I have a Symmons Temptrol in one of my apartments that is dripping. I was over there caulking the tub when I noticed it.
I removed the trim to see what I was in for. I got as far as removing the t-34 screw and then attempted to turn part t-11 with no luck. I gave up and came home to look at the parts diagram online.
I searched through the forums and found good advice on servicing these valves. I'm more used to working on the newer Delta and Moen "cartridge" types of shower valves that are very easy.
What are the risks of rendering this thing useless? I was adding up the cost of the various part kits for this valve, TA-4, TA-9 and maybe the TA-25A. It adds up quickly.
I'd rather let it drip for now and plan on a whole valve replacement down the road. The valve in question is about 17years old.
What do you guys think.
