    Problems with hot water in shower
    We have Moen valve in our shower. Changed the inside valve last year as we couldn't get hot water. That seemed to help. Now we have the same issue. Hot water everywhere else in the house. Any suggestions?

    Moen cartrdiges are warranteed for life so I hope you got a free one last year. Cartridge is cloggged and can be cleared. Apparently you already know how to pull the cartrdige. This time before you reinstall the cartrdige hold a towel over the valve body and have some one turn on your main supply for about 15 seconds, just clears out any debris
