What is a mixer valve and how do you repair it?
Any faucet or control that mixes the hot and cold water before it comes out of the spout is a mixer valve. It is usually reserved for a shower control. They will vary in how to fix them. Some you replace rubber seals and gaskets, some you replace a cartridge. It is really no different than a kitchen faucet in the way it is put together. All of them you take the handle or handles off, then the trim plate and then you have access to the valve. Some are screwed in and some are held in with a clip that locks the cartridge in the body of the control. With the water turned off, taking it apart one step and layer at a time, laying out the pieces as they come off, it shouldn't be a problem fixing it. I believe this is true, if the valve screws in, it will probably have rubber seals that can be replaced. If the cartridge is held in with a clip, you replace the entire cartridge.

How do you correct water faucet handles that are on when in the outward position?
I assume the handles are the quarter turn type. If you turn the into the bowl to shut them off, it may be that the handles are just set on the stems wrong. If this is not the case, the cartridge in each side is in backwards. Shut the water off, take the handle off and the ring under the handle that holds the cartridge in. Pull straight up on the stem, pulling the cartridge out and rotate the whole cartridge 180 degrees and reinstall. There should be two small notches in the body of the faucet that line up with bumps on the cartridge.

How to Differentiate Between Kitchen Fixture Types?
There are hundreds of various kitchen fixture types that differ in style, color and shapes. However, most of these faucet fixtures can be grouped into one of four types including compression, cartridge, disc, and ball. These terms refer to the method of flow control the faucet uses. When choosing a faucet fixture for your kitchen, consider the type of valve your faucet uses as this will determine the price, quality and life of the fixture. The cartridge, disc, and ball type faucets are generally known as “mixing faucets”. This type of faucet fixture is popular and is described as having a single handle, although cartridge and disc fixtures can also be created with two handles. Compression type faucets contain two handles, one for hot water and one for cold. Cartridge faucet fixtures contain a plastic or metal cartridge that is used to seal the spout. If you notice that your faucet is leaking, the reason may be that the cartridge needs replacing. Compression faucets contain two separate handles for each temperature. When the handle is turned, a washer that would typically seal the valve opens, allowing water to flow through. The valve is then closed when the handle is turned back. Cartridge, disc, and ball type faucets do not contain washers and are often referred to as “washerless” fixtures. Ball faucets feature a single lever that is able to rotate, using a metal ball. The ball contains slots that align with hot and cold inlets within the body to help regulate the flow. Disc kitchen fixtures use two discs, a fixed lower disc and a movable upper disc to regulate water flow. When a leak occurs, the inlet and outlet seals are usually to blame. Washerless kitchen fixtures are one of the most popular types of faucets among the few that were mentioned. This is because seals and washers wear out rather quickly, resulting in a dripping or slow water leak. Washers and O-rings can be inexpensively replaced rather easily with just a few tools. Before you attempt to replace these parts, be sure that the water is turned off and the valves beneath the sink are in the shutoff position.
