New thermostatic shower not as powerful?
Discussion
Hello.
Old shower (Believe it was a thermostatic one - it only had one knob for temperature - flow was always set to 100%) developed a leak, and plumber came and said it needed to be replaced.
Replaced it with a Cooke and Lewis one from Screwfix, ('Miuria' as I recall) that has both a temp knob and a flow knob.
2 days pass since it was installed (Caulk going off) and noticed it does not seem as powerful. Is there a constrictor on some of these showers?
Disappointing as it used to be a really powerful shower.
How should i take this forward please?
THanks for any help?

Could be a number of contributing factors from filters or flow regulators to simply being the fact it's not your old shower and therefore different in its design. If it came with a new head, it could just be the size and amount of holes in it.
I doubt your plumber will want to return for free, so unless there's a significant difference, I'd love with it.
