the issue:

  • Unscrew the shower hose and run water through (over your water catchment area, i.e. shower cubicle or your bath. Read our helpful guide on, How to remove a shower hose if you need

If this has not resolved the issue:

This shower contains filters which we would recommend being checked by a qualified tradesperson.

For the tradesperson: Check the filters are clean and check valves are not sticking.
