    Dripping showerhead
    We have a slow drip from the showerhead itself, not its connection to the pipe. It is the type that has what I think is called a pressure regulator valve, that prevents a change in water temperature when another faucet in the house is turned on while shower is running. I presume it needs a washer at the handle but don't know how to go about getting to it and changing it.
