I have just replaced the valve below in a Kohler thermostatic mixer. The corrosion built up on the disk and caused the unit to start to drip. Is this a common problem? Should I be concerned? Could I have just cleaned it off an reinstalled it or is it finished?
The house is on well water (13GPG hardness) and has a water softener using potassium chloride instead of sodium. The plumbing is all PEX except where copper connects to shower valves. The house has only been occupied for 2.5 years.
Thanks,
Chris
