I replaced the cartridge and pressure balancing unit (PBU) on a Kohler k-305 tub /shower faucet. The faucet now leaks hot water while turned off when a nearby faucet is running hot water. The original PBU GP500520 was replaced with the new "compatible" version GP800820.
The installation was very straight-forward so I am assuming either a bad part or the replacement PBU is not compatible. Any thoughts?
