Hi

I have a dornbracht thermostat shower installed and the thermostat has stopped working (temperature does not adjust). I did some research and I see it could be lime scale build up.
After watching the videos of other brands I tried to dismantle the thermostat to remove and descale the cartridge. I know I need to isolate the thermostat from the mains but I can;t see how to do it.

I posted some photos of what it looks like:

There are two 10mm allen key heads that look like they could be the valves but they don't move in either direction (I didn't want to apply too much force).

I think this is the thermostat:

xTOOL Concealed thermostat module without volume control 1/2" -

Any help appreciated.

Assuming I can isolate the mains, any idea how to remove the thermostat cartridge?

thanks
Mark

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...

Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?
