I am remodeling two bathrooms in my house. I just installed a Moen posi-temp (with stops) valve in one of them. The installation instructions recommended removing the cartridge and flushing the valve before running water with the cartridge installed. Even though I had the stop tube in place, it was still difficult to get the water to just go in the tub and prevent the water from leaking around the valve and into the wall behind the valve. I have another valve to install in the other bathroom. Any suggestions as to how to accomplish this without leaking water all over the place?
