    Default Mystery shower valve?

    Trying to identify make of this valve which came with my friends new home. I suspect its one the home depot specials but have had no luck so far in my searches. The rough valve body in wall is stamped on top-side with GOBO ASE1016 or AS51016. On back of trim plate is a sticker with # 12085. The diverter function is integrated into the valve body. Thought it was an Innova brand by shape of tub spout but after speaking with them its not. They're diverter is a push-button type, not lever. It looks like real heavy-duty brass, I suspected maybe Pegasas but couldn't turn up anything of the like. Any ideas??

    Btw, reason is I need to replace the diverter part, o-ring washer is leaking inside.

    The trim sleeve very much reminds me of HD's Glacier Bay/Pegasus. But the mfg. Globe Union produces identical products under MANY name and no name brands. Give them a call ( number on the side of the box at the depot)

    Thanks for the lead. Previous owner was definitely a DYI'er, and not a good one at that by the rest of the home so that^^^ fits the bill.

    Danze, (although Costco's "WaterRight" brand is exactly the same and interchangeable). Go to Danze.com, find your valve, (probably #D113001BT), then call their customer service with the part number, (DA603819 plus the "color".). they may send it under their "lifetime" warranty. if not it is $25.00

    Just got off the phone with a cust serv rep at Danze. Apparenty I was in the system from years ago, they're sending two versions of the part,free. Never expected such an easy experience. I expect it from brands like grohe and moen, not home depot house brands.

    Danze is not a "Home Depot" brand, but the identical faucet under different names is. The Danze pull out kitchen faucet is $400.00, but the WaterRight version from Costco is $80.00. Go figure.
