A shower handle is a device for controlling water temperature in a shower. On most shower handles, turning the handle clockwise increases hot water, and counterclockwise decreases it. A modern style of shower handles will have preset temperatures marked on the stem as well as graduations for exact temperature control by rotating the stem from one temperature setting to another. Knowing how to repair Shower handles in your home is a must, as you will be able to use your shower when it breaks, and oftentimes people will complain that their showers are not working. To repair this problem you will need to loosen the screw on the outer cover (usually a hex or Philips head screw) to allow for room in which to move the stem back into place. Be careful not to lose any of the parts as they are small and can easily get lost causing further problems with your shower handle mechanism. If your shower handle is not attached to the wall by screws or has a cover, you will need to use a flat head screwdriver and gently pry it around the outer ring of the brass inside. This ring can be very tight so take care not to strip out your screw. This part of repairing Shower handles uses delicate manipulation with tools and is not a job you want to take on if you are inexperienced. If your handle does not have settings on the stem, then it will need to be disassembled and cleaned thoroughly in order for it to work properly again. Keep all of the parts nearby as they may get lost and make sure you know how many pieces there should be when fully assembled before taking anything apart. Chances are your shower handle has become loose due to daily usage throughout the years.
