Shower Not Working

[granny grump]

We have a Mira Sport shower. I had a shower this morning and everything was fine. When granddad G came to have his shower the light for Low Flow came on and the shower wouldn't work.

Nothing wrong with any other water works in the house toilets flushing ok and downstairs shower working and radiators alright - Any ideas what could be wrong ?

They seem to be quite complicated when it comes to diagnosing faults.
We have a new Mira ATL shower. The old one went crazy, making all kinds of odd noises , showing 'low flow' then shutting down.
The Shower Doctor said they would look at it for about £70 plus parts plus vat which would cover the first hour of labour. The only guarantee they could give was that we'd have to pay the call out fee for possibly no result.
A heating engineer friend got us a new one wholesale and fitted it free.
Sorry I can't be of more help.

I had the same problem with our Mira ATL shower. I took the cover off (after switching off at the mains) and found a black button on top of a valve. When I pressed it down, it flushed the shower through with cold water, which cured the problem. I don't know if the Sport has something similar?

Possibly the filter on the water inlet is blocked.

Try their Customer Support. One of the most helpful I've ever come across.........

A couple of years we had the same problem with an electric shower, water but no heat.

I was halfway through taking it off the wall when I thought to check our water pressure. Sure enough the only problem was not enough water pressure to switch the heating element on. A short time later is was as good as new.
