FAQ: Lefroy Brooks LB1750
The Lefroy Brooks LB1750 is a thermostatic cartridge with three O-rings and no filter gauzing. Blockages are not usually a problem with no-gauzing cartridges. However, it can break down due to wear and tear and when mineral deposits strain the wax thermostat element. Here are some of the most common questions and answers regarding this shower valve replacement part.
Q: Water gets cold after some minutes of use. Do I need to replace the Lefroy Brooks LB1750? I would also mention that the plumber saw no problem with hot water reaching the shower valve.
A: It could be that the piston of the Lefroy Brooks LB1750 is failing to properly retract.
The piston “senses” the difference between hot and cold water. It moves up when the water temperature is hot and down when it is cold. This is how the thermostatic cartridge regulates water temperature. If it is not able to retract properly, possibly attributed to years of use, it can no longer do its job effectively. A replacement cartridge will be needed.
Q: Water does not go hot and cold but is stuck in a single temperature. What could be the cause of the problem?
A: With the first question, the piston in the Lefroy Brooks LB1750 is failing to retract properly which results in cooling water temperature after a few minutes. The piston is also the cause of the problem when the temperature gets stubborn to adjust.
But in this case, the piston is not retracting at all. Calcified minerals could have contributed to the deterioration of the piston. These minerals become hard enough to scratch the piston as it moves up and down permanently damaging it.
