Hi all,
Replaced a 1225 cartridge a little over a year ago and this last week it started to leak. It only leaks in the middle position, all hot or cold (in the off position) seals it shut.
I took off the trim and it has the same behavior with pliers moving the cartridge as the handle, so it's not the trim binding or pushing on it funny.
It is a Moen brand, but bought at HD, not sure if they make a "cheapo" version for HD like some other products, but I would imagine this would last more than a year.
1) Anything I should check in addition to the cartridge?
2) Should I go with a 1200 (all brass) instead this time?
3) I heard they will warranty the cartridge -- how does one go about doing this?
Thanks,
Anthony
