    Our Mira electric shower had a similar problem. Dirt in the filter caused the problem. It was easy to get to and clean. No problems since.
    Could be a different problem for you though.

    Start by cleaning the head and take it from there.

    Put it in the kettle when you use your limescale remover and clean it thoroughly afterwards with a small brush.

    Forget about it... Its a mains fed shower. 99% sure its a mains problem. ie your mains pressure is too low. either 1. get a mira elite and tank feed it or 2. Get a single impeller booster pump like the triton T450i and tank feed it.
