All new shower valves in the us come with an anti-scald setting. This is a piece in the valve that is set when it is installed that limits the range of temperature. On some models you can remove this little device and go from cold to very hot just like the good old days. To find it, remove the handle and cover. You will see something that has little gear teeth on it. It may just slide right off and you can put the cover and handle back on.
