Here's the details..My water softener messed up sending tiny little orange beeds througout the house in all of the waterlines. I was able to clear out all of the junk from the faucets and toilets, but now the showers have lost pressure. I am assuming some of that junk is in the valve in the wall? I can't seem to take that apart. I have a single unit Delta brand in both bathrooms. Is there some kind of cartridge in there I will need to replace? Is that valve soldered into the wall or can I unscrew it somehow?
The first check should be the shower head. Remove it and turn on the water. If you get a good flow out of the shower arm, then the head is plugged. If you can't take it apart to clean, then replace it. Delta tub and shower valves have a ball and seats inside. They are very easy to disassemble and repair. The valves could be either soldered or screwed. Either way, to remove it would mean cutting the piping to the valve and the shower head and tub spout. I believe that you can fix the problem without removing the valve.
We review changing a Sediment Water Filter Cartridge and give some key tips and tricks on how to get the best use out of your whole house water ...
Is there anything I can do w/o a plumber? I have the water turned off to the whole house and don't really want to leave it off until tomorrow.
Unless you can access the rear and plug off the supply pipe(s), you are gonna be without water until you get a plumber!
Can't say for sure, but you are probably gonna lose some wall to gain access, so you could go ahead and open up the wall to get to the pipes. You could cut them off and solder caps, or even crimp the ends and solder if you are capable of that.

Changed the cartridge but no hot water.Another faucet in the same bath has hot water as does the rest of the house.
Check the shut off valve, and make sure water is flowing through it. Sometimes they break, and even though you turn the handle, no water comes out. Disconnect the supply line from the faucet, and put it in a bucket, and turn the valve on to check the flow of water through it. Good luck!

The faucet is almost 5 years old and came with the new house.
I removed the handle , however, I could not remove the cover to expose the interior parts. Delta sent me a cartridge to replace, but no instructions how to install
cheked the delta website. no instruction how-to dis-assemble
Take a cresent wrench or a pipe wrench and loosen the nut that is around the stem. Use a towel in the jaws of the wrench so you won't mess up the chrome or other finish that it has. Good luck. If you need further assistance, go down to the hardware store and have them give you instructions or show you how it's done.
I have already established the type of shower handle I'm working with, the age is only 6 years old, and I have the right Moen Cartridge #1222 to make the replacement.
My lines seem to work fine. In a rarely-used bathroom, the taps at the sink work HOT and COLD. In the shower, the taps only run HOT. There's a crusted blockage of hard water in the cold line and I need to clean it or replace it.
I have shut off the water, removed the handle, removed the pieces down to the cartridge and removed the U shaped pin that holds it in place.
The handle was in the OFF position. I then proceeded to try to tug out the old cartridge and it wouldn't budge.
I went to the store and bought the new cartidge and read the instructions and even had a 'old cartridge removal tool' which didn't make the cartridge budge a bit.
I have extremely hard water and it has caused my COLD water opening in the cartridge to become blocked, therefore I need to replace this or never have any cold water going to my shower.
I cannot get the STUPID CARTRIDGE OUT, I'm going to pull out my hair!! How can I get this thing out? What am I doing wrong? What can I do to encourage a crusty stuck in place cartridge to come out so I can put the new one in! Please help!
Call Moen customer support...they'll probably send you a new cartridge too, as thgat unit should have a lifetime warranty.

We all know its imperative to change the filter replacement cartridge in regular intervals depending on the specifications provided by the manufacturer. These days water pollution has reached unprecedented levels. The amount of chlorine and pesticides in unfiltered water renders it useless for drinking and cooking purposes. Moreover, these chemical deposits also cause the filter cartridges in your water filtration system to become redundant after some time. Hence, filter replacement cartridges need to be replaced regularly to get the best out of your filtration system.
A majority of people seem to think that water filters are a unneeded luxury. With the many pollutants in the water now it is important to always filter water. This is the best way to avoid disease and illness found in water. So today finding a good water filter replacement cartridge is also essential.
Despite it’s tedious association, changing water filters really isn’t that difficult. For multi cartridge filters, you can get away with longer periods between changes. A typical water filter will require changing only two or three times a year, depending on the amount of filtering it is performing.
