My sink water is hot but my shower has cold water only. I am a very old woman and would like you to explain this mystery. I try to click it on but it does not react I do not mind not having a shower at all but will it damage the walls in time or is it better to let the cold water flow out only at times.

I do not know how to go about it and nor do I understand valves etc I have a new pipe and shower head.

Thank you Margaret.

Hi Margret and welcome to The Plumbing Page at AskMeHelpDesk.com You are responding to a 7 year old dead thread so I gave you one of your own. Please check the date before you post. Thanks,
What's the brand name of your shower valve? If I gave you directions could you do the repair yourself or do you have a friend that could help you? Back to you. Tom
