In response to Re: Volume and pressure problem with shower
: I have a two handle (one for volume and one for temp-on/off) Andre shower valve model 2015-204-IP-SN that has very little volume or pressure. When on the cold side ti is much better but the volume handle does nothing. : Any help on how to repair this would be much appreciated...my wife is about to rip open the wall!!! I would strongly advise you to call a plumber for this. Most tub/shower valves do not have individual shut-offs and you are required to shut off the main. This is not a common brand of valve where parts are readily available. If you get this apart or break a part and cannot get it back together, the water will stay off. You think your wife is upset now.... Deb The Pipewench
