Hello,
After draining quite thoroughly the water system on my boat in readiness for the winter cold and leaving two thermostatically controlled oil filled heaters on low(at great cost) I have been to check on the boat today and found on trying the water system that 3 out of four of the boats mixer taps are leaking through the top gland very badly! On dismantling the taps i cant see any damage or displacement of cartridge o rings? on re building they are still leaking although no signs of damage to cartridge or Tap body! Has anyone had this experience and are able to advise if a new cartridge will cure the problem?
All thoughts and helpful comments welcome.
Andy
