    Would this be a Delta tub and shower valve? If not wha'st your brand name? Back to you Tom

    Yes if I get what you mean (English is not my mother tongue, hence I don't know all the technical terms).
    It is in my shower cabin.
    The Delta T13120 looks a lot like mine but without the tub faucet of course (since it is for a shower only).
    Thanks Tom.

    Tom, I don't understand how you remove the screw (inside the handle) if there is no way to have any grip on it.
    Thank you for Delta number.
    Cheers.

    Hey Tom,
    Just wanted to let you know I called Delta tech support. They suggested me to drill in the screw and then remove the handle. I will have to replace it and maybe the ball too.

    Thank you for your help!

    How do you remove the ball that holds the seats and springs when it doesn't come out with the whole cartridge

    I think I used pliers, making sure not to tight them too hard.

    I have the same issue removing the handle. Tried a few times but had no luck loosening the allen screw. By the way size is 1/8 allen wrench. I tried socking it with Liquid wrench and waiting for 15 min, but the allen wrench keeps slipping. May be I will try WD40.
