Pica Shower - Mixer too tight to close
Reply with quote Thanks

Hi,

I have a Pica shower and the mixer is getting harder and harder to close off. Its now taking two hands and a bit of strength to turn off.

It has a large dial at the back for pressure and a small dial at the front for temperature.

What can I do to slacken it?


Thanks.

Ta Bahco,

But can't find any info on a 'Pica' shower on this site, much less anything to tell me how to lubricate or loosener the mixer.

Anything else, much appreciated. Can't even find much 'Pica' shower info on Google.

Ta.
