Imperial Mixer shower

[Redhotferrari]

Hi Guys,

Imperial mixer shower, about three years old, worked fine until about three months ago, but recently has started to run luke warm at best, sometimes cold.

Dont think its a pressure balance problem as worked fine before!

The hot feed pipe is nice and hot up to the valve, so it seems like the hot is getting stopped somehow, any suggestions?

Dirt in supply or cartridge, or faulty cartridge.

Thanks, are these easy to take apart and clean?

It depends. Rocket science is easy - you light the back end and run away...
