Thanks. I've got a GP77886 valve, and the faceplate is getting bent/stripped by the screws. Can't find one anywhere. I figured I could just replace it with a GP77759 valve with faceplate.. but I can't find a faceplate/handle for those either. So I'll just order the replacement valve and cartridge and then hammer the faceplate back into shape. heh.

Had the gp800820 installed, and only issue is low water pressure (50% of normal).. might it be installed the wrong way around cold - hot side reversed (writing up or down?) since there are notches both top and bottom? home improvement stores only carry the 800820. This is connecting to a gp77886.

Just replaced mine gp77759 with the gp8008200 but now it seems like their isn’t enough hot as I used to have. I have full variable temp through the whole range but it’s like I have to turn the handle up hotter than before through the entire range. Where I used to not go above say 9oclock for my hot now I’m running up to about Full hot. Not sure if maybe it’s that rear piece possibly misaligned or maybe I should go with the aftermarket cartridge.

@@PlumbingPartsPro I need to get the generic. It’s still doing it and I also had another issue start right after I replaced it with the updated one. Whenever I turn on my sink and toilet is filling up or run my hose outside my pipes start vibrating and water starts coming out of the spout in the tub when it’s completely off. I can open it wait till the toilet stops or if it’s the hose shut it off but open the shower spout and wait till those stop and close it back and it’s fine. It’s crazy but it never did that before. I don’t know for sure it’s related it could be some water pressure issue or something but it’s just odd it started right after I replaced that.

My bathroom has just a walk-in shower and no tub. I had to change the mixer as hot water was not flowing from the head. I replaced with a new Kohler GP 77759 valve cap and a GP800820 Pressure balancing valve cartridge. I tested the flow without the shower head and was all fine. But now, the flow of water does not stop when the shower head (massager) is connected even when the knob is turned off. If I remove the shower head (unscrew and remove massager) and then the water stops when I turn the knob the off, but with a jerk and sound. Is the due to some pressure gradient? How to fix this? Thank You. SSM
