Fix / de-scale kitchen tap

I would imagine that there will be a hidden grub screw beneath the red/blue temperature indicator. Use a thin blade under the edge of it and it'll probably pop out.

Once you've slackened the screw the lever will come off giving you access to remove the cartridge.

Well there are a *lot* of similar looking valves but once you have it in you hand you can compare it with pictures on line to confirm that the replacement is correct.

Yes, that was my guess from the PDF and the red/blue thing just disintegrated when I took it off? Can't see a screw in there - not had time since to grab a torch.

OK, useful to know, thanks.

Got a water softener last week for £1500 - that's a thing of the past for me now.

Well if there's a hole I bet there's a screw down there. Sometimes it's a hex socket, 3mm or thereabouts.

In fact, you can see it on the PDF of the tap you posted. Part B3.

Looked into the kettle today, clean as a whistle. What a shithole you must live in.

If your water is that soft, let's hope that you haven't got any lead pipes!

Soft water in Scotland too. The south has terrible water.

Got myself a new Jack Russell puppy, he's mainly black and brown with a = small white patch, so I've named him England.

I live in the superior north. I've worked in the shithole of the south, looked into the kettles in hotels and have been disgusted with what I saw in them.

I grew up in a soft water area and we definately had lead pipes. What hava =e I suffered from in the last 76 years?

Goes against the grain does this. I agree with you. I won't sleep tonight .......

A young girl had not been feeling well and went to her family doctor. "Y= oung lady," the doctor began, "you're pregnant." "But that can't be. The only men I've been with are nudists, and in our= colony we practice sex only with our eyes." "Well my dear," said the doctor, "someone in that colony is cockeyed."

Local police hunting the "knitting needle nutter", who has stabbed six p= eople in the last 48 hours, believe the attacker could be following some= kind of pattern.

Lead poisoning, unfortunately. The limescale coats the insides of the lead pipes and stops lead dissolving in the water.

So, I'm dead?

Possibly. Are you above or below ground level?
