Good Morning / Afternoon..
Apologies as this is probably a very straightforward request for help..alas my DIY knowledge lacks in the world of plumbing.
I've got a mixer shower which seems to have a faulty valve inside as it's stuck on cold. We only noticed once we had a new Baxi Duo-Tec 40 40kW Combi Boiler installed. The boiler engineer at the time, to resolve the issue with the shower swapped the cold / hot feeds so it's now stuck open on hot.
If I was to purchase a new mixer and install this myself, would I turn off the main stop tap to the house, then leave the taps open till the Combi boiler has emptied? Do I need to turn the Combi off at the mains?
Any help is much appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Paul
