Questions & Answers

What is the total length of the piece? you're trying to replace a 2 1/4" one?

Hello, Steve. These come in a variety of designs. If you are unsure about the model, you should take it to a plumbing store and have it matched up. For me, this is a dead ringer. It has threads on the bottom end to screw into the faucet or plumbing side, as well as threads on the top side to allow the cover to be screwed on once the insert is in place. As a result, thread sizing, as well as length, amount of turn, and direction of turn, are critical on both sides. These are available in both right and left handed versions for on-the-go use. the wrong way around One is usually cold, while the other is hot, and the seats are even blue for cold and red for hot. I also took measurements for you. From top to bottom, it measures 2 1/8". I believe the main thread is a 1/2" NPT, which means the outer thread is almost 3/4" in diameter. Best wishes on your travels! When it comes to locating and replacing items, it's never easy. Rob, yours truly

Is this valve (number 45 883 000) intended for use with the Aquadis L20607?

The Aquadis L20607 cartridge cannot be used instead of this one.

For a Ladglux faucet, what cartridge should I use?

Is it Ladylux that you are referring to? If that's the case, this isn't it. You can send an email to the company and ask for the part number or a partlist with the instructions.

When the valve is completely shut off, does the water still flow?

Is it true that you just replaced your valve insert with this one, but it still leaks? If this is the case, the valve insert does not appear to be fully seated, or else this is not the correct insert replacement for your faucet. In the shut-off position, no water should be able to get through. It was because of the issue you describe that I had to replace my old insert. , the water would not completely turn off. For me, the new insert solved the problem right away.

Selected User Reviews For Grohe Ceramic Cartridges

So, my Grohe kitchen faucet started leaking on the hot water side, and thankfully, I had saved the pamphlet that came with the faucet ten years ago, and I was able to get the part numbers

5/5

The link to the valve (s) was discovered to be on Amazon. Just to be sure, I ordered both the left and right sides. At first, it was difficult to remove the valve - The handle has a proclivity for becoming stuck. To begin, turn off the water and unscrew the small cap on top of the water handle, then loosen the screw that holds it in place. For a few days, I was stuck at this point before realizing it was simply stuck. I tapped upwards with a small hammer while using a flat screwdriver underneath it. It came off all of a sudden. The housing was removed with a 17mm wrench and some inner tube rubber and vice grips, and the valve was released with a 17mm wrench. I replaced the old one, applied a little plumber's sealant, and reinstalled it. It worked perfectly except for the fact that the off valve had been pushed back parallel to the wall, whereas before both valves had been pulled forward for off. I'm not sure why they were acting like that; it didn't make sense to me. So I put in the cold valve and "Bob's my uncle," everything works fine.

I bought both stems - it's not a Grohe part

3/5

for both the hot and cold sides of the equation The cold side began leaking through the spout one day after they were installed (the handles were leaking before the stems were replaced). The drip turned into a steady trickle before long. After hiring a plumber who was unable to resolve the issue, I went to a local plumbing supply store to confirm my suspicions. The stem I bought from the supply store came in a box with the Grohe logo on it, and the stem itself was stamped with "Grohe" and "Germany. " This vendor's stem lacks these markings, and the rubber washer on the bottom is black, whereas this vendor's stem is blue for cold. The Grohe stem is a quarter inch longer as well. There was no longer any leak after I installed the stem from the supply store. br>Because I searched for the part number listed in the faucet installation instructions, I am confident that I ordered the correct part. Also, the hot side, which arrived in the same order, is fine. I have a feeling these aren't genuine Grohe parts. As the adage goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words. " What you pay for is exactly what you get.

Leaks need to be replaced

5/5

We bought two and they worked perfectly to fix our shower leak. The cost of doing the repair ourselves was well worth it. I had no problems installing them in the shower. I'd double-check the sizes required and make any necessary adjustments. The fact that they are available on the market does not imply that they are a problem. I only had to pay $14 for each of them.

For me, a Grohe part from Germany is a must

5/5

I'm not sure about yours, but the part I got was 100% a Grohe part made in Germany. Instructions provided by Grohe. Box made by Grohe. br>br>The instructions say to pull the knob off, then screw it in by hand, then torque to 40Nm MAX with a 17mm wrench. If you don't have a torque wrench, 40Nm (less than 30 ft lbs) isn't much. br>br>Perhaps some of those who report leaks are overworking themselves?.

This is a fantastic purchase at an even better price! This was purchased prior to the arrival of the plumber

5/5

If they must install their own, they charge a premium. This is an excellent purchase that performs admirably.

it was a success These Grohe valves were purchased to retrofit a Grohe two valve single spout kitchen faucet from the 1970s

5/5

It was the most straightforward plumbing repair I'd ever encountered. The new valves were threaded in perfectly. Grohe washers are no longer required to be purchased on an annual basis. Mom now has a better design and castings on her old Grohe faucet, as well as ceramic valves that are nearly foolproof to operate. The best part is that I won't have to disassemble the valve every year to replace Grohe washers, which are ridiculously expensive. Yea!.
