Installing A 1222 Moen Cartridge • Open sidebar • Fixing Moen shower valve • • Repairing a Moen tub and shower valve typically involves addressing issues with water flow, temperature control, or leaks. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you repair a Moen tub and shower valve: • Gather tools and materials: You will need a Phillips-head screwdriver, an adjustable wrench, plumber's tape, a replacement cartridge (if necessary), and a Moen cartridge puller (optional). • Turn off the water supply: Before working on your tub and shower valve, ensure that the water supply to the bathroom is turned off. This can usually be done by locating the shut-off valves behind an access panel or in the basement. • Remove the handle: Start by removing the handle from the valve. You may need to pop off the handle cap with a flat-head screwdriver to expose the screw. Then, use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the screw and take off the handle. • Remove the escutcheon plate: Unscrew and remove the escutcheon plate (the decorative cover) to expose the valve assembly. • Remove the cartridge retaining clip: Locate the small horseshoe-shaped metal clip at the top of the valve assembly. Use needle-nose pliers to carefully pull the clip out. • Remove the cartridge: Grip the cartridge stem with pliers and gently pull it out. If the cartridge is stuck, you may need to use a Moen cartridge puller or a pair of locking pliers and a screwdriver for leverage. Be cautious not to damage the valve body when removing the cartridge. • Inspect and replace the cartridge: Check the cartridge for damage or wear. If necessary, replace it with a new Moen cartridge, ensuring it's the correct model for your valve. Apply a thin layer of plumber's tape around the threads of the new cartridge for a better seal. • Reassemble the valve: Slide the new cartridge into the valve body, aligning the notches with the corresponding tabs. Secure the cartridge by reinserting the retaining clip. If your valve has a rotational stop limit, ensure it's properly aligned for the correct temperature range. • Reattach the escutcheon plate and handle: Screw the escutcheon plate back in place and reattach the handle by tightening the screw. Replace the handle cap if necessary. • Turn the water supply back on: Slowly turn the water supply back on and test the shower and tub for proper function, ensuring there are no leaks and that the temperature control is working correctly. • Adjust as needed: If you notice any issues, turn off the water supply and make the necessary adjustments before reassembling the valve and testing again. • Remember that if you're unsure about any of these steps or encounter difficulties, it's best to consult a professional plumber for assistance. • Plumbing Channel Installation. • • • #ptrap #kitchensinkdrain #bathroomsinkdrain #pvctubing #underkitchensink #drian #disposal #garbagedisposal #sewergassmell #howtoplumbing #plumber #plumbing #claudetaylor #1222 • Mailing Address • Claude Taylor • B.O.
