Do not forget that the shower stall has to work in extreme conditions: high humidity, sudden temperature changes, mechanical pressure, constant change of modes, poorly filtered water.
In order for the parts of the hydrobox to function properly, and repairs to be a rare occurrence, it is necessary to carry out preventive cleaning, ventilate the room more often and monitor the quality of the water.
What most often breaks down in mixers operated with shower stalls? Our article is devoted to typical malfunctions of these plumbing fixtures and their elimination. It does not claim to be complete: our task is to acquaint the reader with only the most typical problems of common constructions.
Integrated shower mixer.
Let's start with a small lyrical digression.
The device of a mixer for a shower cabin is determined primarily by what kind of cabin it is:
Closed boxes are equipped with pre-installed plumbing fixtures, which are usually attached to the rear panel of the cab.
An important point: in this case, replacing the mixer in the shower stall requires free access to its back wall. Accordingly, the connection to the sewer must be movable (for example, made with a corrugated hose) or easily disassembled.
Open wall cubicles allow the use of conventional wall-mounted consumer mixers. Accordingly, the list of typical problems in this case will be the same as for any other device with a shower.
Their device is as unified as possible: an ordinary cartridge with ceramic plates is responsible for adjusting the water pressure - the same as in any other single-lever mixer. The second ceramic cartridge is responsible for switching the shower mode.
Appearance of the assembled mixer.
Excluding force majeure such as mechanical damage to the mixer body, malfunctions of these products are reduced to the failure of one of the cartridges.
Seven troubles - one answer: in all these cases, repairing a shower stall - a mixer or a shower mode switch, quite predictably comes down to replacing the cartridge.
How to disassemble a shower stall faucet for this operation:
We close the valves at the entrance to the apartment or house.
Remove the plastic plug on the handle of the mixer or switch.
Remove the handle.
The photo shows the mixer with the handles removed.
We unscrew the decorative nut (exclusively with our own hands, without using tools, so as not to deform it and not damage the chrome coating).
We unscrew the nut securing the cartridge.
We change it to a new one and assemble the structure in the reverse order.
There is a little subtlety here: if you do not know absolutely exactly which cartridges are installed in your booth, it is better to go to the store for a replacement, taking with you the defective sample.
Mixer cartridges can be of different diameters (35 or 40 millimeters).
Products for mode switching can have from 2 to 5 positions and differ in stem length.
Agree, it would be inconsistent to describe how to repair the product and not mention the reasons for its failure.
And the reasons, in fact, are only two:
Water quality ... Dross or sand trapped in the groove of the plates when trying to close them does not allow this. The use of force causes the ceramic plates to chip off; as an option, the plastic clips that hold them in the working position break.Note! The problem is completely solved by installing a pair of coarse filters at the entrance to the apartment, immediately after the valves. The price of one filter is 120-200 rubles.
The filter will retain suspended solids carried by the water.
Applying significant force to the handle ... Not only in cases where the water does not turn off or the shower mode does not switch: the habit of users to close the water with a sharp blow on the handle sent thousands and thousands of cartridges to Valhalla. As a rule, the notorious plastic clips or rods under the handle break in them.How to remove the mixer from the shower for a complete replacement?
It is usually fixed on the back panel with wide decorative plates that are pressed down with the same nuts that secure the cartridges. Accordingly, the disassembly algorithm is the same as in the previous case; the disassembled mixer is removed from the holes on the back of the booth.
Less often, the linings have their own thread; in this case, they are simply unscrewed.
Important: it is also better to select a new mixer with a faulty sample on hand. These products, among other things, differ in the distance between the knobs for adjusting the pressure and switching modes.
These are the most common problems with these products.
Good day. I was stumped by the cartridge in the tap of the Chinese shower stall. How to twist it? There is no nut.
It is not necessary to twist it, if it is not working, then it is cheaper to change the mixer.

It is still to separate it from the wall. It is most likely to be removed from the inside / the whole /, and the nut is a decorative shiny ring. Once staled. Unscrew the hemorrhoid, it slips, and on the thread inside it is soured. In a word, celestial.
I used to use a rubber tourniquet to twist such rings, but then I realized that I couldn’t be restored anyway, and I’m reaming it. And the matter is not in the Middle Kingdom, but in the water.

The question is simple, do you have such a cartridge?
The replacement principle is simple;
A leak from a tap has long become a "by the talk of the town" - a symbol of those small domestic troubles that cause major domestic scandals. And malfunctions in the work of the shower stall mixer are fraught not only with the deterioration of the psychological "weather in the house", but also with the likelihood of water leakage to the ceiling of neighbors living on the floor below.

In this case, it is not very profitable to wait for inspiration and postpone the shower repair for "some later". It takes very little time to fix the mixer, and all the work can be done independently, having "in service" with basic working tools:
hexagon;
flat screwdriver;
pliers.
A faucet is a plumbing mechanism that regulates the flow of water, obtains water of the required temperature by mixing hot and cold jets, and also directs the water towards the shower head.
Single lever mixer device.
Body made of brass with decorative electroplated coating. Shower cabins of most manufacturers, including their hydromassage modifications, consist of mixer and water distributor bodies connected by a tube.
Water mixer cartridge. Standard 35-40mm plastic cartridges are available at plumbing stores.
The clip of this cartridge, which acts as a holder. Its internal thread is intended for screwing onto the body, the internal partition is for fixing the cartridge on the surface of the body, the external thread is for fastening the tap to the shower stall console.
Distributor cartridge, so called divertor, held by a nut in the water distributor seat.
Mixer and water distributor handwheels.
The only trouble in eliminating the breakdown of the shower faucet is the inability to change the parts assembled in a non-separable cartridge. But it is for this reason that the repair itself turns out to be very simple to perform, because often only the replacement of the cartridge is required.
Mixer diagram with a ball mechanism.
Defects in the work of the distributor cartridge (upper):
Leaks under the switch. Such a crane breakdown appears for various reasons. If the cartridge case is cracked, you need to replace it. With a loosely tightened cartridge nut - tightening. When the rubber rings on the roller of this cartridge are worn out, there will be new rings. But if the leak is caused by insufficient seal of the cartridge in the socket, the entire mixer will need to be replaced. It is not easy to dismantle it, you will have to move the shower stall as it is fixed with a nut on the outer rear wall.
Shower modes do not switch or switch tightly, while a crunch is heard. This happens when the plastic of the cartridge breaks. Therefore, it needs to be replaced.
Defects in the mixer cartridge (lower):
water does not shut off;
water does not mix well;
the lever is too tight or too light.
Repair in all these cases has one option - replacing the cartridge.
Breakage from the thread of the cage, destruction of the partition - this is the saddest incident that can happen to the owners of shower stalls. With such breakdowns, a powerful jet of water, both cold and hot, hits wherever it pleases (good, if there is a tray in the shower). You should urgently cut off the water and run to the store! Immediate replacement of the mixer is imminent.
Repairing a faucet usually means simply replacing the cartridge. Alas, a rare cartridge after operating a shower cabin for several years can withstand the "quality" of our tap water with its rust, lime, sand, and all sorts of other elements of the periodic table.
First of all, you need to shut off the water to the shower with cut-off valves. Then proceed to dismantle the mixer. Remove the handle for turning on and mixing water (it can be in the form of a lever or it can be in the form of a ball). To do this, remove the plastic button-plug under the handle and unscrew the clamping screw. The decorative overlays are also removed. So, at the bottom of the mixer, pull the round plate towards you, and at the top, unscrew the nut that holds the decorative panel.

After preparatory work, using a flashlight, they inspect the inside of the assembly to make sure that the cartridge is broken. On the back wall of the shower stall, carefully unscrew the nut, remove the mixer assembly and the sealing rubber that seals the rack on both sides. Next, they clean the surface, apply a new layer of special sealant for plumbing and put a new cartridge tightly into the grooves. Twisting the cage and installing the sealing rubber lubricated with sealant, fix the structure with an outer washer and nut on the back of the shower stall.
After the assembly is completed, the mixer will work diligently again, giving all household members minutes of pleasure from pleasant water procedures.
The mixer in the shower stall can fail, like any other plumbing. Therefore, in order not to waste time and money on the services of specialists, it is better to familiarize yourself with the typical malfunctions of such devices and options for their elimination.The whole difficulty lies in the fact that many shower boxes have built-in taps, so it will not be superfluous to find out how problems with ordinary wall-mounted devices are solved. From our article you will learn how to disassemble a mixer in a shower stall, how to cope with the most common malfunctions on your own.
Almost all built-in mixers with which modern shower stalls are equipped have the same device:
Temperature and pressure are regulated by means of a cartridge with one control lever. The water pressure changes by raising and lowering the lever, that is, if you lower it completely, the water is completely blocked. To set the required temperature, just turn the lever to the right or left.
The ceramic cartridge provides switching between shower modes (watering can, tropical, hydromassage, jacuzzi). Through mutual rotation of ceramic ground plates with special slots, the mixture of cold and hot water is directed towards the desired set of nozzles.
Important! The number of modes in such designs can vary from 2 to 5.
Many of the problems these devices create to their owners are often associated with the following reasons:
With the failure of one of the cartridges. As a rule, holders break in them, ceramic plates are chipped off, a special lubricant is produced between adjacent surfaces. All this leads to serious resistance when trying to change the position of the handle.
Nozzles clogged with limescale deposits.
With the complete destruction of the core in the shower hose, after all, over time, the rubber becomes covered with lime and begins to crack.
Important! Holders and plates can only break due to the application of serious force to the main lever when they are jammed by foreign objects in the form of pieces of scale and sand. This problem is completely solved by installing filters at the inlet of the water supply.
If one of the cartridges is out of order, then it will not be difficult to repair the tap in the shower stall.
Please do the following to deal with this problem:
Turn off the water on the eyeliner.
Find the plastic plug on the lever, remove it.
Unscrew the screw under the cover plate.
Remove the handle.
Unscrew the chrome decorative nut underneath.
Important! Do this only by hand, without the use of keys, so as not to deform or damage it.
Unscrew the nut that secures the cartridge using a gas, adjustable or open-end wrench.
Remove the old cartridge, replace it with a new one.
Important! In cases where the lubricant is completely produced, the lever is displaced quite difficult, therefore, to extend the life of the cartridge, it is enough to disassemble it and re-lubricate the plates. But the feasibility of this venture is rather dubious, since a high-quality lubricant costs almost the same as a new cartridge.
If the shower hose is leaking, then this problem can be solved even easier. Perform its elimination according to the instructions:
Unscrew the nuts of the shower head and mixer from the body.
Pry metal or plastic inserts with a knife under the nuts, remove them together with the remains of the broken core.
Pull the core onto one of the bushings.
After threading the core through, insert it into the armor.
Pull the core that appears from the opposite side of the armor over the second liner.
Press the insert into the armor.
Reinstall the hose.
Repair of clogged nozzles is reduced to the most ordinary cleaning by means of an unbent paper clip.
Wall-mounted faucets are simpler in terms of the device, so replacement parts are not difficult to find, they are always on sale.
You will need to perform the following actions, depending on the nature of the malfunction and the cause of its occurrence:

Now you know how to disassemble a faucet in a shower stall, familiarized yourself with typical malfunctions and how to fix them.Thanks to this information, you can independently cope with the solution of everyday household problems.
Replacing a faucet in a shower stall is a fairly simple process. Any home craftsman, having figured out the rules for performing such an operation, will carry it out without any problems, returning the plumbing equipment to working condition.
No one is immune from breakdowns of plumbing fixtures in the bathroom. Even if you have recently overhauled the bathroom, there is no guarantee that after a while you will not need to repair or change the equipment used in it. In order not to constantly call plumbers, it makes sense to learn how to independently change worn-out elements of sanitary appliances and eliminate their minor breakdowns. And then the equipment in your bathroom will always be in working order.
Now many instead of bulky bathtubs install compact and neat shower cabins. They take up a minimum of space and make it possible to comfortably take water procedures. Cabins from renowned manufacturers are distinguished by a high level of reliability. But they have one problem - frequent failures of the mixer (it is often called a lever valve). It is an elementary device, the task of which is to mix in predetermined proportions into a total stream of jets of hot and cold water.
The main part of the mixer is the cartridge (cassette). It is this element that ensures the receipt of a stream of water of a certain temperature.
Structurally, cartridges are different. Moreover, the principle of their action is always the same. The body of the device has two discs (rotating and stationary) and several holes. They do all the work. The holes are aligned in different positions by changing the position of the discs, which allows the user to adjust the temperature and water pressure.
Modern cartridge models can have two or more switching modes. Such devices are made from brass alloys, stainless steel, plastic, and ceramics. Cassettes made of metal and brass under the influence of constant moisture fail quickly enough. Ceramic fixtures are more reliable, but their cost is objectively high. For these reasons, the most popular are plastic cartridges. They are inexpensive. And in terms of reliability, such structures are not much worse than metal ones.
Cartridge breakdowns are caused by various reasons. Let's highlight a few of the most common ones:
Incorrect installation of the crane and gross violations during its operation.
Poor water quality. Perhaps the most common reason for replacing a cartridge in a mixer. It is no secret to anyone that poorly purified liquid is supplied through domestic water supply systems. It destroys the elements of plumbing fixtures. Because of it, salt deposits appear, which disable the equipment in question.
Defects (factory) in the construction of the crane, its poor-quality assembly. Most often, such problems are noted in cheap Chinese-made faucets.
Wear of plates and moving parts as a result of prolonged use of the cartridge.
It is not difficult to understand that the mixer needs replacement or repair. Such a need is signaled by a cartridge leak. At the junction of the elements of the sanitary-technical structure, water begins to show through. If the cassette is not immediately replaced in such cases, very soon the valve body will collapse, and you will have to purchase and install a new device.
Also, repairs are required in cases where the standard operating modes of the mixer are violated - it is difficult (and sometimes completely impossible) to adjust the flow and its temperature, hot water is supplied instead of cold water, and so on. Often, if the lever valve cassette breaks down, it is impossible to close or open the water.Any of the indicated breakdowns should be eliminated immediately by dismantling the old one and installing a new cartridge.

Professionals advise to always use the cartridge models that were originally installed in the stall mixer. But if you can't find such a device, don't panic. You can mount a cassette from another manufacturer. The main thing is that the distance between its rods completely coincides with the dimensions of the faucet in the shower stall. You will not have any problems with choosing a cartridge. The above distance is characterized by standard values - 150, 125, 100 or 145 mm. You just need to measure the distance between the mixer tap and the lever with which you select the operating mode of the device. And then purchase a cassette with suitable dimensions.
In most cases, mixers with two taps are equipped with ceramic and brass cartridges with rubber or paronite seals. And on single-lever structures, ball cassettes are most often put. After you buy a new cartridge and stock up on simple tools - a hex key, pliers, a set of screwdrivers, you can proceed directly to replacing the failed product. First, you need to close the valves on the pipes through which water is supplied to the shower stall.
Then the valve must be disassembled. There is no need to be afraid of this process. How to disassemble a shower stall mixer yourself? Elementary! The algorithm for performing the work is as follows:
Remove the plug from the front of the linkage. There is a screw under it that must be unscrewed.
Dismantle the lever. In some cases, this procedure is associated with certain difficulties due to the fact that there is solid scale on the structure. The problem is solved simply - the tap needs to be poured with hot water (you can also use boiling water). This will cause the handle to expand so that the lever can be removed without effort.
Unscrew the nut (clamping) - it fixes the cassette, dismantle the cartridge.
You clean the inside of the mixer, check the condition of the sealing rings. If the latter have any flaws, it is advisable to immediately change them so that after a while you will not disassemble the tap again.
Install a new part.
Fix the new cassette with a nut, mount the front part of the valve back, tighten the screw.
All work on installing a new cassette has been completed. Check the mixer for functionality (test its operation in different modes) and visually for tightness. And then feel free to use your shower stall. If replacing the cassette does not solve the problem and the tap does not work as expected, you will have to completely change the mixer. In this case, you will need to unscrew it (the device mount is located on the back wall of the shower stall) and mount a new product. It is clear that such an operation will require more serious financial costs. A mixer is more expensive than a cassette.

Note! If you cannot get to the rear wall of the booth (to the point where the crane is attached), you will need to completely disassemble the hydrobox. It is better to entrust this operation to specialists. The knowledge and skills of an ordinary household craftsman may not be enough to disassemble and re-assemble a shower stall.
What is much more likely to break down in mixers operated with shower stalls? Our article is devoted to typical malfunctions of these plumbing devices and their elimination. It does not claim to be complete: our task is to acquaint the reader only with the most typical problems of common constructions.

We unscrew the nut securing the cartridge.
We change it to a new one and assemble the structure in the reverse order.
There is a little subtlety here: if you do not completely understand exactly which cartridges are installed in your booth, it is better to go to the store for a replacement, taking the faulty example with you.
Mixer cartridges can have different diameters (35 or 40 millimeters).
Products for switching the mode can have from 2 to 5 positions and differ in the length of the stem.
Agree, it would be inconsistent to outline the methods of repairing the product and not mention the circumstances of its failure.
And there are, in fact, only two circumstances:
Water quality level ... Dross or sand trapped in the groove of the plates when trying to close them is not allowed to do this. The use of force causes the ceramic plates to chip off; as an option, the plastic clips that hold them in the working position break.Note! The trouble is entirely solved by installing a pair of rough cleaning filters at the entrance to the apartment, right after the valves. The price of one filter is 120-200 rubles.
Attachment to the handle of large hardening ... Not only in those cases when the water does not turn off or the shower mode does not switch: the habit of users to close the water with a sharp blow on the handle sent thousands of cartridges and Valhalla thousands. In most cases, they break the notorious plastic clips or rods under the handle.How to remove the mixer from the shower for a complete replacement?
In most cases, it is fixed on the rear panel with wide decorative plates, which are pressed by the same nuts that fix the cartridges. Accordingly, the disassembly method is the same as in the previous case; the disassembled mixer is removed from the holes on the back of the booth.
Less often, the linings have their own thread; in this case, they are simply unscrewed.
It is fundamentally important: it is also better to select a new mixer with a faulty example on hand. These products, among others, differ in the distance between the knobs for switching modes and adjusting the pressure.
These are the most common troubles of these products.
All possible malfunctions that occur in the shower stall can be divided into three categories:
breakdown of plumbing (drain, shower, mixer),
failure of their electrical appliances,
violation of the integrity of the pallet and breakdown of other elements of the body.
Each of the categories deserves attention and more detailed consideration.
Do-it-yourself shower tray repair will most likely be required if an acrylic model is chosen. There is practically no chance for a metal product to get serious damage during operation.
Damage to the acrylic pallet can be as follows:
All these defects can be corrected with special compound for working with acrylic ... Usually it is two-component, and the instruction gives information about the mixing proportions of the main acrylic composition with the hardener and the curing time, which should be taken into account when preparing the solution and performing repair work.
To repair the shower tray, the structure will have to be dismantled. After that, the damaged product is thoroughly washed and dried. Only then can you start repairing.
In order to avoid further divergence of the existing crack in the acrylic pallet, it will need to be expanded before filling with the composition. It is convenient to perform this operation with a drill. The drill is chosen so that the increase in crack parameters (both in width and depth) is about 2 mm.
The crack drilled in this way is treated with a special solvent (it must be indicated on the label or instructions for the preparation that the reagent is intended for working with acrylic surfaces - it must have an alcohol base).
After degreasing, the crack is filled with a prepared (mixed with a hardener) paste so that a bump forms on the surface of the pallet.
To harden the mass, wait the time specified in the instructions.
The surface is sanded before leveling.
Knowing how to repair the shower tray in the presence of a crack, it will not be difficult to eliminate potholes. The technology for performing work in these cases is practically the same.
The pallet repaired with acrylic paste requires drying in a ventilated dry place. Leaving it in living rooms until the composition gains strength is not recommended because of the characteristic odor that is noticeable in the freshly prepared paste and disappears after it hardens.
Do-it-yourself repair of an acrylic shower tray in the event of a through hole occurs almost the same as in the case of a crack, only before filling it with paste on the back of the tray, you will need to make a "patch" using epoxy resin and fiberglass (in 3 layers).
Before installing the pallet dismantled for repair in place, check its tightness.
Do-it-yourself repair of the shower stall due to damage to the drain device is not required too often. This part of the structure is highly durable and, if properly installed, will last for a long time.
Dismantling the pallet and apron for repairing the drain of the shower cabin with your own hands may be required in the following cases:
complex blockage that cannot be cleaned with various devices from the outside,
mechanical damage to the outer part of the drain device (in this case, the damaged element must be replaced).
How difficult it will be to repair a shower stall mixer depends on the type of malfunction that has occurred.
If the gaskets have to be changed frequently, try to find out the reason, which could be, for example, poor water quality. Attention should also be paid to the quality of the gaskets themselves - By purchasing low-quality cheap products, you will not save, but only get more trouble associated with the need for frequent minor repairs.
Another reason for the short life of the gaskets can be incorrect installation of the mixer ... For example, geometrical misalignment can cause the mechanical load on the gaskets to increase beyond the allowable limit.
2. The malfunction of the cartridge is most often indicated by the difficulties with regulating the temperature regime, as well as the impossibility of completely shutting off the water.
After disassembling the system, carefully inspect the cartridge - the reason for the poor mixing quality may be a crack formed on it. In this case, you will need to replace the cartridge.
3. Leakage of water may be due to the fact that the cartridge does not hold well in its slot. Depending on the complexity of the situation, it may be necessary to repair the cartridge socket or completely replace the mixer.
Replacing the mixer is also required in the following cases:
in case of breakage of the installed thermostat,
if cracks appear on the mixer itself.
Repairing a shower stall mixer with your own hands or with the help of a specialist should be done promptly - as soon as signs of a malfunction appear. Otherwise, a malfunction may cause a more serious accident and flooding of your apartment and neighbors below.
The walls and door leaves of the cab do not corrode and practically do not wear out. They may need to be repaired only if they receive mechanical damage due to carelessness during operation. In this case, the only way out is to replace the damaged unit.
Elements whose work is associated with the effect of friction and the need to withstand certain loads are subject to wear - hinges for swing doors and rollers for sliding doors ... Such damaged elements cannot be repaired and must be replaced.
If one hinge or roller breaks, the door may in some cases continue to operate relatively normally. However, it is necessary to replace the damaged part as soon as possible, since in this case the load is redistributed between the surviving elements, and they wear out faster. Delay is fraught with increased costs associated with the need to replace several rollers or hinges.

If the frame of the structure is made of metal, the risk of rusting is quite high. During operation, it is necessary to ensure that the shower stall is dried after use, and when cleaning surfaces, it is not recommended to use chemically aggressive preparations.
If rust appears, you can try to remove it with special products and use protective coatings in the future. Usually, the rust is first removed with a sandpaper, then this place is covered with auto putty, cleaned, degreased, and at the end paint is applied to it from a spray can.
If there is a lot of rust and it cannot be removed, it is better to replace the damaged part.
We talked about main water filters here. Description of the types and advice on selection.
The electricians in the shower are demanding, even when it comes to conventional lighting. In high humidity conditions, non-observance of the safety instructions and improper installation or repairs can lead to accidents.Therefore, in most cases, it is recommended to trust the electrical part to professionals if the owner of an apartment or house does not have the necessary experience in this direction.
The help of a qualified technician is necessary if more complex devices fail, for example, automatic heater control systems, etc. Complex modern electronics for testing and repair requires not only the knowledge and experience of a professional, but also the use of expensive equipment that is unlikely to be found in the arsenal of a home craftsman. Self-intervention in a complex system can lead to more complex (and more expensive repair) damage.
Subject to the recommendations of specialists and experienced home craftsmen, the repair of the shower cabin in most cases can be done by hand.
