Default Flow rate for a shower with a pump

Hi all, can you answer this I hope simple question - I have a pre-installed
shower with a pump and shower bar.The shower when running loses presure after
about 45 seconds and becomes a trickle. The pipe work is as follows 15mm
flexi house to short 15mm copper then to a 22mm 1m pipe and finally to a 15mm
going to the shower bar. Pump has now been changed and shower bar has now been
replaced - any ideas??

Yes, something is very wrong.

If you could explain a bit more clearly, we might be able to help.

Did changing the pump and bar make any difference?

Model of shower pump, what sort of shower bar? Where do the hot and cold
supplies come from.
