    Help needed for identifying shower mixing cartridge
    My basement was finished in 2008, about 6 months ago the water in the shower went from hot to warm, even when I turn the mixer to the hottest position. I disassemble the valve and take out the cartridge, but there is no part numbers on the shower or any of the parts. I couldn't find the cartridge in Home Depot or Lowe's. Can anyone help me identify this shower cartridge!

    Pretty sure that is a GROHE cartridge assembly.

    Contact grohe to confirm:

    GROHE - European designed Kitchen Faucets, Bathroom Faucets & Showers

    A local plumbing supplier may also be able to help with parts identification.

    There is no brand name. I can only find "Selection" on the cover slate, nothing else.
