A Concealed Shower and its Thermostatic Cartridge

A valve integrated behind the wall of a shower enclosure is identified as a concealed shower valve. To install such a valve, a minimum wall recess depth of ten centimeters is required to allow the valve and its fixings to fit right at its back. Hence, walls formed from bricks are unsuitable for the valve type.

Chrome-finished faceplates and handles are set on the wall surface, giving the user direct access to the controls while showering. There is a wide range of designs available for a concealed shower valve; with plates and handles in various shapes.

Douglas James shower pods are furnished with a concealed shower valve. The valves use thermostatic cartridges with a manufacturer part number of DJ82391. The cartridge is held within the hidden valve seat. It regulates shower water thermostatically and a shower user can adjust this by turning the control handle accordingly.

Even though the valve is behind the wall, repairing or replacing the cartridge can be simple. The faceplate, handles, temperature stop ring, and washers can be easily removed to retrieve the cartridge.

Before replacing the thermostatic cartridge, please confirm that cold and hot water supplies are closed as a safety precaution against thermal shock perchance water pours from the supply pipes or water outlets.
