[quote=Anonymous]Go to Fergusons or a dedicated shop like Plumbing Parts Plus in Rockville. Make an appointment with a salesperson and have them walk you through this like you're a 5yo learning to read. Unless your plumber is going to open up the walls, you need to know what kind of valve you have in order to buy the right stuff that will work with it. If you're opening up the walls, you can choose whatever you want. One of the key question is whether you have/want thermostatic or pressure-balance valve. But even among those choices, a thermostatic valve from one company may not work with the trim kit from another company. So it's important to have someone who can guide you. I did 3 bathrooms in 2021 and the shower stuff is more complicated than it should be. Good luck![/quote]
