The one about the Shower

The shower in our guest house is fully the second most complicated shower I've ever experienced in my entire life (Let's just say the first could be transformed into a sauna and had 8 heads).

This is how the typical morning shower goes: Turn the water on. Barely a trickle. Suddenly, it shoots full force to the wall. It is cold, and remains cold for 5 minutes. Go downstairs. Turn on the power and heat for the water. Come back upstairs. Wait 3 minutes.

Water gets hot. Get in. Trickle again. Get close to the shower head. Water full in the face. Etc.

The pressure and temperature of the water seem completely unrelated, as far as I can tell.

Confusing!
