Yes. You have poor water pressure. Its the same common problem that occurs with the T80's

Click on the techanical info on this page it describes it in detail


I have no real experience in these showers however as the problem is the same as the T80 i imagine it can be cured like the t80. The solution on the t80 is to disconnect the shower from the mains and using a single impeller pump like the T450i from triton or a cheap version you can pump water from the attic tank.

However if it were me i would cut my losses and use a T90 or a mira elite. However if this shower is being installed in an attic conversion ie. Level or above the storage tank then you will have to use the single impeller pump.

Hope this helps...
