Why does my Symmons shower diverter keep breaking?
This is not an uncommon occurrence. The piece of solder is blocking the port to the shower. It could also be the reason you keep breaking diverters. I have been fixing Symmons valves for over 25 years and have never come across a cracked diverter. There probably is no way to get it out short of cutting out the valve.
