Water too hot during Navy shower
When taking Navy showers I click the little button to stop water flow to wash but when I turn it back on via the water flow button the water is extremely hot when it comes out for about 15-20 seconds ...

Thanks as usual everyone for your responses. Always nice to get seasoned food for thought so to speak.
I don't think my water heater is adjustable. Just checked. I wish it were that easy!
So to those of you who "upgraded" to the oxygenic style shower head. The product claims to dribble water while water is restricted thus avoiding a hot or cold blast of water when one turns the flow restrictor off during a Navy shower. Is this reality? If so, this seems to solve my issue for about $30 if it works as advertised.
Yes, the oxygenic shower head works as advertised with the dribble and does solve the issue. If you are trying to be ultra conservative with water use, you could argue it wastes some water that way. But, not much. And its uses less to begin with.
Even better, though, is it gives the feeling of greater flow and pressure even while using less water. One of the best (and cheapest!)upgrades we made.
If you are trying to conserve water, then you can always use a bucket underneath on the floor of the shower to collect the dribbling water...If you are doing a navy shower, then you might collect a large cup full of water, if that.
