Those of you that know me, also know of my love for Moen faucets:whistling2:
So today, my brother calls me up and wants me to install a new shower valve up at the camp. I get there and what has he bought, yes indeed a GD Meon Temptrol. Sweet.
Anyhoo I gets it installed, turn it on and it leaks like a sieve from the housing. Pull it apart and the O ring has a slice in it. No problem, have spares. Putting the cartridge back in and the spring clip jumps from my greezy fingers and falls in the pine needles. No problem, have spares. Get it back together, turn it on and nothing comes out:furious: Take it apart again and the cartrige is frozen solid. No problem,............have spares. :thumbup:
Normally I like these problems because I swear servicing Moen valves has paid for my bass boat. But this my own camp for christ sakes.
