    The trim says this is a peerless valve, but it does not have the set screw on the side of the handle, it has the screw directly in the end of the handle which I removed.

    I am unable to remove the handle to get to the cartridge...

    Helllllllp.... please...

    Do I need a puller device to pull it off if it is corroded in place?
    I think I'll need to go to the hardware store tomorrow to buy a shower handle puller.
    I think it is simply corroded in place

    The puller did the trick. It was simply corroded in place.


    I just left you another small tip in your tip jar for your kind help :0)
