Disconnect the hose at the shower head and run it, see if the water coming out is scalding.

The SI is a pumped shower so can you hear the pump running?, check level in water tank, shut cold water supply to shower; remove and clean shower filter; replace; restore water supply. If you have hard water the heating can may be scaled up and blocked with limescale.
This seems to be posting twice for some reason or other.

Sounds like it might be a dodgy thermostat
