Thanks for this, was at an airbnb and did not want to waste a holiday day waiting for their maintenance. In my case i twisted the knob a bit further than the give and the plug came up a bit. Used a spoon to lift the plug, adjusted it so it was longer and all was done 😁

I know this post is old but I’m hoping someone can help. Ours twists fine, but the plug never raised up very high and the bath would take forever to drain. I took the plug off/out, but now can’t reattach. Was never an issue as we only used it as a shower, but now our young daughter wants to start taking baths. As it doesn’t ‘catch’, the bath constantly drains slowly. Any advice on how to reattach would be hugely appreciated.

Thank you! Literally saved me!!

Small tip about the position of the temperature knob. The way you calibrate it is as follows: You measure the water temperature with a thermometer and you put the knob back in the corresponding position. That being said, it's not very important at all. Because people will adjust according to feeling and not according to the number on the knob.

Hi, do you give advice to help me repair my fridge door problem? Happy to post results to boost your site of course

All this for a plug!

Thank you for this. My one is very stiff to turn and the whole unit is now moving about and leaving a gap. After watching your video, I am now a lot more confident in taking it apart and cleaning/adjusting it so it works better.

Hi My temperature control is absolutely stuck in position and I can't even turn it. After watching this video, decided I will go DIY. Managed to remove the outer covering and the valve screw. The temperature control mechanism is still in there but I cannot see any Allen screw or anything else that is holding the mechanism in place. Any tips or idea to remove it out? Do I also have to remove the on-off valve on the other side? I am a beginner to this and am clueless. Any advice is appreciated.

Remind me why these bloody things are better than an ordinary rubber plug?

Hi how does the retaining clip go back on

Hi, on your video you didn't show how you got the plug out? Mine is completely stuck open - won't move in either direction. Any tips?

why do you add water to the vinegar as well, wouldn't it be stronger without?

I can't get the cover off after removing the screw . I've tried wd40 rust remover/penetrator with no luck. Don't know what else to do.

What is the bottom part is stuck and you can get into the bath to get to the unit

I would like to know the link of where I can buy that repair set pls

Hi when I've opened up the unit the wire wasn't connected inside the unit like in this video. Is ot easy enough too reconnect it can't find any videos on how too do this?

Great video! How often does one need to do this type of maintenance? I mean it probably depends on the minerals in the water, but I am curious what folks are experiencing. We are considering this type of shower faucet for our remodel, but one manufacturer says to soak it in vinegar for 24 hours (meanwhile our house water is shut off for that whole time!) Thanks.

Ive got a very simalar job to do… door cam is on the rear side to the consumer unit….its a matter of drilling through at a slight angle to hit the exact area the cam needs to be …trouble is Ive got all the feeds to unit coming from ceiling and i also have sockets and other electrical and BT outlets and data sockets below so i dont no where the cables are going up as the width of the sockets ect below are as wide as CU …

Would I need to turn off the water to just do the temperature control

Hi 👋 Don’t suppose you know this reason. Can’t find it online, My bath tub twist plug vibrates and makes a noise like there’s water going through possibly. Do I need a plumber or is it something I can fix. Really appreciate any advice 🙏

Any idea how to get the plug out when it’s stuck in and the bath is full of water? Love this video for the rest of it!

Hi, please help! how to take out the pop up drain stopper? I have the same type you're servicing on this video but the stopper cannot be taken off to clean it or pour the cleaning gel/powder.

Good video but why the California girl up speak? turning everything into a question.

How long did you leave the valve soaking beore you put it back in ?

THANK YOU !!!! Saved us a lot of money, absolutely great video! 🎉

The silicon work is immaculate probably done with elbows

I’m amazed was wondering what the large turning thing was for on the bath and couldn’t figure out how to use bath in new build! Thankyou so much can’t enjoy me evening now😂

Rather tedious listening to the number of times he said 'actually'. Actually annoying.

Wonderful tips, great job DIM TIPS!!!

Thanks my straightners have gone this way so totally not worth using right now. Will certainly try this

Good to see you back, Great tip using vinegar! My best tip is Always put the plug in any sink that you are working close to, I learnt my lesson many years ago 🥃 👍 😁

This helped me today! As others have commented this is the one that does talk aboutvtje actual task. It is a bit tricky to reach this video though. The good thing about this is that shows the mistakes too which are pretty common when person enters the world of DIY.

This actually worked!!! In a world of RUclips rubbish, this video actually helped a complete novice fix their shower mixer. Thank you 😊

Next time show in the hole as that’s why I watched the video but u didn’t show so the video was pointless for me 😞

I just poored vinegar over the temperature valve and this loosened it enough so I could rotate it by hand

I’ve just found out that when I turn the thermostat to the coldest position, my shower gives also warm water. Does it mean that it’s broken or should I calibrate the knop? We installed the bar just as it was from the factory. Thank you

Great video. Did you have to close the water source to remove the mixer or it's not needed per se ?

not a DIY job , you need to state that more clearly! also checking everything dead with a proper tester on video would be better to show

Thankyou. Just fixed ours. Saved time and money

I've got a leak from the neck unscrewed in the beginning any idea on this please? It's fully tightened and leaks when shower isnl turned on

Thanks for showing mate. This helped a lot. We have a very similar one which I managed to get to work again after months of barely being able to turn the temperature up or down.

So I followed up until I had to unscrew everything. Now can figure out how to get that black thing out :(

I have a very similar unit in my bathroom and I have an extra question. You mentioned in the beginning of the video that the water pressure knob was loose - mine is acting a bit similar + it doesn't always completely shut off the water and I have to use a bit more force to turn it all the way into the closed position than I actually feel comfortable to do (I'm afraid that I'll break it off). Does it generally require just a clean from the limescale build-up, or is there some kind of a gasket inside that may require a replacement too? What's your opinion on this?

My twister doesn't have any holes or screws in it. Any ideas on how I can remove it? The bath drain is stuck and not opening

How am I supposed to get the wiring from the chime, to the fuse box. I don't want to tear up a bunch of plasterboard... My chime is wired, but think it's running off an existing ring, such as the ground floor plugs or lights maybe.

Are you an electrician? That DB is horrible.

Do put the tape on top of the washer?

It's rusted out because it's probably been been cemented in all the way down. They normally advise to use 50% of the depth using gravel 30mm size and the remaining depth using postcrete. This way the water can drain away and the bollard will not retain the water. I've had mine installed for 2 years and still looks good as day 1.

wonderful. The cheap wickes version isnt adjustable but "looks" the same
