Review: Parts fit perfectly and were easy to install. Only needed pliers and a Phillips Screwdriver
Review: I can’t speak to the longevity, only the installation, which was great. I have no idea which model my old shower valve was, nor whether I really needed the pressure balancing unit or the mixing valve, so I replaced both with this kit. I just knew my old valve was Kohler and I couldn’t get very hot water from the tub spout, and the water temp was kind of bouncing around. The PBU on this kit looks a little different than my old one, with a slightly different shape and the new one has oval rear holes vs round. I did some research and found this was all normal and by design. Mine had a white threaded tube that goes on the outside of the valve (for the handle to screw onto). I had to search forums to learn that this snaps off with a little pressure from a flathead screwdriver from the bottom. Then it push-snaps onto the new valve. All in all, straightforward installation without any hitches. Works great, no problems. Consistent water temp, hot is back, and no leaks when off.
