    Altmans Suite 10 Tub Faucet

    Thanks for the reply. I have checked the Altman web site and it appears to be brochures for their current products. The faucet I have was installed about 1993 and is not listed in their catalog. I cannot determine how to take it apart. I can take off the decorative parts, but cannot get the...

    Altmans Suite 10 Tub Faucet

    Installing a new Moen 1200 cartridge

    After getting some good information from this site, I removed the cartridge from my Moen shower valve and purchased a new 1225 cartridge. I tried to install it, but it would not go in the last 1/2 inch. In removing it I destroyed it. I now have a 1220 that is also short of all the way in by...
