I saw you asking about the process for shower valve replacement, so let me help you with the same process. To replace the cartridge, you’ll have to start by turning off the water supply and removing the shower valve cartridge using a hex wrench.
Start by turning off the water supply and turn on the valve until the water stops running. Now, to remove the handle, take a hex wrench and remove the screws holding the escutcheon and slide out the escutcheon.
If you find a chrome sleeve, you need to either pull it out or unscrew it. Take a small screwdriver to take out the retaining clip that keeps the cartridge in place.
A few of the cartridges can be taken out using pliers. However, a lot of different kinds need a special cartridge-pulling wrench made for the particular tap brand.
Now, if you find any mineral deposits on the cartridge, soak it in vinegar to clean it. If you find the cartridge in its original shape, change the O-rings and any other damaged parts if needed. Before you reinstall the O-rings, rub them with a thin coat of silicone grease.
At last, place the new or repaired cartridge into the tap body. Slide in the retaining clip and change the handle and escutcheon.
This is the process of changing shower cartridges. I hope you find this helpful.
