Power shower problems

    We have a Mira Elite power shower in our en suite. It's approx 5 years old, maybe slightly older.

    Recently when turned on it runs for maybe 2 minutes then starts to sound as if it's running out of power - like an engine running out of petrol.

    Any ideas / advice?

    Thanks in advance.

    The Mira Elite ST is an electric shower rather than a power shower.

    Either the brushes need replacing or the pump is failing. The brushes on that shower are good for 1000 hours of showering so it must get a lot of use.

    It's worth replacing the brushes if that's all it is but Mira parts are so expensive that it's not worth replacing the motor. A motor will set you back €200/€220 supplied & fitted. You'll get a new shower supplied & fitted for a little more than extra €100
