I've got two service calls hanging fire, both involve Grohe shower valves, most likely the temperature apparatus.
The first one is a Grohemix that is probably frozen up with mineral deposits from lack of use. The handle is hard to turn, though I got it to move some. Two people in a house with 14 bathrooms.
The second is a Eurotemp, set up like a Grohe if it's not one. When turned on the water dribbles from all ports; shower, hand-held, and body sprays. Temp setting handle goes around and around, no change. The little red stop button is gone.
If I need to replace the guts in one or both of these little darlings, I'd like to do it once and be done with it if possible. I've installed a very few Grohe valves, but have virtually no experience in service or repair. If it aint hanging on the rack at HD, I'm lost.
I'd be grateful for any information or guidance.
Thanks.
