It might not be the shower at fault.
What is the make & model of the shower?

If it's a pumped electric then it is most likely a shower fault. If it's a mains fed shower then the shower might be OK and the mains pressure at fault

15 years is great going....
Could be the element, could be burnt out.....

Replace like for like if she was happy with it previous, means simple swap too.... Obviously if it needs changing.

Thanks for the replies.

I presume it would be an electrician that would do this replacement ?
