Jerich 12500 Pressure Balancing Valve Stem Assembly

Product Description

The JERICH 12500 is a pressure balancing valve stem assembly designed for use in shower and tub-shower mixing valve systems. It maintains a balanced ratio between hot and cold water supply pressures, protecting against sudden temperature swings caused by pressure fluctuations elsewhere in the plumbing system. This assembly serves as a direct service or replacement component within the valve body and is typically installed by licensed plumbers during new construction, renovation, or repair work.

The 12500 is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a pressure balancing cartridge or stem assembly requires replacement. It fits into the valve body to restore proper pressure-balancing function without requiring full valve replacement. Consult the valve manufacturer documentation to confirm fitment before installation.

Key Features

• Pressure balancing design protects against hot or cold water pressure fluctuations
• Stem and seat assembly construction allows in-place valve service without full body replacement
• Engineered for use in tub and shower mixing valve applications
• Direct replacement format reduces installation time during service calls

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement stem assembly for pressure balancing tub and shower mixing valves. Verify valve body make and model against JERICH part documentation before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and relieve line pressure before disassembling the valve body. Avoid using excessive force when seating the stem assembly, as this may damage internal sealing surfaces. Inspect the valve body for wear or corrosion before installing the replacement stem.
