Hello

My sister had water coming out of the bottom of her old triton brazillia electric shower.I isolated the power and removed cover and examined in side.The leak comes from a clear plastic tube which comes from a very small copper tank.I believe this to be a over flow tube.I suspect the shower is just knackered,but would be grateful for any advise on what be be going wrong.


Thank You

I know nothing about these things but it has been covered before, and one of the others will enlighten you later.

It may be scale or pressure, the brain cell isn't working.
