When we use our Mira sport shower the water goes red hot, and then freezing cold, it doesnt sit at a desired temperature. Anyone had experience of this, and what the solution is to have a peaceful shower?

The things to check first are.

1 That the main valve coming into your house is fully open.

2 Then check that the valve on the line to the shower is fully open.

If these valves are not fully open then there may not be enough water
getting to your shower to cool it properly the overheat safety device will turn
the power off until it cools Then it all starts again

Make sure that the shower head is clean and clear, that the hose isn’t kinked (this can happen just behind the hand set where it is difficult to see) also check the inside of the hose although it can look OK on the outside it could have collapsed internally

I have had a Mira Sport shower for over a year without this problem. The shower MUST be fed from the cold water pipe not the hot water pipe. If it is fed by the cold water supply then I am 100% confident that your shower unit is faulty and should be returned to the shop/manufacturer where you bought it
