Anybody else unhappy about the shower controls in the 06 Pace Arrow 37c. Im a big guy and when i move around in the shower i sometimes touch the lever that controls the flow and temp of the showerhead and get a shot of hot or cold water before i can adust the control. I would prefer a knob controller over the lever type thats in there now. How hard would it be to replace whats in there now? Has anybody done this so far? Anthony
On my 03, it has a single handle for the shower. I have a round knob, instead of a handle. It is interchangeable for a knob or lever and should be able to get it at Lowe’s or HD. Few weeks ago, I took apart the shower controls and found out it is the same as a Delta kitchen sink faucet. After understanding how it works, now I know how to use it correctly.
I had a hard time trying to mix the water volume of the hot and cold mixture. I was trying to use as little water as possible and therefore was only opening the control just a little. For the Delta faucets to work properly, you have to open it ¾ to full for the hot and cold mixture to get an even temperature.
What I did was install a shower ball valve before the showerhead. Now, I fix the flow as I want, wet down, and then turn off the ball valve to conserve water. In other words I take a sailors shower. Works for me........
