Looks to be Price Phister. It's four hours round trip to a hardware store at this location.
What do you think hj?

Pfister Contempera, wiht integral stops so it is probably an apartment unit.

It's in a building with only one main shutoff and about fifteen units time three. Buildings that is.
You have mentioned converting to washerless before on this. How do you get those parts?

You cannot do it with that valve because they do not make an escutcheon that works with the integral stops. Since that valve has integral stops, you don't have to worry about shutting off the whole building, unless they are frozen and don't work.

Thanks. Looks like I will be using the old standard rebuild stems then.
Yes. I love that they have the stops for these.

The plumbers before before us soldered on all the angle stops, so changing them out close to a wall is a little dicey.

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
