Could someone please confirm the big “screws” on either side of the thermostatic valve are the hot/cold isolation valves?
I have these concealed mixers in all 3 showers in the house. One of them is dripping from the thermostatic valve. I can shut off the mains supply. But if there’s a problem I’d be under pressure to get it resolved, as I couldn’t turn the water back on.
So I pulled off the plate and then drilled a hole to expose what I hope are the isolation valves. I can then isolate the defective shower, remove the thermostatic valve and figure out if it’s a seal or find a replacement. Whilst cordoning off
p) that bathroom and leave the family to use the other two.
Going forward it also means I don’t need to isolate the whole house if there’s an issue with any of the shower mixers.
Thank you
