Group Gasket and Screen Removal
There are two ways to remove the group gasket and shower screen depending on how
old they are. If you replace the group gasket yearly then the first method shown is
recommended. If the gasket is older and dried out then the second method shown will
be necessary.
Method 1
In the picture to the right shows an indent that
goes around the perimeter of the screen.
Insert either a flat blade screwdriver or a spoon
into the indent and then carefully pry the gasket
and screen down. You may have to do this on a
few spots to remove them.
Method 2
If the gasket and screen will not come out using
the previous method then you will need a scratch
awl or ice pick to remove them.
Using the scratch awl or ice pick, deeply pierce
the gasket and then pry it down. If the gasket is
old and dried out then it will be more difficult to
remove and will come out in pieces. Repeat until
all remnants of the old gasket are removed.
