Moen PosiTemp Rough In Pressure Balancing Shower Valve, 1/2" CC Connection, Part Number 2520

We built our home 40 years ago and used Delta/Kohler brands for kitchen and baths. I must say neither of those products have had a screwdriver touch them since placed into service. For some reason I chose Moen 2520 for our current bath remodels. It is a very nice unit and as easy as any to install. Cannot for the life of me figure out why it costs twice as much as the Delta though. And my bad, I could have got in as "open box" on eBay for about $50. The only issue with this product is the one that plagues so many purchasers. If you follow the instructions the valve handle will be sticking out a ridiculous amount from the trim plate. The solution is to fully "dry" assemble the valve with trim, then install proper backing to ensure all comes out looking good. I like to have the operating handle just clear the trim plate screws, and no more. Then.....nice looking installation!

Valve works well and am very satisfied.

Purchased a Moen Asceri Posi-Temp Single Handle Tub & Shower Trim Kit quite some time ago but neglected to buy the rough in valve which was not included. This product is very well made but before purchasing it is important to know if you have copper pipes, if you do you would need to purchase this 2520 Pressure Balancing Valve (Copper connections are typically soldered). Otherwise the Moen 2510 Posi-Temp Pressure Balancing Tub and Shower Valve that has an IPS (Iron Pipe Size) and is threaded would be the correct one for you to purchase. Both models have 1/2 " connections and both come with Moen's Limited Lifetime Warranty for residential use.

Moen is always solid. downside is this needed to be soldered.

I replaced a old Delta shower control valve that started leaking. I did not know the model number so I was not able to find a cartridge for it. Installation was much easier using Sharkbite connectors. I only sweated ( soldered) the connections to the valve itself and everything else is Sharkbite connected. I like the balancing features. No big sudden change in temperature when the washing machine uses water while we take showers.

This valve seems to have worked like a charm for our shower re-build project. Our water pipes are copper so I guessed that this would be the appropriate valve and the plumber installed it with no issues. Once the shower was done and everything tiled, we turned on the shower to find that the hot and cold were switched from the markings on the handle. My first reaction was disappointment that we'd have to either tear the wall apart or live with the hookups reversed. WRONG. I took a quick look online to see if this happened to anyone else and quickly found that all I needed to do was to rotate the internal valve 180-degrees. It took about five minutes to fix with only an allen-wrench, pliers, and a screwdriver. So far I have been very happy with this valve and I think very highly of all Moen products and their outstanding reputation for quality and service.

Best price around for our guest bath shower build. Always check Amazon.

Needed to install a new one as my old valve stem broke off inside the old one and i damaged it. Works like new!!

este producto viene sugerido por el monomando que compre pero no lo es ,y perdi el tiempo de poder vevolver mala descripcion o sugerencia de modelo

Faut absolument retirer la cartouche avant de souder les extrémités avec des raccords de cuivre, sinon ça scrap la cartouche.

As advertised. Did the job.

Easy install

Got tired of replacing cartridges only to continue to have leak so replaced the whole assembly. Works great, but so expensive.
