We have an older add in shower in our basement. Prefab metal basic shower. The house is 100 years old. There are two hot and cold older shower handles. I believe when the house was purchased 4 years ago, the plumber replaced both cartridges.
The problem is, at first, you can regulate the temperature by adjusting the hot and cold handles. But at times, the water suddenly becomes scalding.
We’ve had plumbers look at it, but they say (after initially getting the right temp and quickly turning off) that nothing is wrong. Possibly a Chicago Faucet, but maybe not, but not newer.
What is going wrong? How can we fix?
Any thoughts appreciated. Thank you!
