Title: Help Please
Post by: Eddie_Rhone on March 12, 2015, 11:46:45 am

Hi

Recently acquired a very very old cimex, its grey rather than yellow, with the intention of trying to refurb it. Spoke to truvox and unfortunately all parts are now discontinued I have managed to find most of the bits I need except for the valve that releases the solution when the handle lever is pulled.

I've attached some pics of the valve, I don't think it is a original part, and would be grateful if anyone knows where I can get a replacement.

Kind Regards
Eddie

Best bet may be to get a generic water tank, fabricate a bracket of sorts and connect that as it will have a feed valve built in.
