I have an original single-handle shower faucet that I believe is failing, allowing cold supply water to run across to the hot side and make the temperature almost impossible to control (hot water barely lukewarm).
The faucet is shown in the first pic. I believe it is a Pfister 971-250. But I don't know what cartridge goes behind it, and I can't yet tear it down because I have no separate hot water cutoff. Would the failure be in the mixer or balancer?
The possible replacement tandem I found is photographed below. Is this the right pair, or are other cartridges possible?
Thanks!
