Thermostatic Valve Head

[Wilk19]

Following on from my previous I have now received my Bulldog Thermostatic Valve Head as pictured below and removed the previous ring however I am finding it hard to find the position for it to slot into place and turn the ring to fix into place - any advice for a extreme novice like me?

Should just fit you might need to line it up with the internal hex eg turn it a bit left or right till it seats

Am I correct to have it sat on 5 - unsure what it was set on when I removed the last one

Yes best to open it all the way eg highest setting

I’ve managed to get it back on now Shaun! I’d like to know if I removed the valve originally and it was set on 3 for example when I have placed the new head on set to 5 will my max only go to the temperature 3 in theory if that’s what it was when removed or does it reset when dialled back to 0?

No the head controls the temp so new one will not need resetting
