Simmons Temptrol Shower Valve Leakage

Oct 26, 2007 0 Replies

Hi,



Have the pretty typical Simmons Temptrol (single large knob) hot/cold water adjusting control in my shower.



Have a leak in the plaster in the general vicinity of underneath the shower, but not exatly.



Realize this is a tough one to answer, but what is the "history" of, and experience with, these units actually leaking to the outside ?



By this I don't mean allowing leakage thru the shower head, but actually leaking to perhaps the plaster in the room underneath.



Was wondering if there is a history of this, or they are pretty reliable in this regard ?



Hate to start digging it out if it isn't the actual culprit, or likely to be the problem.



Thanks, Bob
