Moen M Pact PosiTemp Pressure Balancing Brass Tub and Shower Valve with IPS Connections, 2510

Purchased a Moen Asceri Posi-Temp Single Handle Tub & Shower Trim Kit quite some time ago but neglected to buy the rough in valve which was not included. This product is very well made but before purchasing it is important to know if you have copper pipes or not. If you do not and your pipes are threaded you would need this 2510 Pressure Balancing Valve that is threaded IPS (Iron Pipe Size). Copper connections are typically soldered and this valve would not work for your application. If you do have copper pipes the Moen 2520 Posi-Temp Pressure Balancing Tub and Shower Valve that is soldered would be the correct one for you to purchase. Both models have 1/2 " connections and both come with Moen's Limited Lifetime Warranty for residential use.

This thing really sticks. I wanted to adjust the placement slightly but that won't happen. It is permanent. Just be sure to put it in the right place. You won't be moving it.

This is a standard valve for moen. If you are doing a shower and tub it is perfect, if you are just doing a shower you will need to buy a bronze cap for the lower valve, it is hard if not impossible to find a three instead of a four, much easier to just cap it off.

Everything you’d expect from Moen. Perfect thermodynamic control for any shower.

Replacement for a Delta valve at the daughter's house. I like Moen as they are easy to set up and install. Plus Replacement cartridges down the line are much simpler. Moen is my go to when plumbing valves. 5 star would require a 6 year no problem rating from me.

Install was easy. Be sure to follow instructions to flush the valve to prevent debris causing leaks. Mount the valve on a 1x4 mounted flush with the 2x4 stud and that’ll give about 1/4” space between the handle and the trim.It’s easy to adjust, its flow is comparable to the old two handle faucet I replaced.So far it’s working great and is easy to service if needed.The trim piece used to cover the old two handle valve looks good as well.Tape your connections and you’ll have no leaks. Be sure to follow instructions to remove the valve and purge before use!

Plumber installed with no problems. And it works without leaking.

I offered to replace a leaking shower valve for a friend. Getting to the valve was the hardest part, since the bath sink cabinet was flush with the shower/tub's back wall. After removing it, I was able to access a very old valve that was indeed leaking. With the help of a Sawzall and a copper cutter I was able to get the old unit out. With some PEX and new galvanized piping for the spout I got it in, secured and braced. Got everything put back together, and the shower works great. A little fine-tuning with the temperature limiter, but the amount of water coming out of the shower has vastly improved, and she is happy. A solid unit that works.
