Question: Why is my Bristan shower only running cold water?
Answer: Both hot and cold water from the supply lines must flow into the thermostatic cartridge. If both are okay, the thermostatic cartridge might be at fault and the cold temperature it is producing is the temperature point from where the cartridge failed. You have to replace it with a new Bristan thermostatic shower cartridge SK1850-2 to get your shower up and running back to normal.
Question: Is it possible to receive this shower cartridge spare part asap?
Answer: Yes. This genuine Bristan / Sirrus SK1850-2 shower cartridge spare part can be dispatched on the same day when you order it before 3:00 PM (Mondays to Fridays only).
Question: What is the seal kit that goes with this cartridge?
Answer: SK1850-1 is the seal kit for this cartridge. Changing the seal kit together with the thermostatic cartridge is one way of ensuring the leak repair will be long-lasting.
