    Issues with electric shower

    Hi I have recently purchased a new build house . The standing shower cubicle has an electric shower which doesn't run well. For starters the water pressure isn't great and the hot water doesn't stay hot. Every now and then I get a sudden burst of ice cold water. Not sure if it is as issue with the shower or the water pressure. Would it be better to switch to a mixer shower? If so what would be an approximate cost to do so? Also the house has a ground source heat pump and no boiler.
