Why did my kitchen mixer tap suddenly start pouring out water?
Metin:
Homebase 'Leonie' mixer tap bought 2.5 years ago for £130. Top quality!
Suddenly, without anyone touching it and with both taps turned off water started pouring out of the spout. Have had to isolate the cold water supply to stop the flow which is about 80% of the normal mains flow rate. How can a modern ceramic valve fail in this catastrophic manner? Is this a design fault and will a valve change be worth it?
