Shower Thermostat valve cartridge

Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 3.32 PM

I think that lime scale has jammed the temperature control of my shower and need to replace the valve cartridge. There is no branding to indicate what to replace it with. Will I need to change the whole unit to correspond with the valve cartridge or can these be replaced like for like?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

If an item that need replacing that cannot be identified by manufacturer and / or model number, then a similar replacement cross referenced would be sufficient if compatible. However, old worn components that require replacing are better upgraded with a new installation as warranty and operational integrity will most certainly be compromised.
