Hi All
The previous owner of my house has converted the garage to a guestroom with en-suite shower room about 7 years ago. The builder who is now refitting the main family bathroom has found out that the cistern in the guestroom bathroom is has been connected to hot water supply.
The simplest way to remedy this problem is to swap the cold and hot water feed going from main bathroom to the guestroom. However the builder is not sure if the shower is thermostatic and if it's functioning will be affected. The shower is a single lever mixer type built inside the wall. The other option would be to remove the plasterboard from wall to connect cistern to cold water feed instead.
The question is if the shower hot and cold water supply can be swapped. Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
