    Strange shower temp change

    I have a Grotherm 3000 valve (34909) in a shower that was installed many years ago. A little while ago, it started only putting out hot water. After a little research, it seemed like the cartridge was the most likely candidate. When I opened it up and tried to turn off the supply locally using...
