Default ID shower valve cartridge
I'm trying to fix a leaking shower valve, but I'm having trouble identifing the manufacturer. There is no names, or model # on the trim. Does anybody know what this is??

Looks like a Taiwanese ProFlo from Fergys.

Thanks for the quick reply, this is actually for a friend, so I'll try to get a pic of the trim up soon.

It really does look like a ProFlo cartridge from Fergusons. Please post what you find it to be in case I'm wrong as I might run into it myself.

Good luck.

The only thing that steers me away from thinking it's ProFlo is age. If it's been in a long time-then I could be way off because ProFlo hasn't been distributed that long.

But it could be the same valve design contracted to ProFlo.

If it's any help there are two handles one for temp. and on/off and one to divert water between the shower head and the tub spout.
