10 Reasons Why the Water in the Shower is Cold

• There are many explanations and reasons that
  we have encountered in our plumbing experience
  for a shower turning suddenly cold. These range
  from simple issues to more complex plumbing
  problems, all of which can be inspected and
  skillfully repaired by a professional plumber. A
  trained plumber will be able to detect the
  underlying issues and fix them to restore your
  perfect temperature water. Here are some possible
  reasons

Hot Water System Issues

• A hot water system in a household is a machine
  that routinely takes on a huge workload and it
  would hardly be a surprise to find out that it
  has some issues that are causing the cold-water
  situation. First and foremost, get your hot water
  system inspected by a hot water plumber to assess
  if everything is working as it should. The
  problem may be with temperature control so make
  sure the hot water system temperature is set
  correctly. A malfunctioning thermostat can be a
  reason for inaccurate water temperatures.
• A plumber can inspect your hot water system to
  check if one of the elements is burned out
  (electric hot water system) or if there is any
  faulty component that needs repairing.

• Hot water systems are complex machines that
  require several components to work efficiently
  and effectively. With a single malfunctioning
  component, a hot water system wont work and give
  you the hot water you need. Any build-up of
  debris, dirt or rust could lead to loss of heat.
• A leaking hot water system is another major
  reason you are not receiving enough hot water.
  Leaking is a common problem with hot water
  systems and a trained hot water plumber can fix
  the issue for you restoring your hot water
  supply. Maintaining your hot water unit and
  getting it serviced regularly will keep such
  issues at bay.
• If your hot water system is ageing then you must
  consider a new unit to keep enjoying hot water
  without any interruptions or issues.
• If your hot water demand is too high and your hot
  water system is unable to cope up with the supply
  its time to consider getting a larger capacity
  heater or using a thankless model.

• Other reasons for the shower going suddenly cold
  could be
• Faulty taps

  lack of hot water coming from your shower and get
  it fixed in time. We at Adelaide Emergency
