    Replace or Correct Shower valve?
    I suspect that I have a have a shower valve problem.

    When I turn on the shower in the master bath I get full volume of water when the shower handle is turned for cold water. When I turn the handle for hot water the volume of water decrease substantially and the water is warm never hot. I do get good hot water from other bathroom and kitchen sinks.

    Am I looking at a shower valve that is incorrectly seated or am I looking at a bigger problem.

    Thanks,

    Boyd

    Please tell us the brand name of the valve. Has it got a Temp Control or anti-skald installed? Can you give us a model number? Details! We need lottsa details. Regards, Tom
