Can anyone recommend a replacement that may have some better insulation around the part that has water in it. I dont live in the house full time, the heat is on, and all is fine with attic tank etc, its just that the shower was installed on the back wall (facing north) and it just got too cold. any suggestions or ideas apprectiated.

This happened to a few T90S. There is no recs i am afraid bar turning of the water and emptying the shower.

Just an unfortunate event that hope does not again happen in my life time,
