Faulty Product on Faucet Parts

I installed this pressure equalization unit and found it was leaking. This fixes a temperature issue I was having but kept leaking. I ended up going to Ace Hardware to buy an OEM part and that solved the problem. I would not buy from this seller. It could just be a faulty part, but it could also be because it's not an OEM part.

Pros
  • Cartridges
Cons
  • Long Delivery Time

Fits my old model Kohler Shower Control

This part replaces the old Kohler Pressure Regulator 73716-aa. As far as I know, this article has been updated 2-3 times. It was an exact match and came with lots of extra gaskets and o-rings. My old pressure regulator stopped flowing hot water. (nothing came out but cold water) Would buy again if needed (hope this one lasts)

Pros
  • Faucet Parts
Cons
  • Functionality

Works and fits perfectly

Perfect replacement for my original balancing valve. This solved my temperature problems. (Can't get hot water). I also changed the mixing valve which I bought separately. I advise you to buy two together at once, usually cheaper. All o-ring options are included. A NOTICE! Don't forget the small clear capsule of silicone grease for the orange setup! It's in a screw pack.

Pros
  • Rough plumbing
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
