Immersion thermostat gone? Water very hot

    Hi all, I have separate hot /cold water taps in both bathrooms so this is where the issue is most noticeable (not been able to mix in cold water) Hot water has become much hotter than usual, at the stage now where steam is coming off the water coming out of tap after immersion has been on. Had a quick Google, does this mean thermostat is gone on immersion? House is about 6 years old. Is it a big job to rectify?

    Thermostat, and it can be changed by a good electrician.
