2. Fit a proper thermostic shower mixer


The one that BES does for about £100 (inc VAT) seems to work nicely on a
combi. You have to install it sunk into the wall, and supply your own hose
and head etc. Screwfix do a surface mounting one (you can recess the supply
pipes) even cheaper including a basic cheapy head etc, which works OK on
mixed gravity hot + mains cold but I haven't tried it on a combi.
