r/Plumbing on Reddit: Confirm new Cartridge or just handle? And is this a moen 1200 or 1225?
February 19, 2024 -
The other day the turn on this shower was very stuck. I managed to move it, but now the max hot is not as hot as it used to be (and not hot enough to shower) .
As I took it apart, I discovered the back of handle was broken. I think I was still able to move it to the max position, but it's possible it wasn't moving the actual cartridge. Other faucets are OK so I know it's not the water heater. Do you think just replacing the handle might fix the problem?
I'll first try to replace the handle... Though it might have broken bc the cartridge was sticky. Can someone help identify the right cartridge in case I need to? And am I on the right diagnosis path here? Also I've never replaced this but I'm decently handy... Any tips would be appreciated!
From what I can tell I don't have shutoff at the valve so I'd need to shut off the whole house water to replace (we don't have individual bathroom shutoffs). I'd like to avoid a cartridge replacement if it can bc if I fail at it, I'm out of luck until a professional can come repair my mess.
The house was built in 1993 in Texas. I'm not positive if this bathroom has been redone... It's definitely gotten a face-lift but the tile seems original.
Lastly, is there a replacement handle without valve change that is more lever action? This one turns right/left and the straight out to increase water flow. This shape is hard for my kid to use (also might be bc the cartridge is a little hard to move for a youngster)
Thanks

Moen 1225 cartridge. You can google moen 1225 handle as well. But it's always going to operate the same way. You need to watch some youtube videos before you tackle this, because it can go downhill quick.

1225. Basic 1225 is the plastic cartridge. Or 1225b is brass. Either of those will work.

r/DIY on Reddit: Replacing Moen Shower Cartridge
August 3, 2023 -
I'm replacing an ancient Moen shower cartridge at my girlfriend's house and I'm stuck. I got the old one out surprisingly easily and the new one (#1225) slid right in. However, I can't manage to get the flat brass locking pin (kind with two legs) to slide in to lock the cartridge in place. It feels like I'm getting solid resistance on both sides despite having lined the notches up as carefully as possible and making sure the new cartridge is seated all the way in. It almost feels as if the new cartridge is a mm or so longer than the old one.
I'm considering using a file or hacksaw blade to widen the slot for the locking pin a little. Any other ideas?

Double check the old seal did not stay in the valve body. Compare the old w the new unit to verify all pieces are out. Also grease the seals on the new unit. Do NOT cut it. It will fit if it’s the right unit

Years of doing these have taught me two things. Always replace with kind.. don't switch styles. And always buy actual moen replacements. The Ace brand ones (made by Lasco I think?) Don't last two years.
