Can't seem to find the make of this shower cartridge. I'd like to remove it and take it to my hardward store. Newbie here, could you tell me how I remove it? Do I unscrew the screws? Or do I use a plumbers wrench to twist the whole component?

Please advise

Successfully removed! Took it to my hardware store, they've never seen anything like it. No company name marked on it. Repeat, no company name marked - only indicators are patent numbers? Pat 124341 ccf401940

Can anyone help to identify?

That is the pressure balancing unit, and it is very possible that IT is the cause of the leak because they can come apart at the seam. I might try a Kohler gp500520, or Pfister old style PBU to see if they are generic enough to fit it.
