    Will a thermostatic shower mixer work with two hot supplies?

    I won't go into the specifics here because it'd be far too long, but in a system I'm building I have two hot supplies - one between 25C and 35C, and one between 45C and 70C. (In short, I have two heat sources that perform differently under different conditions). I want an output temperature of...

    Buzz from thermostatic mixer tap

    Hi, just want to make sure I'm going down the right route with this. I've just installed a thermostatic mixer tap on my bath. When I tried it for the first time it buzzed (a fairly low buzz) After a bit of research I found this could be caused by unequal pressure between HW and CW. I tested the...

    Thermostatic Head Stuck

    Hi, I've got a Drayton Thermostatic Head that is totally stuck on 0, i.e. can't twist it round. I've taken it off the radiator and it still won't twist at all, it's almost like it's locked somehow. Is there an easy way to free it? Thanks in advance.

    Mira Vigour thermostatic shower needs new brushes.

    Hi. Our Mira Vigour thermostatic shower is starting to make a whining noise. It sounds very familiar! Eight years ago I ignored it and ended up having to replace the entire unit. Older and wiser (courtesy of the internet) I realise (now) that it needs new brushes; I've had the cover off and can...

Currently in the process of changing an electric shower into a thermostatic mixer shower, its a bit of a long story with the builder but the existing shower area was basically bodged in to fit and tiled over concealing a few of the builders hacks into the plasterboard walls and getting...
