Review on 10 Inch Luxury Rain Mixer Shower Combo Set - Wall Mounted Chrome Faucet, Valve & Trim Included - HGN by Ryan Gilliam

Revainrating 1 out of 5

What is that noise?!?!

I was really excited about this. Got it installed in my new shower and then I started hearing a noise that sounded like dripping water. I tore into the back wall on two sides of the shower, concerned that I had a water leak. Everything was dry. I left it for another week and it started to drive me nuts so I started investigating again. Everything went back to the cold water side of this valve. I thought it might be water hammering issue so I put an arrestor on the line. Nope! Then got closer. The noise was right inside the valve. Although I am not 100% certain, I believe (from comments I have found online) that the cartridge for this thing has a major design flaw. Again, it works great. Just makes this noise that drives me nuts. Pay a bit extra and get a moen.

The faucet caused a loud banging in the walls when water was run anywhere in the house. We paid $450 to our contractor to rip out tile to uninstall this faucet. We tried TWO separate faucets from this seller, both caused the loud knocking/banging.
