    No they can't be adjusted. Sorry.
    Maybe try a pressure reducing valve. You would need 2 of them and there not that cheap.

    cant read the plate but it is at least a 3 bar pump: as noted a pair of good pressure reducing valves are not cheap

    u can fit a flow reducer in the handset of most showers and then on the taps if u can fit the aeration thingies it reduces the whack.

    How much are these pressure reducing valves amd where do they go or get fitted exactly??

    Also,would they reduce the pressure/bar of the pump by much??

    Oh and thanks for the help/advice.:)

    They range in price but could be €50 and up for one. They would go on the hot and cold outlet pipe's from the pump, you would also need two pressure gauges after the valves in order to set them correctly when your shower is running.
