dimplexax3 fitting a solenoid valve

having watched your demonstration video on how to fit a solenoid valve to the 2 shower examples shown it seemed a fairly straightforward task However on ordering the selenoid valve compatable for the dimplex ax3 shower Ifound it much more of a daunting task Unless im mistaken you have to almost dismantle the shower to fit the valve Needless to say I failed. I wonder if you could enlighten me as to how this is done?

Hi

 

Yes you are correct it can look a bit daunting however the replacement is fairly straight forward.

Turn of the water and power, you then have to dismantle most of the inside of the shower to get enough space to slip the old part out and the new part in.

 

This sounds more difficult than it actually is, however you do have to be methodical noting where screws/nuts etc. come from and what goes where and it is always a good idea to take photos before you start and as you go because you can refer to them when you are rebuilding.

If there is any particular place you are stuck then get back to me.
