Price Pfister 0X8-340A Pressure Balance Valve, Universal Fittings, With Stops

Only used the internal parts to replace my old broken parts. Very simple to install if you know how to take apart the old valve.

Wish the factory settings on mix was a bit better after shower was done tried new fixtures all cold next to no hot water. Had to take apart and adjust.

This product did not fit the fixtures it claimed in the listing and would not allow me to return it. Very disappointed with customer service in this situation.

Great iteam

Not being a plumbing expert, I was confused about the terms with stops and less stops on some plumbing shower valves. After finding out that the stops allow you front access for future maintenance like cartridge replacement, we chose the one with stops. Very happy with it thus far.

Missing a screw very annoying delayed my tub working

Incorrect description. Only the stop fittings are female. Remember, to turn off the unit, at the wall, you MUST loosen the collars around the stops. The screws will NOT turn, otherwise, and youll tear the brass slots to nothing. If your cut-out is in tile, and its a tight circle around the cartridge, you will NOT be able to access the stops, unless you nibble away at the tile, and thats not a good idea. In that case, install 1/2 male brass plugs, into the stops. They will sock up without turning off the hot and cold flow. I like being able to easily change out valves, so the male fittings are great. You dont need to make sweat connections. You can use flex hoses to hook up to your supply pipes, as long as all are fitted with threaded connections. Easy as pie, once you get those threaded connections sweated onto your existing pipes. Good luck, have fun!

When I opened this to find the stem was plastic (even though the manufacturers website says it is all brass), I returned it. I bought the more compact valve,

Good product, works as intended.
