How can I replace the control unit without going into the wall of the bathtub?I have a shower/bath that has low water pressure. I believe it might be in the shower bath control unit. ?
Is there a wall behind the shower? You can open that wall, to access the faucet, and piping. What brand faucet is it? Is it a single handle? Moen and newer Delta faucets have a replaceable cartridge. I would try that first, before opening any walls.I have a shower/bath that has low water pressure. I believe it might be in the shower bath control unit. ?
it is hard to answer this with out more details. usually the diverter control can be repaired by simply di-assembling the knob. once this is done there is a valve that can be replaced. if you can get this far take these parts to a hardware or plumbing shop.
check any shut off valves leading to the shower...they may not be opened all the way. Most mixing valves have a replaceable valve body inside the handle but, normally when they fail it leaks.
