Agreed it's a pain to verify, I wrote the part number on the back of the wall plate after replacing mine last week. But if it's a faucet from a major brand, it might be on their website. It seems like each one only has a few different sizes. Answer from Firehed on reddit.com

Is there an easy way to tell what shower cartridge you need by just looking at the end that sticks out the wall?

How does your shower function? Can you turn on your shower head and shower wand at the same time? Like 1, 2, 1+2? Or is it just one or the other? If the former, then you would call them and ask for a two way cartridge. If not, then call them and ask for a one way cartridge. I forget the codes but it's one or the other. One way, or two way cartridge. More on reddit.com

r/Plumbing on Reddit: Riobel shower valve cartridge identification
June 28, 2024 -

Anyone know how to identify the right replacement cartridge for a Riobel shower valve? I don't have the model of the valve. All I have is this install guide that the previous owners of this home left behind.

I had a plumber here for a separate problem, and asked him to look at this shower because the hot water has always had a lot less pressure than the cold. He suggested replacing the cartridge as a first step, but he doesn't work with Riobel usually so he couldnt offer advice on finding the right one since we don't know the valve model.
