This thermostatic cartridge is the replacement spare for the Hudson Reed Tec Dual Shower Valve.

Frequently Asked Questions: Hudson Reed Replacement Thermostatic Cartridge for A3091 Valve

Question: The screws on the handle are removed but I cannot remove it from the valve.
Answer: A3091 handles can get stuck on the valve because of calcification or corrosion. You can try pulling the handle out with extra force. If it refuses to budge, use WD-40 and see if it loosens.

Question: Shower water flow rate is reduced to a trickle. Is the cartridge the problem?
Answer: Check if the water supply pipes to the shower are unclogged and that water supply to the shower is consistent.
– If there are no clogs and water supply is okay, the Hudson Reed shower cartridge might be starting to die.

Before Ordering

A3192 shower valves have been supplied with different cartridge versions. Compare the removed cartridge with the product photographs, paying particular attention to the body shape, seal positions and control spindle. Check the original spindle diameter and spline count, and confirm the cartridge version before ordering.

Troubleshooting

Symptom: Water dripping from the shower head when the valve is turned off. Likely cause: Debris obstructing shut-off or an incorrect flow-control setting. Solution: Check for debris and adjust the flow control as described in the valve instructions.

Symptom: Reduced flow or difficulty reaching the required temperature. Likely cause: A blockage, unsuitable water supply conditions or incorrect control settings. Solution: Check the water supplies and valve adjustment before replacing the cartridge.

Installation and Servicing

Isolate the water supplies before servicing. Clean the valve body and apply a thin coating of suitable silicone grease to the cartridge O-rings. After installation, reset the temperature and flow controls in accordance with the valve instructions. Check for leaks, confirm that the shower shuts off fully and recommission the valve before use.
