VIDEOClick to see full answer. Thereof, how do you remove a shower valve?To replace a shower valve, start by unscrewing the shower handle and trim plate, so you can remove them. Then, shut the water off and cut a hole in the small opening behind the trim plate, so you can reach the valve. Using needlenose pliers, remove the valve clip and pull the valve out of the wall.Furthermore, are shower valves universal? They are all universal and all Delta Shower Trim Kits will fit every single one of these valves. People also ask, what is a shower stem? A two-handle stem shower faucet has a stem with a washer that presses against a seat to seal off water. A three-handle unit adds a stemlike diverter to direct water up to the shower or down to the tub spout.Are shower cartridges universal?Cartridges aren’t interchangeable among different faucets, so if you decide you need a replacement, you need to know its part number so you can order it from your plumbing supplier or online. That number is usually available on the manufacturer’s website in the online version of the owner’s manual for your faucet.
