cartridge

My bathtub faucet is leaking. I have closed the mains and removed the only screw. This is on the cold/hot regulation handle. I see this now but I am not sure how I am supposed to extract the cartridge. Can you help please?

Hi Please can anyone advise on the tool needed to remove this shower valve? TIA Mick

Hi all, Our Mira Select shower (fitted in 2003) has decided to kick the bucket and the dial will no longer turn. After taking off the front cover is seems the plastic clip on the blue cold water side has snapped and we need a new cartridge. I’m cautiously optimistic this is what we need...

The hansgrohe mixer is 20 years old and I don't even know the model, so I know it's optimistic to expect to find the thermostatic cartridge, but I thought I would ask here on the offchance that someone could advise. I believe that the alternative is very involved work, with broken tiles etc...

What do folks think about this? I thought fixing a leaky faucet would be an easy project, but seems cartridges have fair amount of grout and are stuck.

I got this far… i think the number inside is k937a01 But Google didn’t offer much help. There’s no other screws, bolts or pieces of gum holding it on that I can find. I’ve tried pulling on it, tapping it with a hammer and asking it nicely. But this thing just won’t come off. No brand on the...

My shower (Triton Combi HP) is about 20 years old. Suddenly it has developed a fault - not enough hot water is coming through (hot water is fine in the rest of my flat). I can get the temp up using the rotary thingy, but if I go beyond the safety stop it gets colder again! Given its age, is it...

Hi guys, I am having trouble with a tap that runs even when stopped. I know it is the cold side by using the isolator valves. I have removed the lever from the tap handle, and then unscrewed the shroud which then allowed me to access the cartridge which I unscrewed from the tap. However, I...

Hi, About 30 months ago, a plumber replaced the Mira 415 cartridge to fix the shower going hot and cold. It fixed the problem but at the time he scratched his head and suggested that the pipework had been installed the wrong way around because the once the new cartridge was fitted, the cold and...

Hi all, I had a problem with a B&Q Cooke and Lewis waterfall mixer tape in the bathroom, I have removed the cartridge to replace only to find it is a 28mm (numbers on the cartridge are F28D SZIS19GM). I have also measured it and it is near as dammit 28mm in diameter. Any ideas where to...

I have had three Aqualisa showers in our house for many years and have found that there is a lack of information/advice on servicing the cartridge part number 022801 and the other similar cartridges. However, having tackled several cartridges my experience is documented below. There are three...

HI everyone, could someone please offer some guidance please on having replaced the bat mixer tap cartridges, the hot is still leaking? It is in fact worse than it was prior to cartridge change! Pushing down on the top of the cartridge actually stops the drip, but can't keep the pressure on it...

My monobloc mixer tap leaking and seems to be the cartridge. Dont know tap manufacturer but heres my picture and approx sizes I measured. Does it have model name or number?. In fact does all get replaced or end bit (if bits sold?). Pic attached Thanks

I got a call from home to say they couldn't turn off the shower.... Its a Grohe Rapido with the shower/bath diverter kit (Allure etc). Is this likely to be the cartridge needing replacing ? It doesn't look too tricky to do from the instructions, but I don't want to waste (quite a lot of) money...

I posted this question in September: https://www.diynot.com/diy/threads/diverter-valve.509393/ The answerer talked about diverter valves and cartridges. I have a few questions: 1) What the difference is between a diverter valve and a cartridge? 2) Why could the cartridge fail independently of...

Please take a look at the pics first. Mixer Swivel Taps - Time to change cartridges - They're 15 years old - need help. The top casing & main body of each cartridge (two different types) has come off (upstairs bathroom - downstairs bathroom) - but the base is stuck in each of them - I can't...

Hi All. We have a Bristan Shower in our en-suit which over the last year or so has become more and more difficult to turn off. When new, the water shut off with the handle at the 12 o'clock position but now you have to turn it, quite forcibly, to about the 2 o'clock position to get it off...

Its been dripping for a while so I'm going to start thinking of fixing it. It's about 10years old, you pull the lever right to turn it on and forwards/backwards for hot and cold. Does anyone have an idea if it could be fixed and what kind of washers or inserts it would have inside it? Thanks

Hi all Sorry if this is a daft question, but is there any chance someone could help us to identify the cartridge in the pictures attached, or point us in the right direction? I'm not well enough to replace the whole tap but can replace the cartridge, and unfortunately I can't afford £60 +...
