Jerich 19940 Pressure Balancing Cartridge Tub Shower

Product Description

The JERICH 19940 is a single-lever pressure balancing cartridge designed for tub and shower valve bodies. It maintains a consistent mix of hot and cold water under fluctuating supply pressures, protecting against sudden temperature swings during normal household water use. This type of cartridge is a direct-replacement service part installed by licensed plumbers during routine valve maintenance or after wear-related failure. The 19940 is built to restore proper valve function without replacing the entire valve body, making it a practical repair solution for tub and shower applications.

This cartridge is suited for residential tub and shower installations using Danze or Gerber single-handle pressure balancing valves. It is the appropriate service part when the existing cartridge shows signs of leaking, sticking, inconsistent temperature control, or reduced water flow. Plumbers typically encounter this replacement during service calls on existing Danze or Gerber valve installations in bathrooms.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off the water supply to the valve at the nearest isolation valve or main before beginning service. Remove the handle, trim, and retaining clip before extracting the old cartridge, and note the orientation prior to removal to ensure correct reinstallation of the replacement. Work performed on shower valves may be subject to local plumbing code requirements under the IPC or applicable state amendments.
