You may need to remove the cartridge and and have someone turn the water on to flush debris out of the line. You might be able to use aluminon foil to prevent water from going into the wall or something like that. You may have to replace the cartridge again.

See if this link helps with temperature adjustment:

I can't help you with your immediate problem, but clearly you would benefit by a whole-house filter. I like the bigger Pentek Big Blue housings, which can take a variety of cartridges.
