I attempted to replace the cartridge in our Delta T13022 because it had not been done in many, many years and was leaking. Due to the hard water in Phoenix it was corroded beyond repair. I called my local plumber who has done good work for us over the years on projects beyond my skills.
The retro repair required some tile removal, but the large cover plate covers perfectly. The kit installed was the Chateau Chrome Posi-Temp® Eco-Performance Tub/Shower. Anyway, the problem is the water pressure with the new valve is about half of that with the Delta. The shower head is like a Waterpik handheld. It was not changed out and I had removed the flow restrictor years ago.
Any idea why the pressure would be so different?
Thanks for your thoughts.
