It sounds like you have a faulty thermostat or broken heater element.

SOURCE: hot water dribbles thru shower head when turned to hot

Replacing the cartridge should solve the problem, the balancing spool is stuck, replacing it will solve the problem. The valve should look like this http://www.moen.ca/shared/pdf/3170pt.pdf . I have unstuck the spools in the past, soaking it in white vinegar will help to remove build up.

SOURCE: No water coming out of shower

First you should check the screens st the ends of the hose to be sure they are not clogged. The shower head as well. Otherwise it could be the water control valve, solenoid or thermal cut off.

SOURCE: Cold water only from single-arm shower faucet in master bathroom

Yes - This is an easy (though not widely known) diy fix! Remove the cover of the faucet handle (may pop off if crystal type or use a screwdriver to remove the screws) inside there is a scald guard safety mechanism - using a flathead screwdriver, turn the guard some the left. There should be a guide so that you do not turn the water up too hot. If there is not, you may need to consult a plumber or supplier in order to adjust the hot to a moderate temperature.

Hope this helps! ;)

SOURCE: Remove and replace a hand held shower head hose in whirl pool

Hey Rick........the connectors are just large nuts at each end of the hose. If you remove one of the connectors there should be a a ring slipped around a grooved part of the hose with a plate. If you remove the clip the plate should slide off enabling you to remove the hose. Let me know if you need any more help.

Thx
Ken

Why is my Gainsborough 2000x shower not heating the water passing through?

I sounds as if the element has failed... if you isolate the power to the shower you could test the element with a multimeter..

One of my HG shower systems has increasingly lower volume. The shower head and supply hose are fine. what should I check next?

If you are using water in another part of the house most times the pressure at the bathroom shower will go low. For instance if some one in the kitchen draws water in the kitchen sink this will make the shower water even turn cooler because of low pressure. Flushing the toilet will also do the same.
Most houses are plumbed with half inch water pipe and would work a lot better if it was three quarter inch to give more water pressure.

I have a gainsborough ps1600 shower. Water pressure has dropped. Doesn't help when head is removed. Can still adjust temperature but not speed/power

If the water pressure dropped at a sudden moment, it sounds more like an issue with the water pressure leading into your shower, and not a problem with the shower its self. Try seeing if other water sources in the same area of your shower have the same low water pressure issue.

Hi, I just got my new DHC 10-2 today, the installation was easy but I have a problem. The problem is that heating is not constant. Once I mix the cold and hot water I should have an uniform temperature but...

This electric demand water heaters has one heater element. The flow switch turns it on. The thermostat cycles it on and off according to temperature. There is no medium.
You need to run the sink on hot while you take a shower. This kind of cancels out the savings on electricity.
Or get a higher flow shower head. Your screen on the shower head may be partially fouled.
Here is the brochure. It shows the flow rates for the different models.

Hi, Advice please, my shower when on hot comes normal out of the shower head but when water temperature normal it stream out of the bottom of the wall fitting, gainsborough shower 2 years old approx....

If you are taking about then neck of the shower head this is what you must do. its no need to turn the water off to the house or to the bathroom first you will need a pair of channel locks and some Teflon tape. first remove the shower head if you dont want to scar the nut on the shower head place cloth between the pliers and the fitting, once removed (very important) turn the channel locks upside down stick one side of the blue handle up in the neck of the shower and rotate to your left to loosen if you are having a leak leak there it should already be semi loose, once removed wrap the threads with the Teflon tape and re-insert making sure it is tight, then wrap the the outer end of the neck with Teflon tape and place the head back on.The reason it leaked is because the plumber who installed it did not tighten it up completly because he wanted it to look straight coming out of the wall and the additional water pressure causes it to leak wheras the hot water causes it to expand and seal
