What is the life of a shower faucet stem?
What words are more discriptive than, "What is the life of a shower faucet stem?"? A qualified service person replaced the hot water shower valve stem in May of this year. This a.m. I was unable to turn the water off. When I used a towel for a better grip, I was finally successful. Now, I am afraid to turn the hot water back on for fear it will react in the same manner. I fear calling my landlord, as he is grouchy, and seemingly blames me for the problem. If anyone can give me a helpful suggestion, I would greatly appreciate the input. Thank you for allowing me this forum.
