Description
The Kohler GP500520 is the original-equipment cartridge for Kohler Rite-Temp single-handle shower valves, Kohler's pressure-balancing anti-scald platform.
The tell-tale symptoms that this cartridge needs replacing: the shower drips when off, the water turns hot when someone flushes a toilet or runs a tap elsewhere, or the handle has gotten stiff. Pressure-balancing cartridges wear gradually over years of use, so a replacement typically returns the shower to like-new operation, restoring both the seal and the temperature stability the anti-scald valve is meant to provide.
Tools: a 1/8-inch hex wrench, a Phillips screwdriver, and adjustable pliers. It is a moderate DIY job — shut off the water to the shower before pulling the old cartridge — and worth confirming your valve is a Rite-Temp before ordering, since the cartridge must match the valve body.
