I have read the previous posted problems that the shower is not putting out hot water. I have taken the handle off and tried to adjust the hot water flow. It still is only warm and not hot. The other facuets are fine and it is just the shower that is not. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the forums! You say you "tried" to adjust the heat. Were you successful in moving the geared disk one way or the other? Does your handle move further to the hot side than before? If not, we need to know the brand and model number so we can help further.

If other faucets are OK, you have not hit the correct setting on the shower faucet. Or.....the hot side shutoff valve is not fully open, or there is a partial blockage on the hot side.
