Mixer Taps On My Bath
3 Answers
On my bath, I have one of those shower attachment thingies....wear you pull up the button and the water flows out of the hand-held shower, instead of the taps.
But I have never really been able to use it, for anything other than washing the bath down. The temperature of the water is impossible to control....its either far too hot, or stone cold, no matter how you "mix" then up.
Its not really a problem I suppose but is there any know cure ?

It is actually illegal to have a shower plumbed such that someone running cold water elsewhere in the house can reduce the cold water pressure and have the shower run hotter. You could have the bath taps re-plumbed such that the cold feed is from the header tank - that way both taps will have the same water pressure and you should be able to adjust the flow for a good temperature.
