Hi,
Does anyone have any experience of the Carron Phoenix Zinia tap?
We have a leaky one - and after some searching I have managed to get a replacement cartridge (the tap hasn't been made for a few years and the cartridges are no longer made).
However, I'm unable to dismantle the tap!
The cartridge came with a plastic 'key' that you are supposed to use to unscrew the top of the tap (sort of goes inside a hexagon hole ) but the top is on so tight I've just mangled the plastic key.
I've even tried box spanners (cheap set from screwfix, so not the strongest metal) and I've even managed to mangle those too. Part of the problem is I'm not even sure which way you're supposed to unscrew the top.
If anyone has any ideas or experience of of these taps, I'd be grateful to hear it.
Thanks
Geoff
