White jelly substance blocking hot water pipe

Hi, I'm hoping someone knows what this is.
A new shower was fitted last week. Great water flow for a few days then the hot dropped to barely nothing. We took the mixer bar off and the filter was full (hot feed only) of this white/see through jelly substance. The substance isn't dirty, doesn't smell of anything. Cleared it away and refitted only for it to do the same thing a week later.
The hot water comes from an unvented cylinder that is seemingly working fine. The rest of the house water is fine.
I've attached a pic of the mixer bar. Its driving me mad, I can't remove the shower every week to clean the filters!
Thank you to anyone that has a look.
