The fittings below are for a mixer bar attached to a self contained shower. i.e not a wall. The attaching screws have snapped. I could get two new brackets, dismantle that existing one and start again or I could try and re attach via those screws, removing the broken ones from the plate and wall...
Hi all,
Appreciate any help here. I called Mira who advise that they can't support this shower any longer.
The shower works intermittently. Sometimes the light on the control unit does not light up, and will not switch the shower on. This can be for 24 hours, or can be 1 week.
This is the shower...
Hello. My mixer shower (non-electric) recently started running luke warm. I know this can happen at this time of year over winter but I've been in the property over 10 years and it's never been this bad before. The combi boiler was checked and is ok. The hot water from taps is uneffected and...
Pipes for thermostat shower have been fitted at different heights. Any way of rectifying without ripping all tiles. So for clarity 15mm pipes sunk into wall behind bath. Walls have fresh tiles. Have realised as about to fit shower these pipes one is set higher than the other. If you fit a...
Hello everyone. New to the forum and looking for assistance / advice.
I live in a rented house with a not very co-operative landlord. I have just discovered that my bath overflow drain pipe is not connected as the flexible drain tube looks like it has been cut off at some point. After studying...
Dear all,
I have this item and seem to not be able to lock it completely in from above and below no matter how many times i tried. Yet when i test it outside the bath it joins fine. But either the bath is bent or something but it won't lock down.
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
I live in an apartment with a cold water tank. The cold water tank feeds the cold water tap in the sink and the bath. Recently, I refurbished my bathroom, and according to the plumber who fitted the new taps, high-pressure taps were fitted. Consequently, the water from taps is of a low volume...
Please help me obtain a copy of the user manual for this bath and shower mixer, pictured below.
I am particularly concerned about how to re-regulate the bath filler so it fills the bath to the desired level.
Many thanks!
Hello everyone,
I have a Grundfos SoloLift2 WC1 on a toilet and since a few months the impeller keeps getting stuck.
I was quite happy to unblock it myself using the service shaft above the motor and a long screwdriver, but it keeps happening roughly once every month.
When stuck, it makes a...

I Think I want a Thermostatic shower valve. Can these be added/installed to an existing shower?
Hi guys. I'm trying to identify a toilet model before ordering a seat for a customer. I went to what used to be a Roca stockist (they no longer are) and one of the guys there reckoned it might be "The Gap". I went to the new stockist and the guy there disagreed it was "The Gap" and that he'd...
Please can someone advise how to fix this shower that leaks?
I guess I need to replace the washers inside the taps. Is it the blue or red one? My local DIY place didn't have the washer last time I attempted this.
The cold tap is the culprit, a bit soft to tighten and leaks unless really tight...
When I turn on the shower or bath, initially the pump runs (quite loudly) and only a trickle comes out. I have to alternate turning on the bath and shower before I get a reasonable flow. Then once it is running, if the water is at maximum temperature on the mixer it flows smoothly, but as soon...
Hello, as the title, the cistern keeps filling.
The fill valve is passing, think it’s a viva skylo bottom entry with a plastic shank but there’s not markings or identification on it. Just wondering if anyone knows what type it is?
I’d rather just replace the diaphragm inside if it’s one that’s...

The base has 2 wheels in the corner.
