Shower mixer tap problem All aspects of plumbing questions and answers, help, tips and information

[umvert]

Ok - first post, so be gentle

I have fitted a standard shower mixer tap with a pull down piece in the middle that makes the shower work rather than the taps.

Problem is that although it works, its not coming out the shower very fast and some water is still coming out of the tap

Can i fix this, i did buy the taps second hand as money is a bit tight

Would appreciate some help

"you only get what you pay for"sprang to mind straight away
being second hand i doubt there is a lot you can do perhaps some wd40 on the pull device, this is how these taps go after a while and how old is old? im sorry i feel you may after to live with it
