Aqualisa AQ-518101 is a thermostatic cartridge assembly for the Aqualisa Midas 100 high pressure mixer valve range. It is supplied with the temperature control handle and is used to control the blended outlet water temperature inside the valve.

Common symptoms can include unstable temperature, poor hot water control, all-hot or all-cold output, temperature swings, or a temperature control handle that no longer sets the shower correctly.
