    Cheers for that.

    Heating it for an hour definitely works and is certainly enough for a shower. That's what the missus has been doing now the past 2 weeks where as I can just about get away with a really really quick shower with the 30 minutes!

    So when you say I need the wiring checked what exactly needs checking or what do I need to ask an electrician to do?

    Check the resistance of each element first, they should each be ~~ 18/19 ohms, then check the wiring set up and if incorrect get him to wire it properly so that either the sink or bath can be selected when wired through the timer.

    OK, might need someone more skilled than me for that!
    So is the concensus that this is an electric problem as opposed to a plumbing issue?

    Sounds like it. I think we've ruled out hot water going elsewhere and the shower output hasn't changed
