The pipe connecting the temperature controller to the shower head and water in it.
While you change the temperature controller, you change the water temperature flow passing through it, not the water already passed, namely, in the pipe. Many people don’t realize this and use the pipe eater’s temperature to decide how much to turn the controller, the result is often overshooting the controller.
