We've replaced the stem valve in the hot water side of the shower. It works alright until the sink is turned on then water starts running again. Any ideas? Help!Replaced stem valve (including washer) in shower faucet but still leaking?
i agree with answer # 2 you still have one more step to do, that is replacing the seat you will need a seat tool usually comes in 2 sizes and you really can't see what size you need so buy both tools. seat is in the stem housing use a flash lite you will see it its brass will have a octagon shaped hole to insert tool to remove it. now you know 4-sure!!Replaced stem valve (including washer) in shower faucet but still leaking?
Probably go ahead and replace the valve seat. Also, if it is leaking around the stem, the packing my be bad and needs to be replaced.
Just replace the whole faucet. It will save you trouble in the long run.
