Mira 415 Shower Leeking

[alextait]

Hello there... My shower is constantly dripping even when turned fully off.

Does anyone know how I could fix this ?

thanks

Purchase a cartridge for it, instead of replacing the whole shower. Plumbcentre or Grahams should be able to get you one, or look online for one

thanks!

If youaren't sure about the washer spares, the whole cartridge assembly only costs 40 quid. You takes your pick and makes your choice

thanks for your help guys !

is it easy to use the repair kit ?

 

[alextait]

think I am going to go for the safe option of getting the cartridge.

Do you know if i need a black or grey cartridges... not sure why there are different colours ?

thanks

 

[seco services]

are you getting temp problems with the shower then ?

 

[alextait]

not temperature problems... It's just leeking drips when turned off ?

thanks!

 

[seco services]

then why do you want to buy a cartridge. that only controls the temp.

 

[alextait]

not sure!! just what was sugested!

just trying to find the easiest way to stop the leek!

perhaps its one of the O rings that needs replacing

.....

 

[seco services]

it is the spindle o rings. thats why you buy a service kit and change them all while its apart.

 

[alextait]

will give it a go!
